Green Flag!

Boy, it seems like it has been months since I opened up Race Director on a Friday for practice.

Red flags for both CDM and PT crashing. Add in Del Monte and it's going to be an expensive weekend for a few teams. PT had just set fast lap.

AJ in P2 :thumbup:

I sure hope that was an example of CdM getting his crashes out of the way early (rather than during the race). He really needs to stop running into things and finish the race for a change! :(

'It's deja vu all over again as Paul Tracy posts quickest lap but crashes near the end of the session, a repeat of this morning's first practice session. The first round of Qualifying is about to get underway!'

'RED FLAG 27 min : RED FLAG We have lost all power at the race track'

:confused: Wonder what is up this year. Isn't this like the third time this has happened?

Bourdais at the top of the chart.

'56 min Timo Glock has been parked by Race Control for unspecified Unsportsmanlike Conduct. '

Wonder what that is all about?

Maybe he didn't tip one of Gentilozzi's dancers the other day. :saywhat:

AND, da Matta just finished warm-up/practice 5 in the top spot, too. Is he driving like a guy looking for a ride next season!? ;) I hear RHR was seen having a sit down with Forsythe yesterday. 3rd car for '06?
