More Nutty NASCAR Madness

Only caught the last fifteen minutes of last night's NASCAR race from Talladega and it looks like I didn't miss much - NASCAR bosses are being (rightly) panned for pre-race announcement that they would launch punitive measures against overly aggressive drivers.  That said, the last few laps were more than dramatic.  In the space of five laps we were treated to these two 'minor incidents'.  Everybody walked away safely.

Firstly, take a look at Ryan Newman' flip:

And now here's footage of a multi-car crash that was headlined by Mark Martin's flip (that's him in the 5 car)

Le Mans, Ten Years Later

It's Le Mans weekend. I won't see too much this year because herself is about but it did remind me of the first time I watched a significant amount of the race, which was ten years ago. You'll be glad to know that Peter Dumbreck walked away from this one okay, but I wish I was a headline writer back then just so I could write about Mercedes' Dumb-wreck!

Another Scary GP2 Crash

Not so long ago I showed you a crash from one of the GP2 races at the round in Barcelona. Well here's another one from last weekend's race at Monte Carlo. I'm sure you'll agree that it's far more exciting than anything the Formula 1 race offered on Sunday. The 'pilot' in question is Roman Grosjean and the cameraman is probably still thanking his lucky stars.
