What happened at the start - what's the order? My live timing has died.

Bourdais
Doornbos Rahal Tagliani Power Jani Clarke Heylen Servia Gommendy Figge Wilson Dalziel Tracy Legge Junquiera Pagenaud Lap 10/ ~1h 16m remaining Tracy/Pagenaud/Dalziel tangled on lap 1 into Turn 4. Junquiera served a drive-through for jumping the start. Dan Clarke isn't driving with a brain, as usual. That new helmet he's testing may be a WEE BIT too tight. XD |

Cheers - sounds like nothing new then! Shame about Junqueira!
Bloody Champ car site doesn't work at all, let along live timing. Was looking forward to this race too! |

Clarke overtook Doornbos right now into Turn 4, cut him off short, Doornbos lost all the air on his front wing and couldn't brake into 4, made contact with Clarke's Left Rear tire and had to pit to replace his wing. |

Clarke looked to be infront of him by then anyway, so it wasn't really a case of cutting him off..

Clarke amazingly has no damage |

Don't know, looks like an electrical problem, so i'm guessing he's as good as out of it. Heard something about changing the ECU.
4 laps down now |

So - from what I can piece together on live timing and the (excellent) running commentary from you guys...
Pagenaud clips Tracy and Dalziel on L1 causing caution, prompting Clarke and Servia to pit - as well as SP, PT and RD. Junqueira jumps start from 5th to 1st. Clarke is motoring up the field and stays out slightly longer for his second stop putting him 2nd before dropping back to 4th. Doornbos and Clarke have their altercation and meanwhile Bourdais and Rahal are looking nice for NHLR 1-2 at the moment? Bourdais, Rahal, Clarke, Servia, Tagliani, Wilson, Jani??? |

Been out since lap 15 according to this - mechanical problem. Shame, but Figge is going well.

Hehe, live timing is great for seeing who is doing what at the back - not so much when you want to see the action! Ah well, its the best I can do.

Rick Benjamin just said that Forsythe has Mo Nunn as an engineering consultant for the team this weekend. Interesting.
