That has just given me the fear.

And yes, the cars are not pretty.

Unbelievably bad luck right off the back of a stupid mistake in the pits - such a shame as Conway was driving a blinder before that.

Gutted for Will Power (still the best name ever, btw biggrin), crap way to end such a big race. Can't believe how calm Helio was on the radio, you'd think he'd just hit a bug or something!

Terrifying seeing those wheels bouncing around all over the show, they really do need to get some tethering mandated.

Seems the concerns regarding the cars lifting on impact haven't been totally resolved. Granted Power did rather scoop Conway up, but even so, the car did seem to lift when it hit the wall. Seeing that car riding the wall with the cockpit facing the fence has given me the heebie jeebies.

Argh! Adverts.

Will the Ganassi boys work together, or will they be allowed to fight it out?

They'll be on very short leashes, with a little bit of freedom IMO. It's all about the team at this stage.

Hoping Dario gets it here too.
