I have just viewed the F500 race on SpeedTV and what caught my eye was the hard hit that Brian Golay put on Kenny Price knocking Kenny up in the air, off the course and unable to continue. When you compare that with the hit that McMahan had on the rear diffuser of the Novak car and McMahan's wild airborne ride to the right of the track in avoidance of the sideways Novak (which I suspect contributed to his suspension ills later in the race). Novak was even able to continue the race with very little damage to his diffuser which I saw afterwards sitting outside the tech bldg. (the rest of the damage was from Knuteson's hit). I am clearly mystified by the stewards' NOT punishing Golay for his hit when Price protested Golay, yet busted McMahan for a slightly lesser hit in comparison. I am also even more mystified by the fact that I was told by Clint that no one but the stewards were allowed to view the video replays which were critical evidence in their judicial proceedings. This prohibition against allowing all involved parties to view all critical evidence is a violation of judicial due process. I think that it is grounds for appeal and overturning on procedural error. Will it ever happen? I doubt it.
