about mid race at Portland, Dario Franchitti's day ended early after a collision with Al Unser Jr. Until that point in the race, Dario had been in contention for one of the top spots, but once again it wasn't supposed to happen. I saw him walking past me towards the pits, and this backside view is about as representative of his mood as a frontal portrait could have been. I like to contrast this photo with Andre Ribeiro's thumbs up return to the pits at Elkhart Lake.
 
Dario returns to the pits after contact with Unser Jr. Frustration shows - he was running up front again
