Was that a broken Lotus?
Wasn't HVM or Dreyer & Reinbold was it? They're low budget teams that only run one car each.
Tagliani, didn't even finish the first lap.
Heh, BHA's the same team that Wheldon won last year's Indy 500 with. What was the problem, engine?
In the interview he said it blew up.
Suspect it more of the same electrical failures/shutoffs instead due to the dire shortage of Lotus-Judd engines.
If only Lotus paid their bill on time... er... allegedly...
Well, from what I recall Judd engines were always terrible. At least in 1990s F1 anyway.
They weren't bad, but not great.
They had their moments, but they weren't too glorious either.
Where they have proven successful is in GT racing.

Yes well done Rubens good result for him.
Good race this week, plenty of action and the cars seem to work ok racing up behind one another.

Marshall Pruett's review of the race:

Top ten in the championship standings:
Castroneves 86
Dixon 84
Power 77
Hinchcliffe 60
Pagenaud 58
Hunter-Reay 53
Rahal 50
Briscoe 46
Conway 38
Barrichello 37
If Bourdais keeps up his performance, Penske should be looking at him to replace Briscoe. You'd think Ryan was driving a completely different car to Will Power judging by the Barber race.

It's still early days but Bourdais does look to be doing a good job considering the Lotus' havn't looked very strong.
