2018 Indy Car

Graham Rahal's shunt during the race was the equivalent to Max Verstapen's Monaco qualy incident. He got to high up while apexing on the inside and it sent him hard to the outside barrier.

 

True. It was fun watching Rossi easily zip past him.

 

Okay. I'll bite. I'm not a Marco fan ('don't eeven care for him), but, what's yer pernt?

If it's just because he didn't win from pole, please do, tell us how many have won from pole at Belle isle.....

Pulling sheet outa the air 'cause you have an agenda don't work.

 

Because the old boys club brings down the overall competition in the series. Too much dead wood

 

Rossi is aggressive on overtaking, he passes decisively w/o hesitation. The best pass I've seen this season was Bordais at Long Beach, a move for which he was penalized. It was brilliant.

 

His passes in the Indy 500 were pretty breathtaking as well!

 

Exactly, if it wasn't for his Father running him, he wouldn't have a job! The same goes for Graham as he took 5-6 years off before turning it on again a few years ago. Too many young drivers waiting on the sidelines for these never will be's to retire or move to sports cars etc....

 

still here in Detroit today.

Yeah, but then they'll have their own kids once they retire and that generation gets a free ride in IndyCar pushing another group of qualified drivers off to the side. Rinse and repeat every generation...

 

Safety car crashes nose-first into the wall on the first pace lap in Detroit. Clown car.

D'OH!

 

Unbelievable, the gang that couldn't shoot straight. And people wonder why the racing world doesn't accept Indycar as a world class series? Mark Reuss with some major egg on his face.

 

That was awesome!

 

Should make for an interesting CarFax.....

 

GN exec was driving. Well, looks like he got his memorable moment.

 

Yikes!!

 

Backup pace car not ready for prime time. What a cock-up.

 

Lol this is great. Reminds me of F1 crashing that C43 wagon AMG medical car a while back. Monaco 2000...

 

run flats with 100lbs in the rear. Turn the nannies off and let's go racing!!!!!

Does anybody know if Mark Reuss has track experience? Well, other than this track experience.

 

Lol his wikipedia page only mentions the crash. No other racing.

Twitter is already having fun with his Bio.

I suspect he's going to get some ribbing at work tomorrow. If he has a sense of humor,... he'll show up to work dressed as a crash test dummy.

 

That was pretty funny.

I saw it and thought that this guy would never show his face tomorrow at work. I like the idea of a test crash dummy suit.

 

Zak Brown needs to cut down on the Cheeseburgers. He doesn't fit the "McLaren" image.

 

Stupid! Why put a VP in the driver seat instead of a pro driver? Because GM wanted it that way.

GM quickly tells ABC "Tell them its a "celebrity driver" and not our VP! LOL!! Then Roger Penske covers for Chevy "come to the races and you'll see anything!" (aka: Making lemonade from a GM lemon).

 

Is that the first of the ZR1 crashes?
