Turn 1 lap 1 has not been kind to the open wheelers today.
The Indy cars were 4 and 5 wide heading in to turn 1 and that
will usually end badly. This race will get interesting. They better have
some wets ready.

Good to see Graham Rahall up there amongst the Chevys. I wonder if he can follow through and impress like he did at Barber?

It would be great if Rahal won this.

There's 14 laps left and he's just under 3 seconds behind Power. You never know.

Congrats to Power, a solid drive and another excellent drive from Rahall. On the other hand not a good race for Dixon, after being spun round by Castroneves, not the best 300th start and an even worse race for Hawksworth, also involved in that Turn 1 incident, finishing -13 laps down. I suppose there is some consolation, in that he finished ahead of Pagenaud who retired.

Well that race calmed down. Ditto the other
posts. Good 8th place for Coletti.

Well, I would have wanted to watch it but could not find a stream. Trying to watch IndyCar from Germany can be rather difficult at times.

It's up on YT already.

It was an ok race. I think the ABC coverage is so ar behind the NBCSN team. They missed so much stuff while chatting away about crap. It appears massively geared to the casual fan. Theu don't really call the race.

Rahal very impressive again. Bet he wishes there was another road course next week

Agreed on the coverage. They nearly missed the start. Didn't bother announcing things that were happening. Didn't offer any insight on the level the NBC guys do. Just wasn't very good.

Really enjoying seeing rahal come into his own. I pull mostly for him, bourdais, pagenaud and andretti.

The Spanish-language ESPN announcers also nearly missed the start, as the cameras showed the track rather than the cars.

I didn't pay a lot of attention to the numbers trackside during the race, but there were so few on the track walk afterwards. Looked like maybe 200 at the most.

Wow... Marco was nowhere.

Agree with the comments above re: the commentary and coverage. There were drivers I think I never saw or heard mentioned (Chavez, Filippi... even Marco) although I admit I did fall asleep for a few laps in the middle.

Andretti Autosport not having a good year.
Having a Roush (NASCAR) like year . Maybe they
will get it turned around for the 500.
