Hard to comment on the second one cause we can´t see the entire incident.

First one however is very clear and should have been penalized for´avoidable contact´. Just no excuse for running into the back of the car in front of you...

Except for missing your braking point or the car in front of you hitting the brakes early....

One thing I noticed during this broadcast was that I got a sense of the speed these cars are pulling, while watching the P1 battle. I was watching the TV telecast of the lead battle and was thinking "holy crap, these cars are flying".

I'm not sure what, if anything, the TV crews did different this race, but I got a sense of the speed these cars can do. In most of the other races, I don't get that sense of speed.

I felt that sense of speed as well. Although, having the commentators basically yelling doesn't hurt either.

I remember the race at Mosport and how "slow" the cars looked on the back straight.

Maybe these tv guys are listening to us! We had a lengthy discussion about it a while ago.

In the meantime, Baltimore is creeping up on us quickly, we should probably get the race thread up soon (I would make it myself, but it seems the admins want to make it standardized like the first page here so I will wait)
