[Northstar]

Cars are rolling!

Full HD visor cams 👍👍

Is Alonso leading yet?

Is Alonso leading yet?

Lost a load of positions by turn 1

Spoiler: Results

Audi #29 wins nordschleife, double win for Ferrari in Monaco.

2/2 today for my personal favorites, lets make it 3/3 and get another 29 to win.

Go Alonso

You should spoiler those results.

Supposedly he is trying Kurt Busch's strategy of dropping back, getting the hang of things, than moving forward.

According to commentators who couldn't possibly be in on the team strategy meetings.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

I don't get it. Why isn't Alonso first yet.

@Northstar I don't think that's a planned strategy. It's a botched rookie start.

I was out of the room when they started talking about it, so I only heard the last bit.

 

[Dotini]

Alonso is in the lead pack and moving up, so doing just fine.

Roger Penske's Chevrolets don't seem to be doing terribly well. Bad sign for them.

 

[Dotini]

Alonso pedals a rare outside pass into Turn 1 for 5th.

 

[IforceV8]

Ganassi cars being trimmed out looks like a bad call.

Alonso was very slow entering the box and lost alot of time.

 

[Scuderia Paul]

This is the first IndyCar event I have ever watched. Where it not for Fernando I would not watch it either.

Same

 

[AudiMan2011]

Alonso to the lead.

 

[Dennisch]

FERNANDO leading the race.

 

[Dotini]

Somehow Alonso is in third after the pitstops. He didn't bother to ask for any changes to his car!

 

[psychoazubi]

Go Fernando!!

I love German tv, no ad breaks

 

[DesertPenguin09]

The first time he's lead a race all year. Probably feels good

 

[Brutaka]

Alonso and Rossi in the lead

 

[Terronium-12]

Already more successful than the MCL32.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Has anyone told Fernando that you don't have to lead from the front at Indy?

 

[Panoz]

We can now say McLaren leads the race in 2017.

 

[Earth]

Love seeing Alonso out front but as an Andretti fan I know this race will rip your heart out

 

[DesertPenguin09]

We can now say McLaren leads the race in 2017.

What part of the car besides Alonso is McLaren?

 

[IforceV8]

If this was the Freedom 100 I would be excited. Its way,way too early to start jumping up an down yet.

 

[Brutaka]

So it's Rossi, Alonso, and Sato in top 3. F1 trying to take over.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Rossi - Alonso - Sato. Just need Montoya and Chilton there and it's all the F1 drivers.

 

[Jimlaad43]

HUUGE accident

Howard and pole-sitter Dixon
