So we're not going to red-flag the race.

Karam is down for the count. Good to see him climb out though.

Have they red flagged it or still running laps down behind the pace car.

Well done to Sato. Between all the wrecks that was a pretty good race, plenty of dicing through the field.

Sato is so damn good here. 1 lap from being a 3 time winner. So glad for him.
