Just seen that crash on the news. I reckon it happened cause the driver fell asleep. Never seen anything so boring.

Nah I like it, its quite subtle in what the drivers are dealing with, they are quite close to the edge alot of the time...


....although its near the bottom of my list of favourite motor sports. :-\

Did I read one or two where seriously injured? :(  Hopefully not. :)
