That's the understatement of the week!

I really don't think he necessarily was good at the recovery, he was just damn lucky! The moron didn't seem to lift off the gas until half track.

which moron, specifically, are you referring too? The white car looked like he got back on it after saving his own ass off the line. Didn't he see the black one digging a ditch and heading his way? I'm guessing slicks and skinnies degrade braking performance severly, but I'd have tried to wait until the pieces stopped flying from the black one before passing, personally.

Yeah, I'm not sure why the near lane kept on the gas the whole time. Who cares if you lose the drag? The other guy would lose the race.
