All is not lost. May I suggest hopping on a plane and flying to France for the 24 Hours of Le Mans? It's this weekend. Bon voyage.

Don't have a Mercedes right now...
Tha would be a fantastic vacation to watch those two races back to back, I wish I can do that some day. They are saying that they are negotiating for Indi to come back next year.
