Great to see Romain's passion for the sport and desire to get back in the car. Looked propper annoyed at the officials hussling him away from his burning brakes.

Quite rightly he didn't hang around getting out of the car!

I was amazed when he went back to the car with an extinguisher. That man has no fear bone!

There will be a Grosjean-Magnussen rekindling at Road America this weekend. Kevin Magnussen is stepping in to the Arrow McLaren car of Felix Rosenqvist as he has not been cleared to race following a medical evaluation. Be interesting to see how he goes, proper track as well.

I think this is KMag’s first turn in the car and on the track if I’m not mistaken? No surprise he’s easing into it.

Got to love Road America. The pit lane looks very "rustic".

Looks like Newgarden caught Power's luck from Detroit R1. Really good race and what a track!

Especially when they all try and exit at once during safety car. Lets just say a few "unsafe releases" in f1 context! Gotta love indycar!

Who is this bloke covering the commercial breaks?

Sounds like he's in his downstairs loo.

We've resorted to turning the TV to mute when he comes on, he's doing my nut in, I think my swearing at him is what's prompted hubby to reach for the remote laugh

He sounds terrible, he mispronounces everything and he knows about as much as me, and that's not much! But I know how to pronounce driver names and teams.rolleyes
