2011 Indy 500 -- 100 Years
 
Probably my least favorite race of this 2011 "Three Race Day", but still significant that they've been holding this event for 100 years!

Restarts promise to be interesting today -- drivers not fans of the double wide start -- fans are -- looks like IRL listened to the fans....

Cool opening by ABC! Well done....

SPOHN 05-29-2011 10:47 AM

The opening was great. I always love how they go threw the history of the track.

Fuel Mileage Race.....?
 
.....I'm getting the impression that his is going to come down to a fuel mileage race -- oooops, yellow flag...........nevermind........

Would be cool to see Servia win it but we will see. Still a bit of racing left to go and Dario looks strong.

m4a1mustang 05-29-2011 02:14 PM

Red__Zed 05-29-2011 02:15 PM

MC 05-29-2011 02:16 PM

i cant even imagine how that would feel.... i just cringed so hard sitting here on the couch.... god ...poor kid

m4a1mustang 05-29-2011 02:17 PM

Yeah. Damn. He had plenty of lead to just back off and ease through there... Last corner... :facepalm:

Red__Zed 05-29-2011 02:17 PM

word. No need to even get close to your limits...

Sscottfitz 05-29-2011 02:18 PM

What a heartbreaker -- must of lost either air on the nose as he passed the lapper or simply lost concentration.........interesting finish......

SPOHN 05-29-2011 02:24 PM

He had no business trying to pass with that lead

omfg what a heartbreak for hildebrand! was a very daring move to try passing on the outside with that lead, didn't pay off.

did dario go into like...super duper fuel economy mode or something?
