A taste of Indy.

He's being "Let Loose now" ? F1 obviously had the animal on a leash or something.

 

Nice solid start... Can't complain or expect a whole lot more than that.

 

Really impressed with how thorough he is and how much he's willing to work on aspects outside just bombing around.

 

The Fonze has many faults, but a mug he is not! He's done us F1 lot good by all accounts but I haven't a clue about this oval stuff - some may say the same about F1

 

His dual bird wipeout was particularly impressive..

 

110 laps and top speed of 220mph with hardly any twitches. He will be just fine. But should remember the race isn't won on lap 1.

I like his openness about being a novice again...

Humility, keeping things in perspective, but also quiet confidence. And I'm sure the other elite F1 drivers would be similar.

Whatever the outcome, I hope the whole experience gives him the lift that he needs, after Honda's woeful start to this F1 season.

Seems like he's enjoying it so far.

 

I expect him to do well based on today.

 

McHonda should worry he likes it too much and goes to Indy for 2018.

 

That's what I'm worried about too. (With all due respect to Indy. )

 

I'll gladly have him here full time.

 

How's our boy doing Sgt?

 

Sadly haven't been keeping an eye on... Been slammed this morning. About to try take a bit of a break and see what's going on.

 

Let us know what the yanks think mate

 

Looks to be doing pretty solid so far!

And will do!

 

Cheers bud

 

No problem!

Green flag dropped, practice under way

 

I was talking about this race last night, and for some reason I had a really good feeling that Alonso might just actually win this thing. Maybe it was just the booze!
