Go Montoya!

Maybe Power can finally win a championship with Franchitti out now.

If Montoya or Hunter Reay can't win I hope so

 

[Kiante]

If Sato keeps out of the wall. He can win a championship.

Also, I'm looking at Power, Andretti is getting better and better every season, Kanaan, Dixon, and I do not know about Montoya.

My wildcard is Bourdais. He has been on a role since that win at 24 Hr of Daytona.

 

[KevinWI]

Why can't I find the starting lineup on IndyCar's website?!?!

 

[Kiante]

Here you go Kevin.

Indycar even have it in PDF files to save, if you want to.

Gosh darn do I love open-wheel racing. Giving me chills. Here's to another exciting season of IndyCar racing, boys!

Where would you find track layouts, track distances, and length of each race?

ABC's coverage is so much better with Marty Reid out.

 

[KevinWI]

Good side by side there

 

[KevinWI]

Power is checking out here.

 

[KevinWI]

Conway can road race, let me tell you.

This.

Sato has shown speed on road courses and ovals. He just needs to keep it together and finish races. AJ obviously sees something in him.

 

[KevinWI]

What the hell was that?

 

[KevinWI]

Marco is hurt!

 

[KevinWI]

"Bloody hell"

Jack Hawksworth is one of my new favorites.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Montoya must still think he's in nascar

 

[blue92]

Did they do away with the double file restarts?

 

[KevinWI]

Did they do away with the double file restarts?

At road courses, yes, after Detroit last year.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Saw the end of the IndyCar race. ABC couldn't be bothered to talk about the rest of the series, could they? All they talked about was baseball and the IndyCar races on ABC.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

I didn't even know there was a race on today. Guess that shows how well the series is promoted.

Racing-reference.info
You can almost everything there.

As a NASCAR fan primarily... I miss Alan Bestwick already.

Good race today though. Amazing how deep the field is, other than a couple Penske, Ganassi, and Andretti cars...

As far as the restart debacle.. Why does the race director throw the green way before the leader enters the restart zone?? That's what caused that bottleneck. Not Will Power brake checking.

I just got back from St. Petersburg last Saturday. I went to the race and I had a great time. The St. Petersburg area is like heaven!! I spent three weeks going around the Clearwater, Tampa, St. Pete area and it is such a great place. The race was fantastic!! It did get rained out on Saturday, but the rest of the time was great!! The guys at Firestone told me that Indycar/Firestone has renewed their contract with the city of St. Petersburg through 2017. So, God willing, I'll be going back for the next three years. Now........on to Indy. My son and I already have our tickets for the Indianapolis Gran Prix and the Indy 500. So, let's start racing!!
