I watched today's race from Watkins Glen on my DVR. Watching Simona's wreck I waited for the arrival of the safety team in anticipation of seeing a marked improvement.
There wasn't.
I re-winded and timed it.
From the time the Yellow came on on the ABC feed till the arrival of the Safety Team truck a excruciating 1:23.5 past.
I realize that on a road course it can take a little longer than on an Oval but almost one and a half minutes is unacceptable.
