It was a great race. I was in Grandstand 1 and saw Lewis crash into Kimi. We were in shock. It was a loud collision.
I posted some pictures from the race here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nikonjim/sets...57605586105673/

Thanks. They were good for seeing some of the pit lane action, but the fences prevented me from getting good shots of the racing. I think next year I am going to try for the hair pin. Montreal is a lot of fun.

Here is one of my best pics from turn 2 (section 11).
There was good action but not as much as I hoped. This was from a Formula BMW race held just before the F1.
I am still sorting thru the 1700 pics I took before posting more.

I also went to the F1 race. A great day for BMW Motorsports. I wonder if Mario Thiessen will be sending a thank you note to Lewis Hamilton?
Robert was ahead of Lewis and tied with Kimi, when Lewis had his brain fart.

Why would he do that?

Kubica was along side of Kimi when he was hit. It could have easily been Kubica that was taken out of the race.
