Oh man Bourdais just came unglued at about 232mph. I hope he is ok!
Yeah, that was a pretty good nose in hit. I always worry about the driver's legs when they hit the wall like that..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.
Harsh hit for the ex-F1 driver , Bourdais .
It's going to take him a while to come back as there's a lot of bed time in his future right now .
Nice job by Rossi , going fast right afterwards .
And , great job by Taku , too .
But , tough for JPM , going out so early .
So , Alonso can look around at his F1 compatriots and see everything from disaster to the front row .
I remember watching the 500 back in the '60s on "Wide World of Sports" , when all we got for races to watch was this race and Monaco .
Having an current F1 driver in the field feels like the good old days .
It kinda makes me feel like a kid again , in the excitement for the race .
Yes great for Taku, and RossiQuote:

Glad to hear he gets to walk ( maybe hobble) away from this one. He was on course to topple the best time if he had completed that lap. It is pain killers for a few years from now on. I wonder if he is going to hang up his gloves and boot; retire or something. My guts tell me, he may get into another car when he recovers. Whatever he decides, l genuinely wish him well on his recovery.
I remember seeing a sign at the F1 Indy race in 2000 saying "Montoya is coming !" , and relishing the thought .Quote:

New Honda Engine for Alonso
More Honda problems for Fred :rolleyes:
Quote:
Alonso had had no reported engine problems on his No. 29 McLaren/Andretti Autosport Honda this week but, following Saturday’s[Sundays] practice session in which he set the fastest average speed at 231.317 mph, videos on social media showed smoke coming out of Alonso’s car in the garage. The engine was changed as a precaution
