Da Matta outran Christian all day. Our thoughts are with you. Everybody blasted the silly, unrealistic aspects of this movie. Then, the first weekend it comes out, there is a fiery, airborne, pieces scattering, multi-car pileup in an IRL race that seemed to come right out of Hollywood. One week later, a young good looking talented driver wearing Nextel colors comes out of nowhere to burst on the scene with his first win.
Fact truly is stranger than fiction.
Let's top that. Let's top that some more. We haven't even mentioned the stat that this was the second furthest starting position a winner ever came from. Any one of these feats is amazing enough. All at the same time is just mind blowing.
