Best Feel Good Moments
Re: Best Feel Good Moments
Kobayashi and his 3rd place drive in Japan.
The podium and subsequent interviews are some of the best footage on the F1 DVD. I just love all the jubilation and noise. Imagine if he had won!

I'm not surprised about anything.

Yes. Although when I went to see the road cycling, I saw him 'only' win a silver in the team relay. Still a marvelous day.

Re: Best Feel Good Moments
Reject feel good moment: Seeing the Trojan, Token and Amon battle on track on a rainy Francorchamps for position for quite a few laps. Historics that was. These cars have been racing around in 1974, but will have rarely battled that much.
Obvious feel good moment: the first car race i ever attended, being the 24 hours of Zolder in 1994. Plenty of cars, a few impressive GT's and Touring cars, but also lot of small amateur cars. Lovely. I had no idea what cars were good and which were not, also used to be unable to understand lapped cars and why starting number one wasn't winning Shame that it will never be as good again as it was in the nineties.

Stefano Modena starting P2 in his Tyrrell-Honda in Monaco and then getting his reward with a 2nd in Canada in 1991. In my opinion he was good enough be a World Champion given how the Tyrrell was a strong but not excellent or consistent car.
