Great photos JP. Michelle says hi.
The race was great to watch and added unexpected elements to the race.
Great to see Leclerc take 2nd place and Max did not run away with the lead.

I'm amazed that lid came up for a couple of reasons. They're heavy cast iron and if you've ever removed one you know the tolerance between the sleeve and lid is quite tight. You need to work thin screwdrivers on each side of the lid a mm at a time until you can grasp the top of the lid. Vacuum? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Yes. Every city race ends up having this problem.
Same thing happened in Baltimore when they were running the ALMS and Indy races there, before the dark times came.

All the downforce these cars generate sucking them to the ground equates to lifting force on the ground. In Baltimore the ALMS and Indy cars were lifting full size manhole covers out of the ground - those things are HEAVY cast iron and in some cases were rusted in place for decades. Popped 'em out all over the course. 10 years later you can still see the tack welds placed on those covers to keep them in the road.
