Yes it is. And every other gauge is normally turned so that normal reading
is striaght up at 12 o'clock as well.
The driver during a race dosn't need to know, or care about specific
numbers. All he wants to do is make a quick glance and that everything is
ok. Rotating the gauges allows this to be done in a fraction of a second.
This is the reason it has taken digital readouts to become popular, they
have been less amenable to this.
