Nice thumbnail of Teo Fabi from this segment of the 1988 Indy 500 qualifications.
Look at how many people used to attend qualifications! It makes me sad to see what has happened to our beloved sport and to know that these years, the late 80's and very early 90's, were some of the best years for the Indy 500, never to be repeated.
Greed has taken its toll.
You can tell this broadcast was "semi-live." If you follow the official Daily Trackside Report, the order in which they're shown on TV is slightly off from real time. They cherry-picked some runs to show live, and went back and showed taped runs of the significant drivers...and certainly didn't show all of them.
