Everyone else gets an official thread, so I want one too.

I've seen several people make mentions of F1 on here. So, I'm giving us a thread. No more Speed bs coverage. NBC looks like they are taking it serious and will have some good coverage.

With DVRs now, it's no longer a pain in the ass to watch the races. So watch them and discuss

And if you don't watch F1. You suck. Best racing on the planet.

The on-board replay was difficult to watch when Dixon's car went airborne on impact. Thankfully, he stepped out of what little was left of his car unaided.

It was a ferocious impact - Remarkably, the drivers survived a spine chilling moment.

As for Alonso, he performed brilliantly. It was amazing how quickly he learned the finer points of racing on an oval track. It was a shame - He was going strong battling with one of the fastest average lap times in P6, with twenty laps to go and Honda's engine fails. How ironic - McLaren-Honda's power units in F1 have been a complete failure.

It was an exciting race.The battle between Sato and Castroneves went right to the wire - Nice to see Sato win a historic race.

What a great race to watch live.

Caution, Caution is out - Harvick hits the wall - Takes out Al Bundy's favorite driver, Kasey Kahne got to go...

Best,

D.

Alonso will 'definitely' return to the Indy 500 in the future
By Edd Straw
@eddstrawF1


the last two weeks. I came here to prove myself, to challenge myself," said Alonso.

"I know that I can be as quick as anyone in an F1 car, I didn't know if I can be as quick as anyone in an IndyCar.

"It was nice to have this competitive feeling, leading the Indy 500."

Great article. Thanks

The top speed of IndyCars vs. F1 cars is amazing:

Alonso had the fastest avg lap speed today.

He lost time in the pits, but that's expected since F1 doesn't have fuel stops.

Sportswriter is ‘no longer an employee’ of Denver Post after ‘disrespectful’ Indy 500 tweet

Denver Post publisher Mac Tully and editor Lee Ann Colacioppo issued a statement on Monday that sportswriter Terry Frei is no longer an employee of the newspaper one day after he tweeted that he was “very uncomfortable” with Japanese driver Takuma Sato winning the Indianapolis 500 during Memorial Day weekend.

“Nothing specifically personal, but I am very uncomfortable with a Japanese driver winning the Indianapolis 500 during Memorial Day weekend,” wrote Terry Frei, of the Denver Post.

A hail-mary apology couldn’t save former ESPN and, now, former Denver Post columnist Terry Frei after the seven-time state sportswriter of the year tweeted his disapproval of Japanese driver Takuma Sato winning yesterday’s Indy 500.

Frei’s apology, which originally featured a plug for one of his books before he revised that, again, was a clear attempt at damage control aimed at satisfying his employer; clearly, it didn’t work, as KUSA says the Post fired him today:

“We apologize for the disrespectful and unacceptable tweet that was sent by one of our reporters,” the statement reads. “Terry Frei is no longer an employee of The Denver Post. It’s our policy not to comment further on personnel issues. The tweet doesn’t represent what we believe nor what we stand for. We hope you will accept our profound apologies.”

Frei said in the apology the source of his anti-Japan angst was rooted in his father having fought in World War II. He then thanked someone who defended his original tweet.

Professional journalists inform - Tweets have to be retweetable. If journalists did not learn by now that social media stupidity leads to firings, they deserve to be on the street.

I cannot believe Frei's original apology included a plug for one of his books - What an moron - All the way around.

I don't quite follow his sentiment but why fire him? Can't journalists have a controversial opinion or must we all follow the same exact approved thoughts?


Btw my family was at Pearl Harbor and there were tons of Japanese tourists taking photos. Rubbed my parents the wrong way (my grandpa served in the Pacific during WWII). Is that wrong too? Maybe. But maybe not

I noticed that when I was 16.

I think many people share a similar reaction. It's not disgust or hatred, just a bit of uncomfortable cognitive dissonance. Disquieting may be the best word for it.

It really is a bizarre thing to witness.

Holy cow. Is anyone else watching?

Huge crash, huge fire. Driver is lucky to be alive. He was in the fire for a long time.

I’ll post the vid once I can get back to a PC.
