2022 Indianapolis 500 Mile Race thread. Practice, qualy and race

Man I'll tell ya- these response teams are just plain sick- that car had not even come to a rest and the AMR boys were almost there- Commendable!!

 

Ah okay thanks, sad to see him out of contention but it was his mistake Friday...

 

That Purdue ad was excellent

 

Anyone else feel that NBC is just driving everyone to peacock by annoying the crap out of them with all the commercials?

Commercials every couple minutes, in-race "spots"...jeeez...

F1 spoiled me...

sjd

 

I liked Willie and the Sketchers one...LOL

"Sketchers are legal" LOLOL

 

Mullet looking racy

 

Grosjean bins it

 

same crash each time, middle of 2 the car steps out

 

almost a repeat of last year

 

can we all chip in and buy Rutledge out of his contract?

 

Halfway, my pics:

Dixon P1
Sato P9
Karam P12

 

All these restarts have been super aggressive and will get increasingly so

 

Indeed- Veejay and Grosjean almost identical- Feel bad for Romain but I'm sure that was a sip of espresso compared to Bahrain-

 

He did really well in practice and qualifying kept his nose clean for the first half, learned a lot...then learned a bit more the hard way. It's all good knowledge for him for next year.
Meanwhile Juan Pablo, Sato, Helio, Simon inching forward...

 

Herta out

 

Yep- I remember Sato wadding it a few times coming from F1 to Indy- Romain is smart and a true racer- He will figure it out and I think will be a strong contender-

 

If O'Ward wins I'm grabbing my SO and jumping on an evening flight to Puerto Vallarta!!
