INDY 500 2017

15 min to start your engines.

232 poll!!!! yikes we are creeping up there again.

I think the vizer cam is going to be cool.

What are the thin string like things on the windshield of the fuzzes car (ed carpenter) you can see them on the in car

Here we go!!!!

Holly crap are these things fast this year

Yeah, over 200 mph things happen quickly.

Alonso leads!

He looks comfortable.

Shiznit, that was close.

Wow, that was a harsh accident. Dixon was very unlucky to get into the crash, very lucky to have his car break in half that way, and walk away. Holy cow.

Just unbelievable

I just noticed another car went under the car as it was upside down twenty feet in the air

Edit. Maybe more like 30-40 feet in the air. Just WOW

Fed flag

Just amazing everyone walked away

Helio. Some amazing luck there for a 3 time winner.

Agreed. That looked very scary, I'm amazed that both drivers walked away from that.

We are going to be seeing this one in photos and replay for years to come.

Looks like the photographer may be the only one that got hurt.

Alonzo holds the lead through the pit stop. The way he seems to slowly come to a stop makes me think he would loose time but I guess slow is fast.

Alonzo has the instincts of a racer, like alfa said, he looks comffortable

Should Lo finish top three, I would hope put the F1 naysayers in their place, better than what happened at Monaco......

These guys need to calm down. Way to many aggressive moves only 1/3 into the race. RHR almost did one, but then Connor Daly's move was just bad.

And second time Helio got away with something.

Didn't see what you were talking about, but it may be something he uses to judge when he is in dirty air.

I was thinking the same. You can see them in the camera that is on the car that is looking at the driver.
