Are you guys watching this race??? Four full course cautions in the first 16 laps!! The first full race lap was on lap 17. Geeeeez. Also not sure what's up with Power - - - a little off the pace.
Well it turned into a pretty good race. Franchitti and Power 1st and 2nd though Dario really walked away with it. I think though that the two big stories were (1) KV Racing put two cars into the top 5 with TK on the podium; and (2) Simona De Silvestra finished 4th and showed that she is a legitimate race car driver. She hounded TK throughout the closing laps and dealt with a couple blocking moves from him and a little bit of nonsense from KV teammate EJ Viso who was 4 laps down - all with professionalism and great skill. I was really impressed.
...but the first several laps were yellows d/t a silly start rule. The drivers knew the T1 pile ups would happen and they did. I seriously hope the rest of the season is better than that.

ReplyDeleteWhat an awsome race it was and good to see the Indycars back on track.
After watching the most boring F1 race and well event it was good to see some pure racing again!
