That pic deserves some quotes:

"What did I come here for?"

"This candy bar tastes a little funny...or is it the Dew?"

"What language is that on the loud speaker?"

The number of guys pulling 41 laps after round 4 is up to 15 now. Still Bertin holds onto the number 1 spot. Held in controlled practise. Holding in the quals. I'd say it'd be a real upset if he were to lose.

Default Race Procedures

Basically it appears that the top 4 go to the finals and the next six are picked based upon laps and times from the Semi-Mains no matter which one of the semi's produces the most.

Here is a link to the Ifmar site that shows the whole procedure.

Yes, so in theory it is possible, that the driver which is qualified last, can still win the race.......
Only he needs to drive really a lot......
(but if he does, he has a real good engine..... )

They are telecasting the race at: http://www.radiophenomena.it/. Hit "Live streaming" and there is a guy talking in Italian about the race. You could hear the cars buzz by in the background. Man, I wish I understood Italian.

5 out of 10 cars is Mugen.....
47%....
