It was quite a race at Laguna Seca this weekend, and the last lap pretty much sums up the whole deal. I'm not in a position to really pass judgment or call out either the Corvette or the 911 as being more at fault, but it was pretty clear that Jan Magnussen was the one to lose out the most, but perhaps could have avoided the whole thing by not running directly into Jörg Bergmeister on the last corner. Take a look at what I'm talking about:
Exciting stuff to be sure, but I'd rather see the close racing without people writing off race cars. That sort of thing would easily put one of the less well-heeled teams out for a good while, if not permanently. Quite a few people at the pub, where I had persuaded the owner to switch over to the race after one of the football games was over, were beyond excited with the intense battle going between the front runners, and these are not motorsport heads in the slightest. At any rate, it would appear that 2010 is going to be a season worth watching. Sebring here I come!
