Indy 500

Helio Castroneves wins Indy 500; Button leads Brawn 1-2 in Monaco GP: Which
2009-05-25 08:15:00
Welcome back ladies and gentleman, as I sit here writing, its Monday early morning, its Memorial Day and yesterday was one of the biggest Motorsports days and the longest with the Monaco Grand Prix, the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca-Cola 600.However, it was the day that while I had looked forward too for months now, it wasn’t what I expected, as a matter a fact, it was a little disappointing, between not feeling well, a rained out Coca-Cola 600 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway for the NASCAR Cup Series that was postponed until later today (no fault of NASCAR), a sleeper Monaco Grand Prix and an ok Indianapolis 500, I didn’t feel it.I think all racing fans have heard the slogan “races can’t be won on the first lap, but sure can lost on the first lap”, well that slogan does hold true in most cases, however that one can be up for some debut when it comes to what I watched early this morning, namely the Monaco Grand Prix.Let me state the obvious, even though I am not a huge Formula ...
What are the top 5 biggest races in Motorsports? The Indy 500, Monaco Grand
2009-05-19 23:21:00
It’s a beautiful Tuesday evening, 70 degrees outside and sunny up here in Massachusetts and yet I am already thinking about the weekend, but not just any weekend, Memorial Day Weekend. Memorial Day Weekend is the biggest weekend in motorsports especially for me, on Sunday, two of the biggest race in motorsports will get the green flag, the Monaco Grand Prix and the Indianapolis 500 and history shows that both races should be exciting.This weekend also marks NASCAR’s second biggest and longest race of the season and ironically enough it is on Sunday as well, the Coca-Cola 600. Think about for a moment, I know I have, every year Motorsports fans sit down to watch one, two or even three (counting the NASCAR race) including me of these races in one day, damn that’s cool.Since this is the biggest Motorsports weekend, I figure that this is the perfect time to ask, what are the top 5 biggest races in Motorsports? I have been thinking about this question for a little while now and whi...
J. Andretti & Hunter-Reay bump in and Tagliani is out of the Indy 500 f
2009-05-18 02:48:00
Let me state the obvious, the Indianapolis 500 in my eyes is not only one of the biggest races all season long in Motorsports, but the biggest. When it comes to the month of May, I always look forward to seeing who will be in the Indianapolis 500 and of course watching a damn good race. Of course, on that same Sunday, I am watching the Monaco Grand Prix in the earlier morning hours and after the 500, its NASCAR turn for the Coca-Cola 600.But this time it’s the “Month of May” at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and its one week before the 500, so that means to race, you must first qualify and since this is not NASCAR with its top 35 being locked in, any driver whether you are a past IRL champion, Indy 500 winner or race winner, you must qualify your way in to the Indy 500 field on speed.For the 2009 Indianapolis 500, there is four days of qualifying, first last Saturday or what is commonly referred to as “Pole Day”. Pole Day sets only the first 11 spots on the grid and showcases...

Which was the most entertaining race to watch…Monaco Grand Prix, Indy 500
2008-05-28 05:26:00
What a sight for racing fans to watch this past weekend and whether you are a Formula 1 fan, an open wheel fan, a NASCAR fan or a like me a huge Motorsports fan that mainly enjoys watching NASCAR whether it’s on television or at the racetrack in the grandstands or on pit road, this weekend was for you, a triple header day that had fans logging the entire day in front of the TV set. So would my predictions came true, well we start he at 8am on the East Coast (at least my DVR started at this time, I for one didn’t as I had been sick due to bad food since last Thursday night).In Formula 1, the Monaco Grand Prix is the superbowl, just like the Daytona 500 is in NASCAR, I don’t know what it is, but even for a person who has since walked from Formula 1, it still draws me in and for this year’s Monaco GP, despite the lack of passing for the lead with only 3 lead changes, this was a good one. Normally F1 races are mostly parades with little passing throughout the field, however when...

Danica Patrick Was Pissed Off at Indy 500
2008-05-25 13:26:00
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Teammates Tony Kanaan and Marco Andretti tangled on the track, perhaps costing Kanaan a chance to win. Danica Patrick -- all 100 pounds of her -- went looking for a fight before cooler heads prevailed. No one was injured seriously in the seven crashes and spinouts that marred the race, but Kanaan still paid a heavy price. Popular: 2 hours 22 minutes ago source: (sportsillustrated.cnn.com)
Crew member recalls Indy 500 days but happy in Cup
2008-05-24 23:05:00
CONCORD, N.C. — In his racing career, Bill Spencer has worked for some iconic figures, namely Roger Penske. But it was his more-than-a-decade-long tenure with A.J. Foyt and the IndyCar Series that makes the 37-year-old Texas native nostalgic for Indy cars during the month of May. Yet he is helping prepare a stock car to run for 600 miles in North Carolina when in years prior Spencer was accustomed to the famous 500 in Indiana. He misses dinners with Foyt at St. Elmo’s in downtown Indianapolis, the pomp and pageantry of the greatest spectacle in racing and most of all he misses odd jobs Foyt would give him back at his Texas ranch, such as fixing bulldozers and other equipment. "This month is tough. After going to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for 11 years, you miss it. I watched Carb Day [Friday] …," said Spencer, who is now working for Kurt Busch’s No. 2 team and in his third season in NASCAR after leaving the open-wheel series in 2005. ...

What is going on this Memorial Day Weekend with the F1, Indy 500, Coca-Cola
2008-05-23 02:50:00
As the NASCAR All-Star Race is in the record book with fan voted in Kasey Kahne winning last weekend, now Motorsports fans will set their sights on this marathon of Motorsports weekend, but wouldn’t you it, before going into this spectacular weekend, Speedway Motorsports made two announcements that for one reason or another shocked me.First, yesterday it was SMI announcing that one of the best promoters, H.A. "Humpy" Wheeler, who is COO and president of Speedway Motorsports and Lowe's Motor Speedway, is retiring from both positions following the Coca-Cola 600. Retire, interesting statement, after hearing some of the comments, it more like forced out. I don’t think Wheeler really wanted to retire right now and he said so, but nevertheless, why now? Humpy Wheeler is one of the best promoters in the sport, he made the All-Star Race successful including putting it under the lights which had never been done before. Wheeler puts in amazing shows including pre-shows and knows how to d...

Video of E85 Corvette Z06, 2008 Indy 500 pace car
2007-12-30 04:14:00
Who said muscle cars can't be green? The video above is all about the 2008 Indy 500 pace car, an E85-fueled Corvette Z06. Chevy does not make an E85 Corvette but this concept may hint at future plans from Chevy's gas friendly to gas free strategy. The video includes the pace car driver, two-time Indy 500 winner, Emerson Fittipaldi, joking it will be great to look in the mirror and see all those Indy cars behind him. The Z06 is capable of changing colors from green, blue, gold and yellow and you can check it out in the 2008 Indy 500 which airs Sunday, May 25, 2008.Related: Honda Accord Hybrid to pace Indy series for 2007 President Bush a fan of using ethanol in Indy races Switch to ethanol not a problem for Indy Racing League Ethanol Motor Day at the Indy 500.
