I'm curious how Rinus will do from the third starting place, front row.

I think I read 4pm UK start time. 11am local time. Can't wait, I always enjoy the 500. I'm routing for Montoya in the Mclaren, mainly as he has chosen to have CHocolate Milk if he wins :lol:

I like how for the fast-9 it's all typed out "dallara-honda" or "dallara-chevy"
and then it was realized that they're all dallara, and they stopped bothering.

Anyway, yes, I shall watch.

I’ll be watching, even if its only to ensure I get my money‘s worth out of my sky F1 subscription 😂

The race buildup starts at 3:45 pm on sky F1, live from MTC Woking, with guest star Lando Norris (Another great reason to watch!)

But seriously... I’m really looking forward to some racing on a Sunday, especially after the parade we had at Monaco.

I was hoping Montoya would show the young guns how’s it done again, but he didn’t qualify great, still if there’s 1 thing the indie 500 promises it’s overtakes, so I guess anything could happen

The other great thing is this race comes across amazing on tv, ‘fixed’ camera angles and angry loud engines prove an awesome combination, and with cars going 4 or 5 a breast into corners there’s always plenty of spices action too

Will be interesting to see if Rossi and Dixon can move through the field in an attempt to get their lap back.

Has Rinus actually changed his surname to Veekay? Surely just VK is fine?
