Las Vegas Race 1:
Herberts has no Pocket Aces
   After a promising pre-season, and encouraging practice and qualifying rounds, the Las Vegas Race proved to Adrien: you don't always get lucky in Vegas.  The race turned out to be a demolition derby, with 16 out of the 27 cars crashing into each other at some point in the race.  "It was crazy.  It seemed like every other lap a yellow came out, or I was hit by someone" Adrien exclaimed.  Considering that Paladin Motorsports, and Adrien were both rookie's they put in a strong performance in practice and qualifying, until Adrien's fast lap was taken away dropping him from 13th to 16th on the grid.  "The series is so competitive, that really, we feel extremley positive moving forward.  It sucks that we were caught up in that nasty wreck, but, it was a blind corner and no-one had time to react." 

Going into Long Beach this weekend, Herberts feels very strongly that a good finish will be delivered. "I just feel confident, and have faith in the team" He says with a smile.  No matter what, Adrien will move forward from the crash and hopes that one saying about Vegas turns out to be true: What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
