He ended up 7th. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. It will be extraordinary if he qualified in the top 3!
Too bad about Bourdais
Quote:
Sebastien Bourdais suffered "multiple fractures to his pelvis and a fracture to his right hip" after a horror crash during qualifying for the Indy 500.
Not so fun for Bourdais. That was a nasty hit, glad its only that much (relatively speaking) damage. Fred looked very smooth on his run, especially for a rookie.Quote:

Almost reminded me of Gordon Smiley's fatal qualifying crash in 82'. Glad we didn't get the same result.Quote:
