damnit damnit damnit, was away this weekend and completely forgot about the indy 500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just caught the last 10 laps. Well done TK! Shame that the race finished under caution as it looked like there was going to be a great scrap in the final two laps.
Same. But I'm really, really glad to see that Charlie Kimball made it into the top 10. Don't stop believing!
Its amateur day for race 2 at Detroit.
JPM back at Indycar with Penske το 2014!!
Very very scary accident for Dario Franchitti. Thankfully it sounds like his condition isn't too bad considering the ferocity of the crash.
Four-time IndyCar Series champ Dario Franchitti suffered a concussion and broken back in a spectacular crash during the final lap of the Houston Grand Prix that was won by Will Power.
The Scotsman's injuries also included a broken right ankle, said IndyCar's head of medical services Michael Olinger.
"(Franchitti) was admitted awake and alert to Memorial Hermann Texas Medical Center in Houston for a concussion and spinal fracture that will require no surgery and a fracture to the right ankle. He will be kept overnight," Olinger said.
Franchitti's car went airborne Sunday after colliding with Takuma Sato and slammed into the safety fencing before coming to a halt in the middle of the street circuit track.
He was stretchered off the track and taken by ambulance to the nearby hospital.

Apparently his team manager came out with this line "His ankle and back are a little sore. He is going to be okay."
What is this guy on.
