    How about Kimi Raikkonen - setting competitive times in a rally car until he did a jim Clark and wrecked it by trying too hard in the wrong place.

    When asked about the Speedway he said it was no big deal, just four corners, no problem.

    It did not go down very well - but what else can a successful f1 driver say anyway - he was just telling the truth within his ability.

    Anyone else remmber that interview?

    I wonder where all the NASCAr people are that claimed Montoya's experience on other forms wouldn't apply to NASCAR, and that he would quickly become a "wanna be"?

    I thought it was funny in the race commentary just how often they referred to Montoya being "aggressive" as if he was the only NASCAR driver racing that way. Com'on, were the rest of the field saying "after you", no, after you"?

    Juan pablo really is coming along in NASCARl. He is now seriously in contention in every race, just something goes slightly wrong in each race which denies him a win. But IMO, its only a matter of time before Juans first oval win. He could be on to get in the way of certain drivers in their race for the championship.
    Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.

    He jumped from top 30 machinery all the way to top 5 with DEI know how for plate races.

    Can I get an AMEN, brothers and sisters?

    It sure has me watching NASCAR regularly after a forty+ year hiatus. I had an uncle who raced there in the 60's and watched whenever Wide World of Sports covered it. Since that time I would watch the odd race here and there and always the road course stuff. But now with Juan doing so well, I am watching when I can.
