You know what’s missing these days in open-wheel racing?

Salt Walther-style fiery crashes. Seems like that stuff happened almost every year when i was a kid.

I’m ok without dudes dying.

I was watching most recently the races where Dan Wheldon, Justin Wilson, and Jules Bianchi died, and those were plenty.

I’ll say this. The number of ads this year feel like far more than usual, and they used to be split screen, but now the ad takes up a lot more of the screen. I’m calling it for Newgarden right now.

And there’s a spectacular crash.

Of course I don’t want anyone to die.

With the safe fuel cells they have, if you see a fireball, someone has a good shot at dying.

Ol’ Zak Brown at Indy today, eff that.

APM’d be in Monaco 100 out of 100 times.

That said, good luck Mclaren.

Without watching, 1973 was horrible iirc

I was at MB as it was 'first week' for me - so 50 years ago Papa G was a graduate of AHS, high winds were coming thru and we left for MB around 1 in the morning. I do remember beer in the car and someone peeing in a bottle. LOL.

We tried to watch the race, but iirc it kept getting delayed and I am not sure it was ever finished? Did 2 or 3 drivers die?
