Jesus, the balls of these drivers to take a crash like Doohan's (granted, a totally self-inflicted one) and be expected to go out the next day and take the first corner at 160 mph.

That's why it's a young man's sport mostly.  As the drivers age, they start to think about things like that.  I think it's a big part of Checo's downfall.

I have seen some of the worst crashes at half-mile dirt tracks. And it is horrible to see and be so close, physically and emotionally, with the drivers.  One of the worst I ever saw & heard was the night Sammy Swindell slammed right into the back of a push truck.  The sound was scary

Moar fire immediately before the red flag.

Uh. No.

Second car is their downfall.

Checo has point blank said in Spanish interviews that he’s doesn’t think about death or injuries. It’s just not in their DNA…and he said that a year or two ago, with a family.

Just finished watching from the DVR. Pretty interesting. Great lap by Max to pull that pole position. Pretty funny with Lawson and Yuki. Did make me laugh. I’m happy to see the Haas & Williams cars being in the mix.

Max is a wizard. Car's been unimpressive/tricky all week, and he pulls that out of his ass. Don't know if he has much chance of holding off the McLarens (cleanly), but will certainly make things more entertaining.

I just want anyone but Lando to win at this point.

I’m ready for the circus to get back to Europe. These middle-of-the -night races suck. 

Preach.

DVR for sure. Stay out of forums and social media and watch at a normal time in the morning without having a clue as to what happened.
