Winners and Losers - Nashville
I hope GP Racer does not feel usurped!
Winners: 1. Dario - finally the luck holds! Deserved victory, strongest car all race - excellent dummy on Carpentier for the win. 2. Carpentier - I think the grin on his face during the post-race interview said it all. Drove strongly and almost held on to 2nd - another boost for RBCR 3. Indycar fans - a DNF for Wheldon raises the possibility of a close championship battle. Losers: 1. Alex Barron - probably tried too hard to hang on to a strong finishing spot 2. Manning - Dario must have dumped his bad luck on Darren 3. Kanaan - on for a strong finish before a bizarre (and worrying) failure. What does everyone else think? |

Quote:
Winners - 1 - RBCR, for really nailing a good strategy, and getting a "podium" finish. Almost had two across. Long overdue! 2 - Begrudgingly, Dario, for running a strong race and hanging tough when it was obvious that the AGR team had some problems. 3 - Dixon, for showing us that he is still alive, and hasn't given up completely. Losers - 1 - Herta, even though he had mechanical problems, it's becoming obvious that he is the weakest link on this team. 2 - Rice, because he has somehow lost all of the magic he had last year. 3 - Team Rahal, for always putting Danica on a different strategy. Is it just to get her lead lap time, thereby increasing her on-air time? |
