This won;t be a spoiler - I've been watching the Brit GP - a fully wet race with all cars on intermediate or full rain tires.

It's a true lesson in seeing who are the true masters of car control without the electronic assistance of Traction Control. I'll bet there are a LOT of drivers praying they'll be allowed TC in the future! TC really made them look like rainmeisters!

Think now about the TRUE Rainmeisters - Senna, Lauda, Schooey, Ickx, and others who not only controlled their cars in terrible conditions, but they were shifting with one hand at the same time! All without electronic assistance.

Man!  WHen those cars lose it, they snap *very* quickly!

Great race BTW  -  Glad I taped it -
