      To be fair to Nascar, they didn't throw the caution in the 600 either. They certainly could have the last few laps, a wall thump and a car weaving with a flat tire. Martin was the deserving winner and while it was not exciting at the end, I was sure glad it was handled the right way. Same for the youngster who won Indy. I do not remember ever seeing someone win the 500 that was such a surprise winner.

        It reminded me of the old days in Nascar when they raced at Daytona and Talledega and would use the draft to get by guys.

        In 2010 and 2011 Telledega had 88 lead changes and that was at the line not counting the lead changes during the lap.

          You know what I did find interesting was the drivers could come in for gas but, could not change tires. I can't remember what they call it. something so, the drivers dont run out of gas. I think that was on a caution with pit lane was not open.

            I find it interesting that Kyle Larson was well on his way to his first win and the yellow flag was thrown for a water bottle laying up in the marbles for a hundred miles or so of the race.

              Yeah that sucks. That's NASCAR for you. They need to quit worrying about catering to the fans and let the race end as it's going to end.

                  Yep just like the coca cola 600 in Charlotte. NASCAR could have thrown a caution but, didn't. They let the race play out.

                        It really was a great time, for sure. The last 4 Indy 500's have been so good, the bar has been set so high, that sometime in the future when the excitement level is only average we'll probably feel somewhat let down.
