Alonso Missing Monaco to do Indy 500

[ONtheROCS]

I'm not doubting the strength of the survival cell and the chassis but that was one major smash and he was extremely lucky there. A few inches either way and that could have been an entirely different outcome. Brave stuff.

C'mon Fred!

And people were oohing and aahing about the sauber tipping over in Monaco!!!

No matter how much they keep adding to the car bodywork, these things still take off. Glad to see everyone looks ok. These sort of crashes can have bad consequences.

Did that happen in the race today?

Can you keep the Monaco stuff out of this thread? Not seen that race yet. Thanks.

I know it's not but it does look easy to pass

Compared to Alonso's day job it probably is easy.

This is way better than Monaco earlier.

Visorcam, refuelling pit stops, massive crashes. I'm in.

Might be easier to have it all in one thread?

Even my dad is watching it, and he hasn't seen an Indy race since Mansell in '93

There is a NASCAR race later today too...

The white barrier the car fell on didn't give much did it? Not a dent on it.

There's an awful lot of ads. But just look at the price of a CHevy crew-cab truck!

Someone was extremely close to being wiped out by an engine and gearbox assembly!

American car ads are far better than ours.

I'm enjoying the ads, it adds to the whole experience.
