.......I suspect when the race is over, Vitor Meira will likely get the "I got screwed" award tonight..........his team gambles on fuel and they just got burned bad..........had the caution not come out just now AND had the leaders had to make a splash-'n'-dash for fuel, he might've won.......... :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :(
