Last year, Danica Patrick returned to the historic track for one last ride before calling it a career. Now, the famed driver will be up in the booth alongside Mike Tirico and Dale Earnhardt Jr. as part of NBC's coverage. :D

Some nice driving the last 3 or 4 laps, that's for sure.

Penske runs Chevys in Indy, and
Fords in Nascar.

a 30 second moment of silence honoring our fallen service men and women at the mid point of the race where even the race cars go silent was impressive .... when it comes to honoring our soldiers, NASCAR is in a class by itself

Bounced it off the wall early, then recovered nicely.
Congrats to him.

Also a second time that Penske has won the Indy 500 and come in second in the 600.

Once Truex hit the wall early on, I said "well, it looks like he won't be winning today".

What a recovery. Truex on now on a mission. Winning 3 of the last 5.

Pretty good adjustment for just switching teams.

I once saw one of those Ford trucks at a drag strip go down the track on two wheels. It was designed to run backwards. Made the wheel-stand the whole way too.
