USGP As Per Jeff Wunrow - And PhotosToo.
Mornin' Guys,
I was hoping I'd see you guys at the USGP last week. What a great race
weekend. I'd have to say it was the biggest crowd we've had except for
maybe the first year. My guess would be at least 200.000 people on
race day and close to 125,000 for Quali. I sure hope Bernie and Tony
can come to long term agreement for the future of the race.
It's funny, if all you saw was the race, you would have thought that
Hamilton dominated the weekend. In reality he was never better than
second quick and the end of every session. In fact, Alanso also had
the fasted lap of Quali, his time is Q2 was faster then Lewis. Then
of course in the race, Lewis was able to hold Fernando off going in to
turn 1, not once but several times and that my friends was the race.
What can you say about Hamilton. He is by far the best at late
breaking of anyone currently in F1. Combine that with his balls of
steel and there was nothing short of a mistake on his park would have
created on opening for Alonso to pass him.
I'm sticking with my predictions (because I have to, that's why they
call them predictions!) for the season. I still think there is a good
chance that Alonso will win the championship, On the constructors
side, I'm hopefull that the tide is finally turning and the Renault
boys results of the last two races will continue into the European
races. All in all it's a great season so far. What an awesome time to
be an F1 fan.
I've finally had a chance to go through and organize my images from
the race. I've posted quite a few of them on my web site at
http://homepage.mac.com/jeff_wunrow/PhotoAlbum98.html, and I've also
uploaded at least one shot of each driver on to the Formula Pod photo
page.
Brett, you mentioned in the last show that you moved from Bend, OR.
Were did you end up? Take care guys.
