Indycar Pocono 500 in Photos

The Pocono Indycar 500 was fantastic!!
 

Drivers, start your engines!
 A great day for racing, upper 70's and sunny. 
Missed having rookie Jack Hawksworth in the field after he bruised his heart
in a vicious 100G crash in practice on Saturday.

Let's go racing!

And the winner is... Juan Pablo Montoya!
What an exciting finish with Josef Newgarden & Tony Kanaan both leading late but having to stop for fuel, and front runner Will Power falling back after getting a penalty for blocking his teammate Helio.
 
The top 6.
Montoya, Castroneves, Carlos Munoz, Ryan Briscoe,
Scott Dixon and Simon Pagenaud
  
Hinch signing autographs....
Why does he always look like he's about to get into trouble?

We ran into Robin Miller!
(We'll have to thank Alex for that, we were
 hanging around the garages to watch Josef)


Cheering Josef on in qualifying
(that didn't go so well when he crashed in turn 2 and had to start last)
 
Your pole sitter and eventual winner
(being interviewed in The Fan Zone before the race)
Carlos Munoz taking a post-race bike ride
after another very successful 500 mile race.

The obligatory 'Josef' photo with Alex
(We honestly don't stalk him. 
We were getting off the van in the paddock and he walked behind it.)
