From what the TV announcers said, he asked to drive and was hot dogging it along the back straight. The crowd was loving it. I’m sure someone got a great pic of him drifting that Cobra.
Hey now, I used to own a muscle car – ’66 Mustang – 289 w/ 3/4 race cam – 4 spd. – fat Goodyears and US Indy mags. Granted, the Cobra has even more power, but I’m game. Even the Mini’s would be fun though. I would be happy to drive a beater pickup truck around that track. :)
The best thing about this race wasn’t Grosjean/Webber or Alonso/Hulkenberg, it was the Grid Girls/Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. My oh my, the race was pretty average Keith, can we just have an album of Grid Girls and Cheerleaders?
What happened to the Texan hats we saw on the podium last year? :( They were so cool, and gave the race a unique feature. Now we just have the regular Pirelli caps :( :(

Did anyone else notice that Vettel took over driving in the drivers’ parade?
