Pick The Podium: IndyCar - St. Pete

[IndyAndy]

Time to kick off the 2013 IndyCar Series season.

One of the best street circuts around IMO: They always seem to put on a good show there.

I'm waiting to see how qualifying goes, but if you want to go ahead and make your picks now, go for it.

Interesting qualifying. Chevy teams seem to have the advantage, but I'm going with the 'dark horse' pick:

'take 'em out' Sato bags his 1st win on Sunday.

My Picks:

1st) Sato
2nd) Hinchcliffe
3rd) Power

I'm pumped to see de Silvestro qualify so well, but since this is her 1st time starting this far up, I'm saying that she squanders the opportunity.

NEXT time, however....

1) Power
2) RHR
3) Simona de Silvestro

Yikes - neither of us are off to a strong start.

Congrats to James Hinchcliffe on his 1st IndyCar victory.

Simona sure did well all afternoon: Shame that she couldn't get two more laps out of her last set of tires.

How we did:

IndyAndy: 1 point - got Hinchcliffe out of position.
forty_three: nada

Next up: Barber Motorsports Park in two weeks.

Obviously still plenty of time for anyone else to join in & win this!

Glad my Hockey Survivor picking Jinx works over here too.

I don't like Power or Alonso.
