Big ratings for the 500

Sorry , I didn't know when he started as a brash little kid who was all hype and media that he was going to win some races . He also brought millions of fans into the sport that didn't give a crap about Nascar or stock car racing , they just wanted Jeff's hat and autograph.I honestly didn't believe one of those fans would be here today.

It's different with Danica. Her fans didn't stay in IndyCar very long. Hell, by the time 2009 rolled around, IndyCar couldn't even get a television package on a basic cable network. SPEED passed on it, ESPN took the bare minimum and it ended up on a network nobody had.
