U.S. Grand Prix Fiasco

What can I say about the fiasco that was the United States Grand Prix?

I've never seen anything like it in my whole life.  After much thought and reading many FIA press releases I blame Michelin, and less so, the 6 Michelin teams, for the debacle.

The FIA and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway are blameless. I have to agree with the FIA's position that the teams are responsible for bringing the right gear to the race.  If you want to compete, you need to bring the right tires.

I hope this doesn't damage F1 in American too bad.  I'll say, I'm thinking twice about booking a trip to Montreal for next year's Canadian Grand Prix.
