Watching Indy 500.... makes me grateful that Monaco, Valencia and Abu Dhabi are classed as boring F1 races.

Man its worse than paint drying.

It doesn't matter so much in the race, but now they were just waiting the rain to start. They should have listened McLaren's team radio.
Indycar thread dude :p

Yeah I've never seen the appeal of oval racing bar the last few laps. Still watching though as I have nothing better to do. :p

Massive crash by Conway, he's okay thankfully..

Just saw the replay, Castroneves is lucky not to be hit by a tire and Conway really, really lucky to be alive, his head was so close to the catch fence..

Verizon out, and Conway narrowly avoiding ripping his head off against the catch fencing... again.

Also Helio narrowly avoiding a flying tyre.
