How the heck did that happen? I thought when he hit the wall and it brought out the caution, the race order stopped. So he was still in the lead but the other driver passed him after the caution and won?????

Twice in one day?

I don't know Indy car rules, but in NASCAR, when the caution comes out, the field is frozen, HOWEVER, you must maintain a reasonable speed. So, if you wreck and can't continue, or slow way down to where other cars pass you, you loose those potitions.



What a finish to the NASCAR race. Wow!

I believe officials were a few seconds late on the yellow flag,from
what others reported. I didn't know what "spotters" were before reading
their role in the race. This Sports report explains the race details.

I wonder how many US races the Aussies will win this year.
Maybe all of them.
We love enriching ourselves at the expense of your slow drivers

This is probably Ambose Road Course year if not a short track. He has the skill, and it looks like he has some good equipment also.

Marcos is such a nice guy! Got to meet him last year at MIS. I too would love to see him win a race.

I know racers will do anything to race, but THIS as a sponsor?



I'd like to thank the Huggies/Ganassi racing team for giving me a really good car and helping us keep poop under control?

Wom,

When I first heard Ambrose being interviewed before a race, I really had to 'listen' to what he was saying.

Usually, the drivers drone on and on-that interview was actually entertaining.

I was hoping he'd throw in some 'Dundee-isms'!

I loved the interview Wheldon gave with ESPN the morning before Carb day. He said he's tell AJ to take his compensation (for Bruno Junqueria stepping out of the car he quald and letting Ryan Hunter Reay have the seat) and stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

However, that comment probably doesn't endear him to sponsors.

Like ......"THAT isn't a car. THIS is a car."

If you didn't watch the NASCAR Nationwide race @ Road America, you just missed one helluva finish!

There were a few upset and happy people over the way it all shook out. It looks like Jacques Villeneuve made a few enemies over his over aggressive driving in the first and the last Green white checker.
