I remember Hunt taking the piss out of Senna as late as 90 saying he makes stupid mistakes far too often, which is a pretty fair assessment.

Aggressive driving styles will do that.

Im thinking Aero God newey has pulled a trick, knowing he has 2 drivers that dont mind scrapping for the win may have sacrificed his "Qualify P1 and drive away" philosophy in favor of a car designed to work well in the turbulent air.

Nah it's super sandbagging.

Maybe expect RBR to have some weird new newey-aero they're hiding from the tests.

Its really a shame neither him nor Rossi really made it in formula one. Motherfuck indycar and its ovals.

It's even more worth watching if you're not American, since you won't have to deal with some of the worst television broadcasts the world has ever produced.

Im certainly not an oval fan but i could 100% support the "indy 500" being a f1 points paying round. Its been that way in the past and would be a nice change of pace. My big beef with Indy isnt so much its ovals but its pretty much a spec series. Spec means im not watching, plain and simple
