Good god just start the race. The rain finally clears out and they’ve been doing an hour long pre race show. Nobody is watching or going to this race for this stuff.

One lap in. Woof.

 

[NWICY]

Not long before that crash.

 

[Acylum]

Just not the same without Jim Nabors.

Santino thinks his car is dialed in

 

[NWICY]

Lots of aggressive racing today. Even on pit lane.

 

[Acylum]

Not sure I heard right- was Carpenter planning on doing both races today before the delayed start?

No Kyle Larson is planning on it

Larson.

Holy cow this is a accident laden Indy 500. Not quite but close to bumper cars at 200mph. Lots of aggressive driving.

Different strategies at work here. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

No rubber on the track after the rain.

Getting ridiculous now.

That last yellow gave everybody enough fuel to the finish should be fun if they can keep it out of the walls and not into each other.

So why overtake at the white flag when it’s so easy to get passed again? Don’t you wait for the last turn or two on the last lap and just send it? The guy in 1st is basically a sitting duck, no?

 

[JP4CY]

Oh boy did he purposivefully or playfully push a cop on the way to the stands?

 

[BigJCy]

Newgarden goes back to back.

Excellent back and forth battle at the end.

Felt like O'Ward just jumped the gun by one straight
