This reminds me of that video of the dude in the Ferrari making espresso, knitting etc.... Thanks for the laughs.

I can confirm its hard getting under 2 at Sebring.

Same here Mark, for me its turns 1 through 17

Juan I think you have a few of the turns figured out based on watching you from behind when you have passed me, I know I have turn 18 totally figured out oh my mistake that is the bar at the Seven hotel 😀
