Helio's 4th pole.
Impressive. Roger's 16th pole. Incredible. And now Helio has a chance to join a very elite group, with Foyt, Al Unser, and Mears. But that's still 500 miles away. Others have had the same chance... Long before he was "Spiderman" - when he started out with Bettenhausen and then Hogan - I knew this kid was good. But I had no idea of what was to come. Looking forward to raceday... |

Marcus, thanks for the great spotter's guide!
And credit to you for working faster than Herta's crew....you already have the #29 car back in one piece. |

Hard to look past Helio in the race. If he's trouble-free I don't think anyone can beat him, even his teammates.
The start's going to be a lot of fun for me sitting at Turn 3 with Kanaan, Meira, Scheckter, and Danica in the back of the field and watching them come up. (please no early accident either) |

If I'm Sebastian Saavedra, I slot in behind Tony Kanaan at the green flag and hang on for the ride of my life.

Enjoy, Marcus! Could be a great day for one of your locals. I'd never bet against either of them.

The IndyCar live feed quality is shockingly bad - when it decides to work that is.
Expect to miss a few hundred miles as a result! |

2nd caution already.
That Kanaan start was insane, real ballsy stuff for the first lap as he made everyone else look static. |
