Cant wait to hear your thoughts on this circuit and how it compares to some of the F1 circuits you've raced on. This is one of my favorite places to flag when I'm able to travel. This and last year have been a washout for obvious reasons. The 3 years previous have been to tight funds. Many of the marshals you see at the road courses volunteer their time and pay their own way on this side of the ocean. As many likely do in Europe and elsewhere. I'd most likely be there cheering you on from one of the many flag holes if times were different. Good luck this weekend. Keep that pointy end forward and the shiny side up Romain! Best wishes from Amherstburg Ontario.

Couple that with the karting I've done in the past and I can just start to imagine the physicality. The car control is really just so impressive from all you guys. There is a reason why you're a pro's pro! I still find the structural support for the Aeroscreen/Halo distracting but that probably shows I'm just not looking where i should be. :-)
