Taken at Suzuka last weekend. Takuma Sato gets loose coming into the turn, loses it over the curbing, does a complete 360, pulls it off and keeps going. Two views of the spin in the video. Keep your eyes on the tires. It shows some skill being able to pull this move off.

Man, I can watch this one over and over...btw, Sato came in 5th last weekend, one of his best finishes all year, plus being in Japan was a very special thing for him. Plus, he uses Honda engines!

Anyone recognize these views!










Too bad I couldn't have seen an F1 race there.
Guess I'll be watching for Sato next year. I can't wait for Honda to make a stronger presence in F1...maybe make some of the italian and german manufactures sweat a little (ok maybe a little optomistic)
