Please, not Derek Daley--after his performance during Champ Car broadcasts, he doesn't deserve more time at the microphone. Jon Beekhuis is a must---he explains what's happened better and more...

It never ceases to amaze me what people will say when they have no idea what they're talking about...

The rapid turnover of replacement drivers at D&R shows how little interest they have in winning. I'm not sure, other than some behind-the-scenes funding benefits, what good comes of having new...

Can Danica "find some speed" on Move That Block.com? How many laps-worth can she buy?

Has she looked everywhere? Has she asked her teammates where they look for speed? Did she forget to stop at the speed shop on the way to the track to pick up a party pak of speed? Is this like the...

Let's hope she does, so we can get on to the important business of building a race series.

Randy's statement is more of a move to generate attention than it is an accurate prediction of future events. The race could be broadcast on the big Three networks and draw a cumulative .5 and he...

The John McEnroe quote is "You cannot be serious!"

I think that no one believes Randy will quit if the race doesn't draw the required .8 rating--he'll create a reason why it's OK that he's going...

They don't do a full podium (first three places), just the winner. "Victory Lane" is so tight there, once you bring the car in plus the team plus the wives and sponsors, there's no room for anyone...

And into the front row...not like the lame Andretti clan, buy a back-marker slot...

Let's get back to talking about the race.

CDW announced they will be the primary sponsor of Oriol Servia's #2 car for the Indy 500. Nice to see them come back into motor sports.

Gary, you're right--I should have known that people wouldn't be able to make the distinction and would claim I was trying to do something I wasn't.

Anyone who thinks the point of my post was that Bruno getting bumped is the equivalent of denying woman's suffrage...wow, that's some willful mis-reading on a epic scale. My point, which was clear,...

You can replace a driver who qualified with one who didn't because it's the car that qualifies--indeed that's the rule, but that doesn't make it right.

Michael Kinsley has postulated the First...

You would think this thread would be about which of the 3 4-time winners of the Indy 500 is the greatest--but instead we're arguing over how many great chariot racers can dance on the head of a pin...

This is bad for the "sport", bad for IndyCar, bad for the 500, bad for Bruno, good for DHL, and I'm sure let's Michael not feel so bad about himself. I hope Michael hasn't felt this bad since his...

Watching the interview with RHR yesterday after he got bumped, I thought that they hung on to what quickly became a pointless interview far too long--and then it hit me that they were doing it so DHL...

What are my thoughts about an Indy 500 without Danica? It would be preferable to one with her, because more of the focus would be on the race, and the racers. It's an interesting contrast to golf,...

I was a guest of Andretti Green one day-after Pole Day not long ago. They were courting my company a bit, so they wanted their drivers to be nice to me. The Andretti family was having a gathering...

Should we put Danica Fan on suicide watch?

It would somehow be karma if on the day after we were told by wild-eyed fanatics that the world was going to end (and didn't, duh), if Danica was to...

Where Danica Fan is concerned we have to remember that the word "fan" derives from "fanatic", which is defined as "someone with extreme or uncritical zeal or enthusiasm." Danica Fan's zeal is indeed...

No one who's been alive and awake for the past 30 years thinks that Trump decided he shouldn't drive the pace car if he was going to run for President. After last weeks' White House Corresponden't...

Will this be the race where Danica is so fast in qualifying that she's the only driver allowed into the Fast 6--obviously taking the pole, and is so far ahead at the end of the race that they award...

I'll never forget the bolero hat with the fabric balls dangling off the brim that Marco's mom wore while occurpying the timing stand at Indy one year while husband Michael was dicing for the race...

We'd all be better of if they'd nix Wally (as they did Robbie) and leave Jon Beekhuis as the only other announcer in the booth. He knows the racing, and he knows the broadcasting--he's the best...
