MODERATORS
I don’t understand why everyone is saying the racing was great here. All overtakes were either slipstreaming behind another car or under breaking at the end of a straight. Sure it makes for a lot of overtakes, but not really that exciting after having seen the same move done a couple of times.
Also, why was the cool-down room a Rolls Royce and not an American car like a Cadillac? Seems like a missed opportunity to promote more Americana.
The race was exciting because of passes and re passes. Otherwise most of the overtakes were slipstreaming/drs overtakes.
Fingers crossed there is no sprint next season for this one. Sprint will just spoil the results like everywhere else.
