It has been in every race. It was well out of the points when she left the car (in a smoking heap)

:D

The sickness of over half the first 30 minutes being Danica, Danica, Danica, Dancia is driving me nuts. Such BS! ABC has to have smarter producers than this. I guess we wouldn't expect anything different but under the circumstances it couldn't be more inappropriate. I'm about to turn it off...freakin' turned off the Indy 500 because of Danica!?

I know better. ABC is on mute. I have Indycar.com for sound. ABC should be ACD - all "All Commercials & Danica".

Well the Boo-birds were out in force during the driver intros.

I'm thinking the wall will be looming a little larger and a little closer today for the brand

5th. Good finish for DP.

Why would that finish today make the happenings of this month/year/pro career any different? She was just as uncompetitive today as she was all month/year/pro career. A very fortunate finish (see Indy 500 thread). Nothing takes away the results of her and her team today but the performance is hardly redeeming.

Not me. When she quits relying on her pit crew for her advancements on the track and starts some real, true racing to earn her finishes, I'll eat lots and lots of crow. Til then - nope.

A 5th place finish on fuel strategy? Please. She was NEVER ON PACE with the better drivers.
