Suffering Racing Withdrawals?
You say your Sunday just isn’t the same as the previous 38. You feel down right cadaverous as the Sunday sun sets in the west and, well… your world was devoid of the roar of 800 horsepower engines and the sickening sound of metal to retaining wall contact.
That sinking feeling is the result of one thing and one thing only, having a “NASCAR-centric attitude. There’s more to life than the rolling sandwich boards of NASCAR.
While you were moping your brow of cold sweats and gripping the Lazy-Boy’s arm trying to steady the shakes there was some outstanding racing to be had this holiday weekend.
The fourth round of the A1 Grand Prix of Nations was held at the Sepang International Circuit Sunday. The short Sprint race (Full Race Report) was won by A1 Team Switzerland’s Neel Jani in a flag-to-flag effort. The win avenged his final lap defeat in last year
I’m always melancholy this time of year because of racing withdrawl. Aren’t there pharmaceuticals for that?
A1 isn’t covered by my Cox cable provider in Southern California, unfortunately. SpeedTV doesn’t have it this year.
That’s been one of the major screw-ups by A1GP. The lack of consistent TV coverage in the States has hurt them and so has the dearth of media coverage in general.
