Here's a link to Racer's article on Davison subbing for Seabass:
http://www.racer.com/indycar/item/14...is-in-indy-500 The backup car is a "road course car" so it's a tall order for DCR and James. Practice broadcast commentators also mentioned they don't expect the car to qualify today and will start last on the grid. |

I've had the stream on for 10 minutes and haven't seen a car yet. Just adverts, but with commentary audio so I can't hear the adverts. I'm very confused.

The incar for Alonso showing how controlled his hands were was interesting... |

Some said Alonso would struggle with the sheer speed. He appears as calm as you like doesn't he. His qualifying lap was certainly as fearless as any other IndyCar driver.

Not to be morbid, but wonder if his most of his fearlessness could be partially due to the fact that he's yet to have an incident at this track... He's certainly had his fair share of nasty incidents, just not here. Last edited by fieldodreams79; 21 May 2017 at 18:16. |

For Fred to get into the top nine shootout shows two things. One: He has prepared the right way. Two he is one of the best ever in modern day motorsport and would have done well in any era. Let's see if he can win it

That's annoying, IndyCar have stopped streaming. Viewing must be behind the pay wall.

This is a big reason why I stopped watching IndyCar. You have to put effort and research into how to actually see the sport. So is that it for tonight? The IndyCar website actually says it's on RaceControl, but it clearly isn't there.

ESPN 3 is what I am using right now. I know how that goes with others...I would lend out my loginfo, but....
Alonso is having his engine changed for precautionary measures. The race engine is going in and they have an 1:25 to get this done. |

Mr. Pigot had a "wiggle" - I guess a double wiggle but kept it off the wall.
Pippa the quickest of the four that have run thus far. |

Jack Harvey bounced off the wall and still goes to 2nd quick (11th).

That's unlucky. I presume we won't see him on full boost?

Not sure. These guys have been qualifying in 4th of 6 gears so that either strains or doesn't the engine.
I'd lean towards no impact on his qualifying unless someone missed a bolt. I would say he would wear on Alonso's psyche, but track record so far tells me it won't phase him. EDIT And they did make it in time to tech. Last edited by fieldodreams79; 21 May 2017 at 20:27. |

RHR puts down the fastest quali time of the weekend so far with a 231.674.
Track conditions or did they get it right or both? |

Alonso goes to the top of the pylon. 231.330 and he waits the last 6 to go. He's amazing!

Rossi was seriously committed. That was a brave set of laps that.

Rossi knocks Fred off the top spot!
JR looking like he'll be faster than both. |
