Lewis swaps to Nascar

[woof]

Seems like Lewis had a great day out - perhaps just what the doctor ordered

Good post, thanks for that.

Thanks for posting this .


Great to see Lewis lighting up the rears and sliding the Nascar around, he really is exceptional in anything.

Excellent stuff. A bit short and sweet with the runs but never expected anything else.

it was really hard to find for some reason - you'd think the sponsors would be making a big deal of it !

Just about sums up the dreadful job Vodafone and their agencies do regarding their investment with McLaren in F1.

That'll be more to do with the fact that the Sprint Cup Cars aren't designed to go in the wet, the wiper is unique to the Nationwide Series

He looks fairly comfortable in the car, I'd like to see more F1 drivers try NASCAR and IndyCar, something a little more frantic than F1!

I believe that this was organised by Mobil 1. Still, they could have publicised it a bit more, I only heard of it through McLaren's own wesbite

"I dont think Lewis has ever driven what they would call a 'tin top' back in jolly old..."

So great to see a Foruma 1 car back at the Glen!


Now if we can just get the other 23 cars over there and get them to call it the US Grand Prix East....

Couldn't agree more.

Cool event. There was discussion of it over on the iracing forums a while back, as Tony Stewart was on learning the boot layout and the car.

I love that he's offered a spot in his annual dirt track race to Hamilton. It would be entertaining to see him in that.
