Not ALMS like I hoped, Indy cars. Oh well, I'll watch a few minutes just to see the new cars.

Versus doesn't exist anymore. It's NBC Sports now.

This season of IndyCar is actually really interesting. The first two rounds have been quite good so far.

Chevy pulled out all 11 engines for replacement after Hinchcliffe (iirc) blew his up. That means all 11 Chev powered cars will receive a 10 grid spot penalty after qualifying. They have, thus far, been dominant, but can they work through the field?

According to reports he did a masterfull job of saving fuel after he got the lead. 10th to 1st., great drive.

Yeah he ran out of fuel on his victory lap. And he could have made it all the way around if it wasn't for that late traffic jam.

Indycar competition is great this year, it's really drawn me in. It doesn't help that I'm a Rubens Barrichello fan.

Had to quote for truth. He, and his father, are two of the biggest clowns IMO. Shows how much professionalism Marco has. You can see in Graham's interview, he kept tight lipped on the incident, but Marco had to act like some drama queen on Maury, awaiting the test results
