Very nice to see Seb back in action so quickly after that hellacious hit he took at Indy. Very nice guy, met him originally at a media function at St. Petersburg when he joined Newman Haas as a rookie in Champ Cars. Then, was able to work with him again at Sebring where he drove a Ferrari 575 GT for Labre Competition. He settled in Tampa for a time as his then fiancé was finishing at USF where she was a stand out track and field athlete. I understand now they're living on the St. Petersburg side of the bay now. The Indy shunt was such a pity as, if I remember correctly, he was leading driver points (or very close to the top) at the time and was having a remarkable season winning at St. Petersburg. BHW
