I spent most of the race in Toronto outside of Turn 8, because only "prestige" press people got access in pit lane or between turn 1 and 3. At first I was upset, but after two practice days I knew where to go for good shots. Turn 8 had everything: a good view at cars at pretty low speed, passing action into it, and good light. This image of Michael is one of the 'standard' shots I got that day, but it's perfect: sharp from front to back, tires show a slight motion blur, and his hand is up on top of the steering wheel. What else is there?
