Yea it didn't quite pay off for him went for it caused a collision and gets penalised for it as per the rules much more straight forward... Although it sometimes isn't quite so straight forward.

And they're off!

And Wilson's already been clouted twice and spun...

Damn.

Yea shame that

Good news for Legge, that engine thing with her and Bourdais was a bit sucky.

Oh Dixon takes the lead.

Guerrilla · 5 Aug 2012 at 19:30

I've been trying to dance between the channels, have gotten pretty good at it since the olympics started

Guerrilla · 5 Aug 2012 at 19:40

Dixon wins it.

Pagenaud is having some good races this season. Good results for Bourdais and TK too

Just caught up with the race this morning.

Was looking to be a nice easy drive for Power until that caution. Was a big incident too. :eek:

Bourdais was looking good before that too, what a difference that engine seems to make

Was a lot of minor contacts throughout the race.

Really pleased for Barrichello, great result

Speaking of engines, for once Simona de Silvestro didn't finish last (though the chaos in front of her helped somewhat).

Here's hoping we won't have any more engine nonsense next season, hopefully Simona will have done enough to secure a different powered drive.

Only one I could see just having a quick look there was 1-3am Monday morning.

Edit:^^ oh I see, cool... Much nicer time.

Guerrilla · 2 Sep 2012 at 20:24

Some good wet running now, few cars stopped out by the looks of it.

Guerrilla · 2 Sep 2012 at 20:56

Pagenaud did well to jump into the lead on that restart.

Sato vs Barrichello for 6th place, battle of the ex-F1 drivers

Was just thinking that

Guerrilla · 2 Sep 2012 at 21:55

Power losing out a couple of places right before the last lap.

Guerrilla · 2 Sep 2012 at 21:57

The championship is real close now!

Another good result for Rubens too :cool:

In other news, Indy Lights driver Stefan Wilson will debut at Fontana driving for Fan Force United Racing, the same team that entered the Indy 500 with Jean Alesi.

Isn't that Justin's brother? Have any idea if they will be running a Lotus engine again?

UK coverage will begin on Sky Sports 1 at 1am on Saturday.

Think I may well record this one then

Hoping it'll be a good race to finish it off, it's a bit of a shame for Franchitti to have not been in the fight for most of the season, not a great way to lose your title.

Yea caught up with it last night...

Was gutted for Power when he crashed out thought that was going to take all the drama out of the race but ended up being pretty eventful with them trying to get his car sorted and restarted

Was a decent race to end the season, feel for Power coming close again, must have thought he had it this year. Pleased for Hunter-Reay though, did what he had to do in the end.

Great result for Carpenter his victory kind of got overshadowed by the Championship battle though.

Shame Barrichello, Wilson and Kanaan all went out... and Sato crashing on the last lap almost like he would have been letting people down if he never
