HAHAHA, I can criticize others' pics but still accept comments on mines, and agree most of the time 
I know the back is blurry in this one. Actually only the Opel logo is sharp LOL, but sometimes you just have to accept you got no better shot and since the angle was cool, I decided to keep it

Here's a shot I took at F1 GP @ Indy in 2003. I barely knew how to operate a camera then (some cynics might say that not much has changed since  ) and these were some of the better shots.
But anyway, the pics remind me of the greatest race that I attended in my life - it had everything - rain, dry conditions, going into this race there were 3 drivers closely fighting for the championship. Schumi slipping back in slicks in damp conditions and then charging coming back to the front in the wet!
F1 2004
Much sunnier conditions with an amazing pass by Schumi on Rubens on the main straight after a safety car incident. I was lucky to have have witnessed good races throughout - glad I missed the 2005 race.

MS Paint? Way to go for a pro-workflow.

Ok ok, I shot it car-to-car, not panning, but I still wanted to share it.

Traveling shots are indeed another nice thing to master, but impressive how roads are suddently not smooth anymore when you are using your camera

Haha, yes indeed. Also hanging out of the booth in the pouring rain is no fun, but well, the things yo do to try and make a nice picture. This was my first try btw.

You might have a little flare-problem on the 2nd one.
I noticed that for the best effect the other car has to get really close while using a wide-angle.

Comon of course the lense flare was what I wanted actually we did several tries on that road, up and down and well, in the end I loved the shots with the sun behind the cars
And sure, wide angle is good but I don't like the deformation you obtain in a close 3/4 shot, so I prefer to shoot with the tele if the road is wide enough
