I have to agree. From his comments later he said he was just trying to give the fans a prayer to remember, but still. I thought it was not appropriate for a pre race prayer. It came across to me as mocking and not at all what you would expect a pastor to deliver. At no point did he ask for safety for the drivers, crews and fans. If he wanted to add "Boogity" at the end, then whatever, but I just thought he went too far. Other people have their opinion and that is fine, but I just think he concentrated too much on entertaining and not enough, if at all, at genuine prayer to God.
