If this was a horse race the winner would have been disqualified for getting out of his lane!

Rossi played his hand a lap too soon. Helluva race though!

Excellent rules package, race, & deserving winner. Career saver month for Pagenaud. Rossi WILL win another one (thankfully the American seems happy to be here and maybe gave up on his F-1 aspirations).

Lot of good stories thru the field. Another good 500 for Sato...Kanaan 9th in Foyt car...Conor Daly 10th...Pippa Mann CMR car 16th

Do gota say Special Ed's solid day & nice 6th place finish didn't seem to get much attention on either NBC or Indycar radio (the parts I sampled of both). For a part-time driver and not one of the biggest teams, think they coulda talked him up more

Simon drove a way smarter race.

In between the many commercials was some good racing.

Two drivers that raced midgets finished in the top 10.

I will be honest I didn’t want a non American esp in a penski car to win but well deserved and a very good run by Simon. Will Ed ever have his day? I think his day will come

If Penske is done with Helio, Ed has shown he deserves a shot in one of the Captain's cars there. He can take the offer Tony never did...lol

The only problem I had with Danica this month was her wardrobe last week. She did fine. Anyone who thinks differently apparently has a deeper problem with her. Remember she has won an Indy Car race and done very well at the speedway. Let it go

Very unbaised comment since the subject is dating a Packer and you're a Viking fan!

maybe I missed it, I'm getting old and don't pickup on things like I used to, but after watching the race and continued coverage on NBC Sports, I was disappointed that there was no finish run down.

Overall I think NBC did a good job and it was one of the better races in years.

Good race
Wasn't crazy about NBC's coverage... lot of commercials and did they have pit reporters? If they did, they didn't go to them much.
