Montoya Gets No Respect

Ok, I am coming out with it - I am a closet Formula 1 racing fan. I have no time for Nascar or Cart or any of that crap. But there is just something about F1. Particularly a fan of Juan Pablo Montoya and the Maclaren Mercedes team. Even if Kimi's voice does sound like a little boy.

Let's face it these guys have cojones of steel.

So my driver, JPM. Yeah, I love him. Yeah, it might have something to do with the fact that he's columbian and foxy. So what he's 5.6 or something! He's dark and handsome and is that type of gutsy that borders directly on insane. I love that he's firey and has been known to punch a camera guy. Anyway, I digress.

He's arguably one of the best drivers in the world. Everyone knows that F1 drivers are the cream of the proverbial crop. But my man either is on the podium or he's out of the race. Random stuff, unlikely, unlucky stuff never ceases to happen to him.

Sato (arguably the worst F1 driver - ok, maybe just I think so) takes him out when he is BEING LAPPED!

Last race, Montoya comes into the pit to see what ... Kimi his teammate sitting in the pit. Now I am not sure if the Kimi pit took longer than they thought or if they miscommunicated to Montoya when they told him to pit. But who else have you ever seen pit to find their teammate in the way. With a pit stop averaging about 6-8 seconds its not like he's gonna sit there and apply some lip gloss while he waits!

AHHHHHHH!
