I'm saying he should have went inside early to defend, he twitched to the inside after Rossi made his move. If he'd have gone fully for that, *that* world have been blocking. Rossi made a lovely move and ruined Wickens' race after Wickens left the door open

Sucks for Wickens, owns for Bourdais. New car kicks rear end, rookies are impressive, Penske and Ganassi looked like trash. “It’s Good”

I too enjoy a large glass of water after a hard day.

Maybe shaking it up with a piece of white bread for dessert.

One time I got a little crazy and had some unsalted unbuttered popcorn. What a while night that was.

I enjoy Newgarden purely because if he wasn't a racing driver he said he'd be an engineer and is all about NASA and poo poo. Do not insult my cool space racing friend. :colbert:

gently caress Power though.

This is funny because I know a girl who threw the green for the Lights race at St. Pete a few years ago.

Just got back from the race, the rookie was surprisingly good, it's too bad he got taken out but Sebastian's win is popular in St.Pete since he's a resident so that's cool. It reminds me of when Dan Wheldon lived here and he won the race, definitely a local pride thing so everyone here loves it. We miss Dan :(

Since I don't follow Indy all that closely I was pleasantly surprised by the new car it kicks rear end.

Also the Stadium Trucks are no longer on the bill and it's a major bummer, anyone know what happened with that?

So Rossi blames Wickens for the crash by saying Wickens moved under braking and forced him on to the marbles which made him lose control and crash into Wickens.

Wow, gently caress off. I never really liked Rossi but I didn't dislike him either. Seems like his only trait that anyone cares about is Indy 500 winner and he's otherwise a boring piece of garbage that can't race clean.

He's Scott Speed with an Indy 500 win.
