@jasonpohuski and I hustled to the finish line to make sure we captured the end of the FIA F1 USGP race. Red Bull Racing Honda’s Max Verstappen won the race with his rival (Lewis Hamilton who drives for Mercedes) right behind him in 2nd place. It was a fun event to cover and probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever photographed. It was a technical and logistical challenge from the beginning to the end.

About this photo, the winning pit crew always runs to the wall to cheer for their driver going passed the finish line. At this track, at this time of day, it was a tough shot to get because of the harsh sun, shadows from the grandstands, the speed of the car and several other factors. So it isn’t the best photo in the world, but it captures some of the emotion involved in the sport.

I’m very sorry I haven’t posted anything since October 17th. My job has been extremely busy with most days starting at 7am and going until late into the evening. On top of that, I caused some of my own stress by spending a long weekend in Austin Texas. While down there, I also has an extremely busy schedule because I was covering the FIA Formula 1 US Grand Prix, Formula 4 and W Series races at the Circuit Of The Americas race track. Big thanks to Golden Sky Media for allowing me to cover the event for them.

I covered the three days:

· Friday – practice sessions

· Saturday – practice and qualifying

· Sunday – races

Over those three days covering the track, pit lane and the paddock, I took over 27,000 photos. So, I’ve had two weeks of now stop action and a packed schedule. Again, I’m sorry for the absence.

Here is a photo of Lando Norris who drives the number 4 McLaren race car. Lando finished in 8th place.
