Miami 08:00 Practice - Plowey

The gate weren't even open to the public, we had to use the PG pass to get in a team gate.
So it's little surprise there are only two fans in the stands - and they're Plowey fans too !!

Nice shots, especially like the last w/ the reflection of the wheel in the water puddle.

Tough job you have got there Paul, but I guess someone has to do it

PS did you take any shots of Scott Dixon ?

Is that really a puddle? It doesn't look like a puddle. Paul, were you shooting through glass or plexi in that one. Do you have a reflection in a filter or something? What is that?

That's sunlight reflecting off the polished wheel rim, and then off pit lane.
Not a drop of water in sight, it was already well over 80F heading to an evening temp of 98F on the way home. I imagine pit lane temperature was over 100 at peak.
No glass or plexi there (it's not F1!) just straight over the wall into pit lane.
