If Sato wins, it will be unbelievable. America won't even know what to do when he's drinking the milk.

DO IT

This is nail biting stuff. Carpenter and Andretti have both stuffed it in the chase for the lead which seems to be between,

Kanaan (leader after best restart ever!) Franchitti, Dixon, Briscoe, WIlson, Hinchcliffe and Sato. The record for lead changes has already been smashed 0.0

The Andretti curse strikes again!

Come on Takuma!

Those last 30 laps were a million times better then the Monaco race.

Sato pulled alongside Franchitti for the lead on the final lap, was pushed on to the white line and spun off and crashed.

When I say pushed it was perfectly fair and Sato can only blame himself.

Cynon · Post by **Cynon** » 27 May 2012, 19:23

As good of a driver as Dario Franchitti is, I felt that was a total cheap shot.

Gosh, that made the Monaco GP look like Valencia... Anyway, I feel like Franchitti could've given a little more room there. But I'm totally biased.

If its any consolation I enjoyed the race via you guys.

Dirty move by Franchitti in my opinion because he could of given Sato more room into 1.

Also, I love the fact that ABC didn't even bother acknowledging that Oriol Servia came from the back to finish 4th :roll:

Pretty standard defensive Indy move leaving less than a car width to pass... It's all Sato's fault for being clumsy and impatient. He got the pace and he could've waited and then slipstreamed and passed at the back straight. Typical Sato, really.

RealRacingRoots · Post by **RealRacingRoots** » 27 May 2012, 20:15

Top 4 in last laps: Franchitti, Dixon, Sato and Kannan.Three of those being Wheldon's best friends. The only one who isn't goes for the win and crashes, leaving Wheldon's three best friends to be on the podium.

And people say wrestling is fixed.

I've been watching Indy since 1994 and I can't recall anyone (that actually had respect for their competitors) leave less than a car width when the other car was already on the inside. Sato had every right to make the move. It's the last lap of the bathplugging Indy 500!! Go for it!!

Well, I don't want to go to such controversial lengths, but I'm only gonna say this for now: F1 didn't open such a barrel after Ayrton Senna died. And one might think that Indy is shilling Wheldon for as much as he's posthumously worth, because don't have anything else they can use for publicity. Over and out.
