105th Indianapolis 500 Race Thread

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Go Penske, Montoya and Helio !!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Just get through the first turn. That's all I ask every year.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Green!

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Herta leads lap one!

 

[Blaze]

Thought they was going to wreck on that start.

 

[Kiante]

Me seeing Colton take the lead already.

 

[Reck]

Dixon really smart. Says go wreck yourselves youngins.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Yeah, I'm pulling for Team Brazil. TK would be nice but I wanna see Spiderman one more time.

 

[donthaveanickname]

That start was pretty wild.

 

[Kiante]

Yeah, I'm pulling for Team Brazil.

Helio is looking comfortable in 6th.

When they broadcast these BIG auto races (Daytona 500, Indy 500, Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix) I always like to see the very beginning of the race when those cars open up and be FLYING around the track

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Man it’s nice to see a big crowd again

 

[Nitro Dude]

Even though I'm rooting for Graham and Colton I could also handle a TK win.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Man it’s nice to see a big crowd again

Also nice to have 21 laps before the first commercial, and it’s side by side.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Five-lap difference in fuel mileage between running out front and running in traffic is huge.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Also nice to have 21 laps before the first commercial, and it’s side by side.

This is the second set, not the first.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Also nice to have 21 laps before the first commercial, and it’s side by side.

Sky UK have their own commentary team for NBC's commercial breaks, Lando Norris is one of their analysts.

 

[Reck]

Very nice and clean racing thus far.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Whos bright idea was it to bring Steve Letarte over to the Indy broadcast.

“This is different than our NASCAR vehicle”

 

[Hotrod]

Very impressed these drivers, young and old, are behaving in a serpentine single file.
My league picks are : Dixon , Newgarden , Pagenaud.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

When is the first stage over?

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

It’s still early but man big mistake from Ed

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Wilson crashes on pit road. This will help the drivers that are still on track.

 

[Kiante]

Oh no Stef.

 

[antman12]

When is the first stage over?

I was wondering when the competition caution was coming. Lol.

 

[FLRacingFan]

That’s such a tough pit entry. 220 MPH down to 60.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Good jobs avoiding Wilson.

 

[Reck]

That dude just never let off the gas coming off the track and into pit road.

 

[2 Sweet]

Wow, HUGE mistake by Wilson

 

[donthaveanickname]

Damn, was hoping for a good run by Stefan

 

[Mispeedway15]

What in tarnation was he doing

 

[gnomesayin]

Was about to say how thankful I was for a good clean first stint.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Golden Horseshoe dislodged?

 

[Kiante]

Heh, heh, heh, heh...

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Golden Horseshoe dislodged?

Eeyup.

 

[2 Sweet]

Uh oh Dixon!!! That Honda is quitting on you

 

[donthaveanickname]

Desaster for Dixie

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Golden Horseshoe dislodged?

Lap down.

 

[Blaze]

Sucks for Dixon wow

 

[Kiante]

Rossi's got some terrible luck man.
