This race could come to Chilton yet since he just pitted when that caution came out.

 

[Vinylshark]

That's the second Honda engine gone.

2nd Honda hand grenade special.

For the most part, commercials have been during cations, but in the US we get side by side racing even during commercials., not bad

Yes the small screen barely visible on my TV is really brilliant....at least NBC makes it decently sized.

The Holmatro team just whiffed again.

Honda engine #2 has not the dust. Charlie Kimball is out.

I though all the Honda engines were brand new after smoking them all during qualifying and practice.LOL

I saw a story about Honda reliability troubles a day or two ago. It's a shame they can't provide reliable engines for two series.

Trying to figure out what happened to Alonso... was leading until the last caution and then fell waaaay back...

 

[Vinylshark]

Kinda disappointing to see Alonso being in the Top 5 the whole race and now towards the end being stuck around 10th place

They have been pretty solid for most of the races except Indy this year. Even HPD themselves were surprised by the reliability problems this month because they've been very stout in both pace and durability until now.

There are different strategies going around. Alonso is on the same strategy as the group predicted to be fighting for the win at the end.

A thing that people are understanding also in Italy. From few years we got MotoGP races with these side-by-side screens with commercials, from a couple also on F1, in this latter trading from 10 seconds commercial to 15, but actually getting this screen.

And Rai have been showing commercials during throw-ins in football for years. Extremely annoying.

 

[IforceV8]

I pray to you Jobu

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Alonso now 8th

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Another one for 7th

 

[Dennisch]

Alonso doesn't look like a rookie at all. Several ballsy moves from him.

NOOOOOOOOOOO ****ING HONDA ****.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Well, what do you know...

 

[Vinylshark]

Great move from Sato around the outside.

 

[ryandtw]

NOOOOO

Alonso's engine blown!!!

 

[Cowboy]

Alonso is out

 

[Michelin]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Ameer67]

Wow, poor Alonso.

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

NOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

F1 engine...F1 engine

 

[Vinylshark]

Alonso's Honda died.....

 

[GTP_Patrick1]

Ugh

 

[Robin]

NOooooooooo!

 

[Tornado]

Oh God I'm laughing for real

This is because of the "audience". People watching F1 are actually motorsport enthusiasts, and won't watch a race in TV if they cut the action with commercials in wrong moments. Soccer is for mindless puppets, which will keep watching even if producers puts commercials right in the middle of the action, like what is happening for movies and TV shows.

 

[C-ZETA]

But of course.

 

[Flaren89]

Aaaaaaand Alonso gg wp....
