James Hinchcliffe driving the Go Daddy car this year, oh yeah, someone named Danica drove the car last year I believe, anyhow, has now won two races! He passed the leader, Sato, on the final turn in the final lap to take the checkered flag. One of the more exciting Indy road races I have ever seen. My Indy insider hates the road races, remember, he calls them “parades”. I gotta say however, this road race was something else, especially the finish. There were wall crashes, cars catching fire (Will Power) and then the finish. Sato kept blocking Hinch but at the very last possible moment, he made it through to take the victory. The final top five were: James Hinchcliffe, Sato, M. Andretti, O. Servia and J. Newgarden. My guy, who had started third and was in second for a good bit of the race, Dario Franchitti, finished seventh. After an awful start to the season, Dario has not finished fourth and seventh, with the big one looming on the horizon. The road races are behind us, the ovals begin! YES..for true Indy race fans, these are the races we live for, especially the Indy 500. Indy is May 26th, few weeks away. Hope Dario can continue to improve on his momentum and perhaps take it for the fourth time?
Congrats to Go Daddy and James Hinchcliffe today. What a finish!
