From my Facebook:

Don't forget, for all those who can't wait until tonight to see a race, the Grand Prix of Baltimore live from the streets of Charm City, today at 2:30pm EST on NBC Sports Network. If all the other on-track activity from this weekend is any indication, expect a barn burner. Will Power will lead the field to the green flag in the race he dominated in 2011. Power can lock up the championship with a good run, if Ryan Hunter-Reay and Helio Castroneves have problems. This race serves as the prelude to the IZOD IndyCar Series championship race, which will occur with the MavTV 500 on September 15th at Auto Club Speedway. It appears likely today's race will be run in the rain and that could allow someone to rain on the usual Penske/Andretti/Ganassi parade. It should be a good one.

I saw the reply, i seen it and he didn't go and pass til after the green, i guess it been better if they just all crashed even more cars cause an idiot didnt want to go.
 
IndyCar needs to set all the start finish lines to where all the cars can line up double wide before the start of the races. If your going to do double file restarts you need to do in a right and in far fashion. Then if someone jumps the restart it's easier to see/catch and call a penalty.

I don't know what replay you saw. He was beside the guy before the green came out.

From any reply I saw he didn't pass him until the green, i seen a few but like I said lets just crash more cars next time.

A number of teams said he jumped it. I guess they were all wrong huh? No one said a word about crashing so I have no idea why you keep saying that.

Dude, he was wheel to wheel with him just about when they dropped the green. Briscoe was well within the restart box. He got away with one.

If he didnt go cause the other idiot didnt go and then the ones behind them went what do you think happens?
 
Glad you had a good time Andy.

It was a good race. Congrats to Ryan Hunter-Reay. And no, he did not jump the restart. Briscoe just had a miscue when the green flag dropped. He got passed by both Ryan Hunter-Reay and Simon Pagenaud and almost by Dixon. He clearly had a very bad restart. It was a valid start.

Thanks. I loved it. The BGP is my Super Bowl and I loved it.

Agree on the restart. Briscoe just forgot to hit the skinny pedal.

Other than Indy that was the best Indycar race of the year IMO

It was certainly the best street course race in years. I agree that it's also one of the best all season. I don't think anyone expected it to be an entertaining race. I've never seen so much side-by-side racing on a road or street course in any series.
