RIP McQueen. IMHO that TAG Heuer race was retarded, there's no way McQueen lost it!

If anyone is interested in this shirt, i found them on ebay. They are exactly the same as the one he wore when he did his vicotry lap after the win. Except these dont have the egg with the #9 on the sleeves, this T-shirt just has the same front and back.

While you're waiting for the race to begin, why not play poker online. The competition can get really heated, much like a great race, and you could walk away a winner. And if you can't get out to the track, this will give you the adrenaline rush you're looking for.

Haga didn't get behind Fabrizio until the last lap. Fabrizio had to keep in front of Rea et al lest they rob valuable points from Haga. He had no idea that Haga was in 2nd in time to have done anything about it. Wouldn't have mattered anyways. Spies needed to finish 2 positions further back for Haga to take the title.
