Yet another favourite Alex Zanardi memory here - stuffing it down the inside of Andretti at the hairpin with a couple of laps to go for the win.
Totally awesome move! |

Pagenaud lost his wing which was picked up by Tracy , he couldnt turn clouted the wall and everyone jumped on the breaks and Gommendy drove over the top of Heylen and Figge , Legge drove into the wall , Rahal also spun and knocked his front wing off

100th DNF. That is an amazing stat really.
Not his fault though. In fact, hideously unlucky. Blimey, who's left? |
