Pick the Podium - IndyCar- 101st Running of the Indianapolis 500, IN, 2017

[Retroram52]

Sato is closing on Chilton for the lead. He is flying!

 

[Retroram52]

Alonso's day is done. The engine is gone. That is the second Andretti car to go with a blown engine. Those Hondas are not as durable as the Chevies obviously.

 

[Retroram52]

Alonso has had the fastest average lap time of any of the drivers today. Pretty impressive for a first timer.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Well that's disappointing, Alonso's race ends just like his F1 races have ended this year

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

It was fun to see him have a competitive car today

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Attrition rate has picked up rapidly

 

[Retroram52]

I'd like to see Ford or maybe even Dodge/Chrysler get involved with this series as an engine supplier.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Hell of a run by Alonzo.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the big one has happened.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Attrition rate has picked up rapidly

Yeah. Just a bit.

 

[Retroram52]

Servia takes out Davidson and starts the big one IndyCar style. Five cars collected.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Castroneves is living a charmed life...

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Hell of a run by Sato. Had plenty of car to hold off Helio.

 

[BallsOfFurry]

Brick kissing dipwads, nobody cares about horse racing or open wheel except for a few events.

 

[Retroram52]

Sato finally wins the 500.

 

[Retroram52]

Mikey wins his fifth as an owner.

Yeah, nothing like watching a bunch of babies play smash-up derby at 200+ miles an hour and then hear them bitch about it when they crash out. NASCAR's nothing but the WWE on wheels.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Wow lol.... Takuma Sato wins

Never saw that coming, I mostly remember him for all the crashed he caused in Formula one with his wild maneuvers

He drove really well there at the end

 

[Retroram52]

Yea BoiseStateFan. I used to call Sato "Crash Sato". He still crashes alot.

Yeah, I stopped watching when Honda was the sole supplier. Everybody was literally driving the same car.
