Indy 500, 2002, Tracy vs Helio, final laps

[SlamDuncDrummer]

Why would you put music under this? Crazy.

[MageofDarkness1984]

Who were involved in crash at 07:55?

[kflfv3]

@MageofDarkness1984 Laurent Redon (#34 Mi-Jack/Conquest Racing) and Buddy Lazier (#91 Hemelgan Racing).

..today Dario would be punished for "blocking" for some of his moves…

[skanadian]

Absolutely criminal. Great Indy 500 win, PT.

[kukkelf1]

Hélio definitely won this race, but damn what a great racer Paul Tracy is! Actually Tracy deserved this one, because if Redon and Lazier didn't crash then of course Hélio wouldn't have won this one. Still hope Tracy will ever win it.

@bellcord You are clearly a poser. The pass was on the total other end of the speedway. Plus you didn't even take the time to watch the video to see what happened to support your lie. Congratulations, you have been nominated for "Dumbest Poser of the Year"

[AlexMacIsKING]

@Degozaru1987 That is exactly what I was thinking watching it, Helio sputtered and couldn't maintain race pace, he shouldn't have even got podium. Paul Tracey no doubt won the race, Giaffone gets second, Sam Hornish gets third, then comes Helio. Even without the sputter Paul Tracey clearly passed him.

[Degozaru1987]

The biggest problem i have with this is that it is obvious that helio was extremly low on fuel and slow down so much on the yellow that he was holding up the field.

(Also tracy passed him, but that is what you get with bad rules.)

[senorsoupe]

Helio only won this race due to politics, Paul Tracy the REAL winner of the 2002 Indianapolis 500.

[chad4190]

bellcord the pass happend in turn 4, right in front of me, WATCH THE VIDEO!

[chad4190]

i was there paul tracy won this race, i was setting in the short shoot right before turn 4, PT won!!!!

[Flori207]

I hope that PT will come back to the Speedway in 2011 to take his second 500 win

[Tgunn0838]

I loved how nobody mentions that Franchitti cost Felipe Giafionne the race, but always seems to say that Tracy was screwed but it was ok for his teammate to run blocker.

[xcruzrr6]

@Tgunn0838 i thought i was the only one

[Tgunn0838]

I think this is the race that Tomas Scheckter absolutely dominated until he smacked the turn 4 wall with like 30 to go.

[bellcord]

We were midway at Turn 1 and saw Tracy make the pass coming out of Turn 2 just as the yellow came out..

[openwheelmanic]

PT won according to the IRLs own live timing and scoring..i saw it with my own eyes ...hope he has better luck (better than last year) at TO this weekend.

[tj0099]

Tracy won....simple...W A T C H.....

[lalalalalalabitch]

the music is annoying as hell

[cmderinchief]

The last few laps of this race was amazing in the stands. I was sitting in 4 when Tracy made that MAD pass on Giaffone. Crowd went nuts.

[MyThoughtsSoSublime]

Think of it as going through Suzuka's 130R 800 times.

[chaptainchaos]

4 high speed corners and no hills. Yawn

[CGFootball5307]

@chaptainchaos then don't watch

[markko17]

Shades of 1981, i.e., if they can figure out a way to give the win to Roger, they will!!

[xobrentox]

Tracy should have won this. Great on track battle, phenomenal race, but dammit, Tracy should have won.

[EBrokovitch]

No children in this race?

[MotorsportLegends]

Thanks for posting this one. I was at sea during this race and missed it.

[S2KINDYCAR]

i was at this race....sitting in the infield middle of the back strech

[AutoRockinRacing94]

I want to see the ABC version of the finish with no music.

[mccrossen1]

Same here

[DFP1987]

you got it..., the full race is uploaded.

[F1since1996]

2002 was the first time I watched the Indy 500, and since that race I'm addicted to oval races and the IndyCar Series. Just fantastic!

[mccrossen1]

Me too!

[doctormarkon]

Fantastic

[lukeCART1]

cool

[luy90]

The music is kinda pointless.

[F1since1996]

Agreed. But what a race =)

[cevert4ever]

Incredible!
