Dario did it yet again, Sato had a bloody good punt though.

It was good racing apart from the prolonged safety car periods & the interminable 'messages frm our sponsors' (adverts to you & me) that seem to blight US racing broadcast!

Sato should have won the race - had he left his overtake until the final corner he would have drafted passed Dario on the run in to the flag. His attempt to get passed was typical Sato.

Big balls & a big effort. Had he made the overtake stick he would have been feted as a genius. Sadly he didn't leaving Dario to win.

Somehow it was just right for Dario to take the win after loosing Dan Wheldon last year. I don't think anyne would begrudge him the victory.

Just a pity that most people in the UK will not have heard of him & even fewer will know what the Indy 500 is all about.

Three Indy 500 wins is in outstanding achievement.

Not as much as the huge photo of Dario celebrating behind Keith Heuwen at the start of the Sky highlights show.

I have Sky but I don't have PH. We're like some weird, co-joined matter/anti matter twins!
