No idea what he's doing now.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Yes, it's relevant. Some have searched for this song, which is what ABC used to use for the starting grid introduction for the Indy 500 back in the 90s.

Bourdais is a good driver but he is terrible at fan interaction. My brother and i both waved and yelled go seabass at him in sebring in 2010 and he completely blew us off. No wave or acknowledgement, just nothing. I wont root for him after that.


I met him man, and... he is really shy. He ' a really good guy, but too introverted personnality. and back in 2010, he needed to regain confidence on him, and i think with this wonderfull 2011 season, the job is done.

If i must describe the Seb personnality in a few words, he's a normal person in a not-so-normal universe. I mean, everyone on us must be crazy with this job, isn't it? You need to be a bit egocentric, and Seabass is not really the kind of.

He has good days and bads days, and on his good days (i meet him at Superleague at Monza 2009), he's really cool. But with pressure, he needed some mental. You and your brother are just unlucky, Eddyjay :)

For me, this will always be the ABC Indy 500 theme (even though it's also the theme to a Chuck Norris movie, funny that.)

I met him when he was testing the Torro Rosso in tests Spa 2007, when he was really the star of the paddock. Nice guy, took time for everybody who wanted. I suppose he was used to the US crowd who is allowed much closer to the drivers.

Kaczmarek said they played this over the PA speakers a few times this morning at the track.

Robin Miller said on wind tunnel tonight that the Austin gp circuit and Houston (streets presumably) are being considered for next year. Houston has been a known rumour for some time although I haven't heard of Austin being mentioned anywhere so far.

Would love to see Indycars on more "European style" tracks, was awesome watching them on Motegi last year

Apparently the Houston race is a done deal. Just read that they have a promoter and this week they may do the official announcement.

This is the song that I remember, not the one that Mr. Adgie posted previous. This theme always got me excited for the 500.

That didn't go out as smoothly as planned. 1992 Indy was one of the most chaotic races on the brickyard.
