10. We're pretty sure racing is not on the list of top five things Tom Coronel is thinking in this picture. We love the WTCC for the action, on and off the race track.

9. A second victory for Dale Jr. This is always breaking news because of how incredibly popular he is, winning or not. Plus Pocono has a unique set up for their Victory Lane. It always makes a nice picture.

7. Great rally atmosphere in this image. Jumping car, TV helicopter, makeshift viewing stand for fans. It's all there. Bonus points for the guy with an iPad.

6. Any victory celebration that involves firing two guns in the air like Saddam Hussein is either ridiculous or awesome depending on how you look at it.
