96th Indianapolis 500 (Full Race post #430)

[Gfunkera]

I absolutely love the onboard "TV cam" view.

It's 26. Thats good... Who used to drive 26?

Wheldon himself, if i recall.

 

[Bopop4]

Dan Wheldon...

I don't really watch Indycar, also thought that Wheldon was the 77, guess not.

Dan raced for Andretti-Green years ago in the #26, before Marco entered the series. Then Dan went on to the #10 Ganassi, and then #4 Panther Racing before 2011. #98 was his Indy 500 car last year and #77 is what he raced his last two races in.

Welcome to GTPlanet. 👍

 

[vetteman24]

[Gfunkera]

Welcome to GTPlanet. 👍

What happened with the two Lotus cars?

What happened with the two Lotus cars?

They were parked for being too slow.

 

[Bushby_23]

My coverage via feed is below sub par, get two seconds of delayed video for 10 seconds of random gap. Once again, I'll be missing out. It's ok Aus free to air, we only had two drivers in the top 5 that are in their prime, and no coverage given what so ever, thats fine.

 

[GTPorsche]

What happened with the two Lotus cars?

Weren't within the 105% rule. Which was 110% expected to happen.

 

[Bopop4]

Too slow, so they were DQ'd.

 

[GTPorsche]

Why thank you kind sir.

You finally joined.

 

[Sam48]

The racing so far is excellent 👍

 

[Bopop4]

The cars are so colourful, like Nascar paint was put onto an F1.

 

[Prince.M5]

Barrichello is way down in 24th I believe. Not liking what I'm seeing...

 

[Gfunkera]

You finally joined.

The prophecy said I would bring balance to GTP.

 

[Bopop4]

Still 400 miles to go, he could be there at the end.

 

[Northstar]

I hate ABC's coverage.

Too much time watching the leader run alone instead of focusing on the rest of the field.

Which is absolutely no different than NASCAR coverage.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Let me make some predictions:

1. Marco won't win
2. Sato will crash, or otherwise finish poorly
3. Someone that's getting scant coverage will win

 

[photonrider]

Sato, again!! How does he appear?

 

[GTPorsche]

Sato is a ninja.

 

[Northstar]

Which is absolutely no different than NASCAR coverage.

Never said it was.

 

[Rossell2]

I know I'm late but anyone got any live video stream?

 

[Prince.M5]

Sato is really on fire. This is nice to see!

 

[photonrider]

There's so much racing going on around the world today the Earth is shaking.

For the literal minded: I'm kidding, okay? It's still terra firma.

 

[GTPorsche]

Sato

 

[Furinkazen]

Guys, when you get time please watch this. Its brilliant. UK Viewers may not have seen this yet.

 

[Prince.M5]

Sheesh Sato, that was just an inch away from a disaster!
