A close fight for 2nd between Mav and ‘Geek.
Sebastian had a shocker after his NASCAR picks let him down.

Sean now has a tidy lead, although we’ve seen how quickly fortunes change in this game.
The race for 3rd is hotting up, I’ve caught Gavin slightly and Andy is now just 4 points behind me. A bit of a gap behind, Mav has closed the gap to Felipe.
Races This Week
F1 Spa-Francorchamps
Spa! Everyone loves Spa. This race is so unpredictable there’s little I can put here, surely the rain will feature at some point but perhaps it will buck the trend across Europe and stay dry and sunny?
NASCAR Cup Bristol
Another trip to the half-mile bullring where bodywork will no doubt go flying.
MotoGP Indianapolis
Whilst I like that MotoGP races at Indy, the infield road course remains awful and the races here haven’t been up to the usual standard of the series – and this year the series hasn’t been up to its usual standard anyway. It is a shame that it puts on a fairly poor show, and I remain hopeful that’ll change this week.
IndyCar Sears Point
Not the greatest course on the schedule by any stretch of the imagination but it isn’t always as bad as some make out. I would still call it the ‘Hungaroring of IndyCar’, mind you the Budapest track has proven even a bad circuit can generate a good race from time to time. Fingers crossed.
Good luck!
I Watch Too Much Racing 
Indy caar? Clearly it’s NASCAR that I ahte! 😛
Can I trouble you for next week’s races as well, please Pat? Shall be watching F1 from Italy (but not because I’m boycotting the BBC before you ask.)

I’m sure most know this by now but to post for the record, following the protest there was no change to the IndyCar Loudon result.

I’ve had good intuition lately for when to pick NASCAR guys (which a lot of people here tend not to do) and when not to. That good luck can’t continue.
