Sato the first to bin one of the new tubs. Hes ok.quote:Sato's big Turn 2 crash in his RLL Honda saw the reigning Indy 500 winner ricochet from the outside of Turn 2 to the inside, and then back to the outside again, coming to a stop in the middle of Turns 3 and 4, according to one eyewitness. http://www.racer.com/indycar/item/148078-winds-sato-crash-curtail-texas-testing

Holy poo poo I missed that the first time through. Cooooold. Unrelated but it came to my mind while chatting earlier today. Has any driver other than AJ won the 500 with both forced induction and natural aspiration, prior to turbos being alternatively banned or mandatory?

Speaking of AJ, he got attacked by bees while fuckin around on his tractor... AGAIN http://www.racer.com/indycar/item/148081-foyt-recovering-after-another-killer-bee-attack quote:"It was scary, I won't lie," Foyt told RACER on Thursday evening while sitting in his race shop in Waller, Texas. "I pushed down a tree with my bulldozer and thought I saw a bunch of honey bees but they weren't. aj please i beg of you.... never stop whatever it is the hell that you do everyday. never ever stop it.

It’s amazing, let’s enjoy before the swings and roundabouts start again. Interesting that Miles would drop that they have “at least three” multinationals in line for the sponsorship. Trying to think who would fit the profile of the mentioned companies, not sure though. But still - it’s good times now.

If AJ Foyt is ultimately murdered by bees while on a tractor then that's a loving awesome way to go out imo

The coverage of St. Petersburg was the only bad thing about that entire race (besides the physical manifestion of Hitler, Genghis Khan, Attilia the Hun and Henry Kissinger in the form of Alexander Rossi).

In all seriousness I'd like to see at least DeBruhl make the jump, but I'm partial because he was on the local news for so drat long. Alternate nightmare fuel: Danica in the booth after Indy.

I can't tell if i enjoy Bestwick or if I just like him because he's the only one with a reasonable personality and commentary skills in the booth.

Just realised, I hope the NBC deal had been closed already. I'd rather Indycar not get lovely terms if NBC thinks they have no competition.

The tweet that spilled the beans got deleted. Clearly he said something that should NOT have been said at this point, and certainly not by him. However, if talks had gotten to the point where ABC the Network was in the process of informing its affiliates that they'd better start preparing for their last Indy 500 ratings bonanza... I think it's already a done deal. And a good one. ed- The internet never forgets.
