Trying to figure out why he opened his visor after the first hit. He seems alright, still waiting on medical clearance.

Probably thought he was going slower than he actually was, as if he briefly thought he was already going slow enough to start thinking about getting out of the car. Would explain why he put his hands back on the steering wheel for a moment between the hits, too.

I would chip in $50 for Buddy. I know the crowd funding thing never works, but I would legit just cut them a check to get some more tracktime. Buddy rules.

I hope they don't do this because I would give them too much money.

I wonder what Alonso will think of the difference between "this is how you run in traffic" and "this is how you run in traffic when nobody, not even the cars about to lose a lap, will want to let you by."

ed- I see Indycar wants to let drivers practice a GWC finish

Sebastian Saavedra was the only one below 220 for the day (not counting Lazier).

But yeah, Happy Hour is fun times. Though tomorrow not so much because they're all going to be in qually setup.

Here is what the fun will be tomorrow:

- Seeing how high speeds are in near-ideal conditions before it rains
- Finding out who has surprising speed
- Seeing how fast Nando goes
- Everyone is a meterologist
- Waiting for the track to dry if/when it does rain
- Seeing how fast everyone is in qualifying trim on a damp, green racetrack
