Bourdais Makes Progress: From 17th to 19th

Bourdais Makes Progress: From 17th to 19th

After more than 158 laps, the Chump Car "standout"
"improves" from his DEAD LAST 17th place finish
to the DEAD LAST timed position of 19th place, and
worsens his time with respect to leader de la Rosa.

No doubt the Chumps (like roaches) will come out
of the woodwork to trumpet (read: offer even more
excuses for) this incredible "achievement" as well.

His time relative to the fastest time improved from +3.054 to +2.430, and he
was only .025 secs slower than the other Toro Rosso. Not great, but not bad
either considering that he's driving for the slowest team in the group.

And by the way, when Marco gets his Honda test, will it be by himself, or
will the other Honda drivers be present?

I expect it will be about 15 laps and lots of photos and that's it.

Gee, new track, new car, new procedures........

You mean he already is running the same as speed????

Actually, this speaks incredible of Borudais...and kind of hurts speed who
been in that car all year....

This shows that Bourdais is the real deal.....

Not a bad showing at all. To walk into a car, track and system of
testing..and to run the same as a person who has been in that car all
year......

yes..that is fact, quite impressive.

Golly, anther day...and he would likely be beating speed (I not sure how
great of a feat that is..but, it shows Sebass can drive...).

Albert, I see you aren't familiar with the dot yet. Logic and reason are
alien concepts to this creature. Any attempts to carry on a discussion
with it will accomplish nothing. It can be fun to fuck with its head a
little, as it is rather easily figured out and manipulated, but that can
get tiring after a while.

Don't imagine that you can carry on a meaningful discussion with it -
that, sir, is impossible.
