did you guys wach that race, rigged it was rigged i tell ya so convenient that a car would crash right into another on the last lap when the leader was low on fuel and about to be passed. i think the green team was robbed by the sneaky Brazilians they paid that guy to crash some one needs to smack them in the head with a fire poker  |

Had some money on the race, did you? He wasn't that low on fuel and there was only 1 and a half laps left, so Helio was going to win regardless.  _________________ The Gift of Healing

Did you even wach the post race interviews? the pit crew said "Helio had .4 left on his fuel gauge" when ask how far on a green lap that would get him they said "about a half a lap" there was more than half a lap remaining, if it was green he would have fallen off and lost. hence his secret friend creating a yellow lap condition. |

No, I did not "wach" the post race interviews. The only reason I watched the race at all was because we have all the big sports events on big screen TVs at the Casino.  _________________ The Gift of Healing

I seriously doubt people would be taking out other cars on purpose. Especially after what happened to Dale Earnheart _________________ "Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality." -Jules de Gautier

| NASCAR and Indy are two different things and money corrupts all no matter what terrible things happen to such cool people. i just think a crash on the last lap that ensured an otherwise unattainable victory is just a little to coincidental. but thats probably just me. |

Nascar or Indy, it does not matter. That hit all racing sports because an experienced legend was killed.
I have seen alot of races won that way. And I have also seen the reverse. Andretti had some experience with it in 1993 I believe. He skidded off the road on a winding turn, managed to regain control and pulled ahead of the leader on the shoulder.
The skid gave him ground on the leader and he ended up winning as a result.
I have on tape somewhere one of the most brilliant crashes I have ever seen, and it only took one car to take out about 20-30 cars, without even touching them. Strader spun out at Telledega, one year, created a huge smoke screen, and only 2 cars made it through. The rest were smashing into each other left and right. _________________ "Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality." -Jules de Gautier
