I’ve watched Angelle gently roll her bike forward during the staging, hoping for an extra mph and small jump off the line, then act like a good sportsman afterwards.

Angelle was great reactions and “drives” more than the top fuel drivers, who do not have a throttle or shifting, I’ll give her that. But Danica’s sport is more challenging than Angelle’s. “Indy” racing involves far more than acceleration and reaction. Shall we start with stamina? Cornering? Maneuvering?

The driver doesn’t have their own lane in Indy racing. Oh, how I could go on!

Uh no.

Angelle has won the championship three times, Danica has won one race.

But it’s such a long wait to see who wins.
