Honda's PR department.

"Don't worry, our road cars are nowhere near as bad as the piles we put on race tracks!"

So I think we're all in agreement now... Fernando Alonso is the unluckiest driver to ever live...

Nah that has to be Mark Webber. Or Felipe Massa.

*"Taps plays*

And another big crash...

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.

This is nonsense lol.

 

[Tornado]

Go Sato!

 

[Flaren89]

This is nonsense lol.

Might be nonsense... But if you closely think of it, actually works like that...

 

[catamount39]

Well, today is probably not a good day for anyone that works for both Honda's engineering department and Honda's PR department.

"Now Hiring..."

 

[LumpiestFish]

This is the first ever Indy 500 that I've watched live and it's definitely been worth the very early wake up so far. Currently 5:46 am and the sun is almost about to come up lol.

Throw away the fuel game because of all the cautions...now it's all-out racing!

Gonna counter you with a Aussie bloke named Mark Webber.

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

Alonso not ruling out future entries to the 500.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

So..uh Max Chilton FTW?

 

[Robin]

Alonso seems to be very receptive to coming back in the interview, really hope he does and wins the thing!

 

[Leadfoot530]

This just in: Honda stocks have dropped more than their cylinders in their engines.

It wouldn't surprise me

FTFY

 

[TRGTspecialist]

If Chilton wins the damn thing I won't know what life is anymore.

 

[coryclifford]

Why do they veer inside on the straights?

#anybuthelioplease

You might've jinxed it.

 

[Tornado]

SATO!

 

[Cowboy]

Let's go Castroneves!

 

[Northstar]

Come on Sato!!!

Why do they veer inside on the straights?

IIRC it's so the car behind can't get inside at the corner.

 

[BKGlover]

Alonso had a damn good race, Davidson had a good showing too, and when it's been green it's been a pretty good race.

Takuma Sato leading Helio with Ed Jones in 3rd.

 

[ryandtw]

COME ON TAKUMA SATO!!!

 

[Tornado]

YES!

 

[Cowboy]

Takuma Sato wins!

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

I think Takuma found a big spider in his cockpit.

 

[MSZ]

Sato wins, I didn't expect that before the race.

 

[Robin]

Not the F1 driver I expected to win!
