Dario wins Indy for the 3rd time.

Sato got the most publicity.
 
That finish! Amazing race!
 
First time watching IndyCar full stop.


Sato you numpty.
 
You can hear the crowd roar when he tried to take the lead amazing race!

I can barely type Im shaking so much
 
Oh boy, Franchitti has won the 96th Indy 500. Good race!

Bad luck for Sato though.
 
I don't even know how Dario didn't get collected by Sato.
 
Taku is still the crash!
 
Totally gutted for Sato... Should have waited a bit longer. He had a great race.
 
Great race, two down one to go :)
 
That's the Takuma Sato I know and love. Too bad. I was pulling for him the whole race and everything. He only had to wait about 10 seconds and he would have had him, too.
 
Sato is my new favorite driver lol
 
I'm a big fan of Dario, so happy today.

As for Sato - I can't fault him. He was racing his ass off. White lightning got him.
 
How bad would Sato have looked if he had taken out Franchitti when he spun??

Could have easily happened.
 
How did the tire marks get on the nose of Dario's car?
 
Oh Sato. Oh.. WTF?!?

Really, he should've waited for the move but nothing can be done now. It's gone. Disappointing.

EDIT: At the same time, I can't really fault him for that. He was racing anyway just wrong place at the wrong time. Will he still be classified as 2nd or completely out?
 
I'm happy for Dario, but oh my GOD that was ballsy of Sato!
He's gained a new fan. That was crazy!

It sucks it didn't work out for him.
 
Another great victory for Dario. 👍

But how the hell did he not get wrecked by Sato?
 
Must suck going out for a meal with Sato, not being able to wait........
 
I hate Dario's wife. She seems to ALWAYS be on camera. It's not about you, *****....
 
Poor Sato, I was cheering for him to win, should've hold off till turn 3

:cheers: Props to Dario for the 3 straight wins 👍

He crossed start/finish, so likely the last car on the lead lap, or first car scored a lap down.
 
Two hours until the 600, time for some GT5 👍
 
I just feel gutted for Sato.. :(

Congratulations to Dario. He drove a good race except for the pit lane incident earlier but yeah. Not bad at all winning the 500 for the 3rd time.
 
Indy Car allows driver changes now? Because the #15 car had Yuji Ide take over on the final lap.
