...you pull out of a car's slipstream just before braking for a corner
and you're not entirely sure if you can make the turn. It's a slightly
uncomfortable feeling, but very satisfying when you realise you can just
hold onto the circuit.

This happend lots at Silverstone and Monza but is MOST satisfying when
you manage it going into the first turn at Mexico, or turn seven at
Mosport (is it turn seven? the corner at the end of the backstraight,
anyway).

Something I really, really hate is when the car in front slows rapidly
in the middle of a very fast corner... like the first turn at Monza, or
the second turn at Silverstone. It's difficult to avoid an accident in
this situation because you know that hitting the brakes will upset your
car so you try to risk a near miss...

Just wasting bandwidth, but I figured today's the day for wasting
bandwidth, hey Mr. Walsh?
