The award has been given out for some really awful shots lately... it's nice to see something like this win.

I think it captures it. It has movement and electricity without being overblown. Your eye travels in a circular motion.

I like the background...

I like that there are crowds and there is movement within the crowds but the focus is on Zenyatta and Blame.

In a perfect world we wouldn't have a light pole sticking out of Mikies back but what can you do. It's not horrible...

It's the moment of the year - a moment that defines racing - which doesn't have to make it the winner of course but Jesus looking back on some of the God awful stuff that's won? A nice change.

He sounds shocked and touched and that's always a nice read.

Good for him.

I'd love to see that one.
