Race thread: 104th Indy 500

[Old Kid]

Another rookie bites the dust. Hard hit there

She's a harsh mistress.

Saving fuel.

I meant the frequency of it. If it's all planned, do it every 3-5 laps and create less turbulence, etc. But I can see the argument for why they may have thought the turbulence would inhibit the cars behind.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Just as Sato was about to get around Dixon too.

Pretty sure this makes Pato the only rook not to be in some sort of incident today.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Argy bargy.

 

[JBone88]

Indy pit road strikes again. Hope Sato’s wing is okay

 

[FLRacingFan]

Well ****, I hope that didn't damage the suspension.

 

[gnomesayin]

Imagine if NASCAR did the "unsafe release" thing.

Fenders.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Anyone else notice that it’s been nice to actually watch the race and not have an ad every 8 minutes?

 

[Old Kid]

Bad day for Rossi now.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Great day for the NAPA drivers. WTF man

 

[*WEAVER*]

Maybe they will keep Rutledge up there and never let him down.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

All of Dixon’s competition keeps screwing themselves.

 

[JBone88]

What a load of ****. Congrats to Dixon on the win.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Ridiculous. Sorry, but Max Papis and Kyle Novak are bad in Race Control.

Granted, probably shouldn't have happened because it looks like Rossi had a problem on the right rear. It always goes wrong for him on pit road.

 

[gnomesayin]

Fenders.

I think it's a necessary rule, as long as it is consistently enforced. Just imagining...

 

[FLRacingFan]

CGR kept Rosenqvist out there to do the swap thing with Dixon. Sly.

 

[gnomesayin]

Can we get a live crossover between this and the Cup race so Rick Allen can tell us about Rossi's ADVERSITY?

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Rossi about to put on a damn show

 

[Old Kid]

Rossi shouldn't be so timid.

 

[FLRacingFan]

That was NUTS. There's nothing like a pissed off Alexander Rossi.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

TK in 10th.

 

[Kiante]

Rossi is something else passing here.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Wow.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Rossi is something else passing here.

Not any more.

 

[Old Kid]

No more Rossi thrills today. Too bad.

 

[2019PensekeFan]

So much for driving angry. Though break for Rossi.

 

[gnomesayin]

Haven't noticed much difference honestly. When they're reading promos for NBC shows during green flag racing and missing live crashes...

 

[FLRacingFan]

Terrible, terrible season for Rossi.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Welp. :\

 

[Kiante]

Not any more.

Sato is our only hope.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Bruh.

Alright y'all, I'm gonna go dig myself a hole out back and lay there until next Saturday.

 

[Kiante]

Get your ass back in here...lol

Always next week champ.

 

[gnomesayin]

It could have been a hell of a duel between Dixon and Rossi until the penalty (which I agree with). Oh well, that's the way it goes.

 

[JBone88]

Some guys have all the luck. Others not so much.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I'm switching between races, and every time I do, something happens. Guess I'd better pick one and stick with it.

Dixon has had a Golden horseshoe about as long as Jimmie.

This man is going to **** around a win the championship today.

If he wins today he could probably take a week off and still win it.

Newgarden is second in points as they run right now at 100 back. Dixon could almost sleepwalk to the title from here if things hold.

I'm watching this one and looking at the live leader board on NASAR.
