Went to Malone's after my Thursday night driving session. Got to watch Grubby in the final heat and he was crashed out by the South African racer. I drove home with my eyes brimming....
Even writing this right now, my eyes water. He has been so close to world championships and Olympic gold but has yet been able to make it through the final stretch. His misses have been mechanical or being crashed out, he has not had the opportunity to race it all the way to the tape.
And as he has said, "That's racing."
On another note, Jill did pull off a medal run in her final heat and took home the Bronze!
