Indy even made it into the local paper today. Well, Pippa did anyway.
Not sure I quite agree with everything written!

She finished, but she didn't really do anything impressive during the race. |

Agreed. She had problems with her drinks bottle, so she did really well to finish. Don't think her pace was special enough to interest other teams. |

There has always been a heavy price to pay for mistakes at Indy. Wheldon prevailed in the finest style of Rick Mears... Put yourself in a position to win, the rest is up to God. He did just that and was able to take advantage when Indy jumped up and bit JR in the ass. Good on Dan, he's a helluva driver at Indy. Can't agree more with this. Fraze "Spirit of Indy" also has a double meaning. The more you've seen the 500's, the more you believe in this kind of things. It doesn't apply to this case though. He had his destiny in his own hands and only his actions on the steering wheel and throttle pedal would have made the difference between win and fail. Many drivers did not have that chance... |

Salazar just replied to my tweet saying that the die-cast winner is between me and another person and he'll see it on Monday after the rally he's racing in, so I'll appreciate any help on guessing the guys at the picture link I posted on the last page. |

A die cast of some indycar from Salazar's. I don't know if a CART or IRL one. And a book, apparently. |

Yeah, this is getting a bit off the race topic (plus it's been over for three weeks now), so requesting a lock and possible HoF. |
