Article on Dario Franchitti and Indy 500
Is this part true?
Emerson Fittipaldi teed off the locals when he drank orange juice instead of the traditional milk after winning in 1989. Juan Pablo Montoya apparently didn’t have the right attitude after he breezed to victory in 2000. Even two-time winner Helio Castroneves gets the you-don’t-understand-our-race vibe on occasion. According to the anti-foreigners, it’s not a real Indy 500 unless an American wins it. Apparently the White House agrees with that sentiment, because it only invites American winners of the race to meet the president. Strange, indeed. Apparently that rule doesn’t apply to World Series or NBA champions. http://www.speedtv.com/commentary/37722/ |
