Don´t get excited I´m not talking about F1.
Saw a great race on Motors TV last night.
Champ cars from Denver.
Young French driver Sebastian Bourdais started on pole got punted off the track on the first bend by his team mate Junquera.
Having dropped almost to the back of the field he went on a mission the likes of which F1 has not seen in years. No pitstop tactics (they all have to pit at certain intervals) or anything like that just a desire to win and no fear of actually doing the unheard of in F1 ,overtaking!!!
One overtaking manouver after another until 8 laps from the end he got past Paul Tracy and took the win.

Absolutely brilliant stuff.
I hope you were watching Bernie because that is what F1 was like in the past.
Maybe we will see this kid in F1 someday
