That was a nasty looking accident. Castronevas (sp?) going under the flying car had to be a pants shitting moment.

J.C...Missed the crash - caught it at the end on replay - However, these cars carry too much speed to be racing on this ancient oval /round circuit ...
Unbelievable...

I remember Michael Schumacher saying years ago that drivers have to be crazy to race open wheel at Indy 500 - There is no run-off - nothing...
I remember one year Formula 1 drivers boycotted right before of the race because of tire compound and safety issues - They never went back - They left the fans sitting in their seats...F1 now races at the beautiful COTA in the U.S.

Wow, IndyCar is garbage!
I keep turning the channel - When I turn back to Indy, there is a safety car on the track. The only reason I am watching is to see two-time F1 champion Alonso sit in that God-awful IndyCar. This is the first time Alonso has stepped into an IndyCar and he is running second with a bad road crew - Looks like his pit crew are rookies - no? Oh boy, bad restart for Alonso and he drops to P12 - Could spell trouble for Alonso now he is in a pack that races like amateurs. God Bless Alonso come back to Formula 1 - This sport is way beneath his racing talent...Oops another caution. Too bad McLaren Honda F1 car sucks - This is the reason Alonso did not race in Monaco today and hopped into a Honda IndyCar. When does the racing start? Oh Lord, car parts flying in the air again... Rant over.

Another Honda is out of the race -
With all these cars stopping and starting - Hard to pick a winner... Alonso on the move! Putting on a clinic ... Save yourself Alonso, IndyCar is not worth your life.

OMG! Alonso engine blew!
Honda! OMG - Alonso HATES Honda...Just like he hates driving for McLaren-Honda in F1. EDIT: Wow, 5-car crash! Open wheel should never race on this track - What a cluster. The back fillers are now leading... Yikes. Come On Sato! Win this race...! Former F1 driver Let's go Sato! Beat those IndyCar boys!

Congratulations Sato! Happy for him...He did not see it coming...Former Formula 1 driver wins the Indy500. IndyCar is pretty exciting when they are not crashing out. Hey, eDave! Happy Memorial Day!

Scarier even than the bassackwards landing on the safety cell wall was the landing flush on the cockpit protection triangle right after.

My live report from Indy:
*Worst crash I've seen there in 30 years. Shocked Dixon survived. *Awesome for Sato *Alonso is a f**** stud. Looked to the crowd after getting out, raised his arms and got a standing O |
