Carpenter slid up wide and there was plenty of space on the inside for Hinchcliffe to dive underneath him.

Also, the actual wreck happened because Townsend Bell didn't realize they were three wide.

Another great race, and this year we were fortunate enough to watch them race all the way to the finish, and Hunter-Reay and Castroneves made a show out of it, too! Personally wish Tags could have had a better run; I don't even remember hearing his name mentioned once after the start.

It's awesome to see Busch do so well, too! Neat that he was the worst-finishing of the four Andretti cars that made the distance... in 6th!

Well, I'm still a bit bitter from Carpenter being taken out in that unfortunate incident, but that was some of the best racing I've witnessed in person at IMS. Great to see another worthy champion in Ryan Hunter-Reay for the Indianapolis. He and Helio were driving like maniacs those last few laps. That was an excellent call by Indycar to red flag the race.
