Not really Surprised that Larsen WON, am Surprised that Harvick went back to 19th and stayed there almost the whole dang race and even KyB was back in 22nd place, almost same length of time...!!! Supposed to bee Harvick's Last Race...?!?

Watching Monaco F1... a little different this time, with rain on the track, but almost all managed to swap tires . Max Verstappen has a big lead with 20 to go.

Edit: Verstappen wins by 30 sec (or so) over Fernando Alonzo, and then Esteban Ocon. Race was won on the qualifications yesterday,.

Now watching Indy 500, 100 of 200 done. Pole sitter Palou got taken out in the pits. by Veekay when Veekay couldn't keep straight on his put exit.

4 wide at Indy... kind of fun.

Wow, big crash at Indy, driver upside down, and a wheel flew over the fence and missed the crowd, barely. Wheel hit a parked Chevy, and the two drivers involved are ok.

Good they are ok :)
The owner of that chevy has a great story to tell his friends.
He had an accident with a F1 car !

nascar disappoints me.
When they allowed their corporate sponsors to intervene to such an extent as to fire drivers , that almost turned me away and did for awhile.
Nascar is woke, no doubt.
Today I saw something that sickened me. They had a hollywood actor and not even a good one, just some idiot who appears in idiot movies, they had him in a chair alongside the nascar crew taking an interview. They treated him like a King (as the woke do), He is just a duefus actor who means nothing to anyone with some intelligence.

Booo for nascar, yet again !

It probably was a spot for a track employee, because it was a Chevy Cruise, lol. When I saw that tire fly over the fence I held my breath because if it landed in the crowd, it would have been deadly. The upside down driver had the ride of his life, but that open cage was super strong. One of the best innovations to open-car racing.

Coca Cola 600 will be delayed to at least 8pm to dry the track ... no twilight racing...but it will be very late if they do have a complete race. 8pm is way too optimistic.

On the wokeness thing, I just stopped watching the pre-race stuff, Green Flag to the Trophy Raise is all I care about now.

good advice :)

And also just to add.... I own a chevy cruze :)
(two of them now as it turns out)

I saw that it was a Chevy Malibu, not a Cruize. Still way too close to the track to be 'VIP' parking. I got to drive a Chevy Cavalier for a few months 20 yrs ago, which I think was replaced by the Cruze. It was a corporate rental, so I really beat that thing up.

I thought I had heard Larson say something about getting the win here.
It was a comment made just after his ontrack interview at last weekend's allstar race.

Gonna take him on his word (well sorta his word) :)

Kyle Larson for the win !
