I thought Alonso was absolutely sensational. But for the engine failure, and possibly being caught out at the last restart, he had every chance of winning.
I think he's one of the all time great's, possibly the only modern day driver who could actually win the Triple Crown.
I also have to say that's the first time I've ever watched the entire Indy 500....and I'll be watching it every year from now on......stunning atmosphere,brilliant racing, ridiculous speeds! New found respect for ALL the Indy Car drivers too.....they're either genuine hero's or totally mental !
Well done to Sato too, he drove a really gutsy race.
