could it be?

michael stalls at start of race.  he can restart, but if he does, the
race stays green flag and he is way last.  so he waits for the yellow
flag and catches up with the field under yellow before losing a lap.

as things turned out, there was so many yellows that he probably would
have been able to get back to the last guy anyway, but i was just
wondering about that incident.

also Tracy and Takagi were really making silly mistakes, it would
appear.  I don't know if they had car problems, but it certainly made
things harder for anyone racing near them.  The espn commentator was
quite pissed off at Takagi, and I don't blame him.

nice race though.  Funny how fast Zanardi was near the end.  Adrian
Fernandez was awesome the last 20 laps or so.

Regards all,

He has a way of using the rules to his advantage, or his teams. In cleveland
he cost Memo Gidley the race by blocking him for a couple of laps with his
teammate, francitti was leading.

Pretty good race, from what I saw. Problem was, I only saw half of it,
video tape ran out of steam. Dammit, sounded like an awesome finish.
