Pick the Podium: Indycar- Pocono, PA

[Retroram52]

This race may have a tough time completing because Hurricane Arthur is moving up the east coast. We shall see.

Whiney babies: Slap on the rain tires and drive.

That too Indy!

This looks like another krap shoot so I'll take Montoliet, Ryan Hunter-Reay, and Will Power.

 

[IndyAndy]

Castroneves, Hinchcliffe, Montoya

Nice win for Montoilet and one-two for Penske. Onward we go.

I watched about the first 1/3 of that: Then I just HAD to go find something else to do. - What a snooze-fest!

I made it back for the final 30 laps or so.

Here's how we did:

Retroram52: 5 points - picked Montoya to win
IndyAndy:2 points - got Castroneves & Montoya out of position.

Season Totals So Far:

Retroram52: 25 points
IndyAndy: 14 points

Next Up: Iowa, on Saturday night.

I did the same Indy. I just pulled a NASCAR. I watched the start, went and did other things and returned like you did. Otherwise you can be bored to tears. There were only 21 cars that started. I think the series is in trouble. The stands were very empty. We shall see going forward.

Will Power's drive-through penalty (for blocking Castroneves) & subsequent poor finish has completely erased his championship points lead. He & Helio are now tied at 446 points.

I swear. When Power gets a lead at anything with the IRL, he finds a way to screw it up and yesterday was just another example in a long line of incidents.

No, no, no. Dear Willy never does anything wrong. It's all a conspiracy against him!

Hadn't watched an Indy race in about a month. Think I'm done for the year. Hurts too much to hear PTs voice and remember what open wheel racing USED to be,
