I like Mike Tirico so far. Danica Patrick shouldn’t be there. Kind of funny watching Dale Jr. I think of NASCAR when I see him.
Hopefully the Andretti curse can be broken, but it won’t. It would be nice to have it finally broken.
I see You found it, was just gonna Ping You.
Tirico is good...listen to the race on Indy car radio...their coverage is fantastic...
Danica is just eye-candy.
She could drive fast but never was a real racer.
Why shouldn’t Danica Patrick be there? I haven’t watched in years and really don’t know.
I went to a private girl’s school in Indianapolis about 100 years ago, met Toni (Antoinette) Hulman, 500 owner’s daughter, who had recently graduated from our school. When her dad died, she inherited the track and the business, ran it very well for decades.
I’ve been to the track a few times, saw time trials, and met a few drivers, notably Jim Clark AND Colin Chapman who owned and designed Lotus Cars. Even owned a Lotus Elan. And ended up managing the Lotus distributorship in the Midwest. Really fun days...and for my little kids too, who got to go to time trials.
So if Danica isn’t a good-enough driver anymore, OK, but if it’s because she’s a woman, I seriously object.
Veto!
