Fail because it's out of focus, so we can't see why it's a fail??

Because you actually took a picture of it and thought we'd care.

Fail not driving cautiously in view of the waiving yellow flag. Excitement happens at time 0:35 seconds.

Yeah saw that one on RL. Pretty bad hit. Not one car in that pack slowed down and it almost seemed like the one SM that moved off line did so due to the flag and hit the lotus.

On another note... Is it me or is RL in general a great big Fail lately?

It's still the biggest base of owners for technical questions. But the race forum is basically two unknown racers pissing on each other about who is less unknown, and a handful of sidekicks doing the proverbial, "Yeah, boss. You're the greatest."
