You know that same rule that applies to the Chicago Cubs (Cronulla Sharks too if you're from Sydney) #kamuikobayashi

But it should be a rule for Japanese drivers to be run over by an ambulance after crashing. #kamuikobayashi

Nonetheless, Kobayashi's performances this year have been impressive, especially impressive when you contrast it with all the other mid-year replacements who can't seem to get their cars off the back row. Were it not for a mistake at the end of Q2, he'd probably have been into Q3, which is incredible for a rookie. Nonetheless, qualifying 11th on your first race is commendable, as is running in the podium places at the beginning. It's very interesting that Kobayashi has been so impressive in F1 in his brief glimpses because he's been absolutely nowhere in GP2.
Kobayashi could well turn out to be what Takuma Sato would've been if Sato had started karting at an age earlier than 19 (which is the F1 debut age for some people on the grid). #kamuikobayashi

Anyway ramming into the rear of a car is no means to over take it. #kamuikobayashi

Shit-tons of LeMons coverage, but no LeMans coverage? Riddle me that.

Coverage: Despite being rained out (and on, in my case) it was magnificent racing. The Audi's ruled the wet, passing from the second row on the outside of turn one. But the Peugeots reeled them in in the dry. In GT2, the Vettes, Porsches, Ferrari and BMWs were all on pace. The new Drayson prototype lost a wheel, but had sufficient chassis stiffness to be driven back to the pits, was rebuilt, and continued racing, giving a surprise win over the rebuilt Patron ARX-02 for 'heroic fix of the weekend'. Though we lost out on the 'now or never' intensity that comes at the end of the race, the massive spray in the wake of the screaming field was awe inspiring and beautiful.
And F1, according to my father, looked like they were racing in a garage.

What sponsorship did Renault lose to have the blue taken off their suits? Cause it looks really bland compared to last years suits.

OK, points taken but I still think he's the worst.

I'd look at more of the pictures, but the gallery software still sucks. Let's roll out a new one—one that works, one that makes sense—by Friday, OK? Good!
