The visor cam is something F1 should really do https://www.nascar.com/video/franchise/ ... visor-cam/

I never understood why Cell-phone cameras werent integrated right below the closed visor. Especially with the 3D dual cameras being all the rage now.

Super minimal weight penalty, incredible viewpoint to watch from. Although VR goggles might make u sick.... :-P

Getting ready for the green, Its amazing how young this field is. I havent followed that closely for a while but there are lots of names I don't recognize. I with they would drop the Waltrip bros and get some new announcers. Gordon is great though.

I was close on my pic
2nd place for Wallace jr. and the #43 car is a great way to start off the season.

Totally missed this thread. I watched live yesterday, #11 fan here. Had the best car in my opinion, even after a stupid penalty and going a lap down he was in no danger of missing out on a shot at winning.
Rode his luck in the wreck that took out Danica, He was 1 of a few that got through unmarked. Probably ahould have won but didnt have the best restart at the green white chequer.
Well done the 3 car. Good to see that number in that font on top at Daytona!
