@@Darklor_WCFAnd German anthem before it. Nearly every championship since 2000 has been won by either a German driver or a German constructor. That's a lot of listening to the German anthem. A lot of people have developed a strong aversion to it from hearing it so much in the Schumacher and Vettel days.

A very interesting video, thanks for uploading it. I don't know anything about car racing, much less formula vee, but it seemed like whoever led into turn 9 on the last lap was precluded from winning. Is that why you were shaking your head? If that is the case, it's hard to understand how the racecraft works. Roebling road is a flowing, sweepy course, are other courses not taken in top gear the whole way around in a formula Vee? I enjoyed watching, great race, and video!

You nailed it, I look at that footage and see light poles and tree trunks whizzing by and that race is one accident away from being gone. I raced in a lot of Grand Prix style kart races in the Midwest and most of them don't exist anymore because insurance rates of skyrocketed... And our courses were lined and hay baled WAY better than what is shown here.
