@dariofranchitti is making his last stop and the bag pipes begin to play….it all comes down to this.

Okay. I admit my legs are shaking a little. 25 to go. Awesome show by @dariofranchitti @ @scottdixon9 @ @TCGRTeams

What I make up is @dariofranchitti is expiramenting with his passes and tucking behind @scottdixon9 and timing himself for lap 199.

Only thing I know about racing Ashley Judd's husband wins a lot. I think?

Aww. Congratulations to the winner and his proud daddy!

The announcer seems to have a bit of a crush on the wife, not the winner.

Did the track announcer REALLY just say: congratulation to Ashley Judd and her husband Dario? #Indy500

Public address announcer at Indy: "Congratulations to Ashley Judd…and her husband, Dario Franchitti." Sometimes the jokes write themselves

Awkward!
