Crash Test should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridCrash Test should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
From espn.com

"But everything wasn't rosy in Vegas over the weekend. The comments made by Eliseo Salazar following his crash with Sarah Fisher on lap 126 were most disturbing. With all due respect to Salazar and recognizing that passion and adrenaline can sometimes cloud your observations, his comments concerning the performance of Ms. Fisher and the reference that she should consider "Powder Puff Derby" were uncalled for and unjustified.

Eliseo needs only to look back in his career to some of the problems he created when he raced at the Indianapolis 500 against Davy Jones a few years back. In the late stages of that race, Salazar fought to keep Jones from passing him. He rocked back and forth much to the chagrin of many of his critics, who felt that his defensive tactics were not only uncalled for, but also hazardous. For Salazar to now make such comments about Fisher are just plain wrong.

Fisher showed that she has what it takes to compete with the guys. On my flight home from Vegas, I had the opportunity to chat at length with Sarah's car owner, Derrick Walker. Their interpretation of the on-board telemetry showed that Sarah's accident was caused when she turned too hard in the middle of the corner (something that a lot of guys have done, as well)."

What do we think, let the chick run, or ban Chileans??
