2012 made him quite endearing but quite frankly he’s been a massive turd both in and out of the car ever since. I give it four races at Renault before the toys start going out of the pram because “the car” isn’t good enough.

His performance in 500 qualifying today was also a dud.

If Alonso wants to win the 500 he needs to do a full season of Indy not piss around as a backmarker in F1.

Need a fuel performance graphic.

Wowza look at those numbers! The cars that didn't make it into Q2 had incredible fuel savings compared to the rest of the field during the rest of qualifying.

It might just be because he's replaced Di Resta and a potted plant would be a more informative and exciting addition to the booth than him, but I haven't minded the commentary he's done. And his technical analysis of the circuit on youtube was actually interesting, instead of the horseshit "rich person lifestyle" videos he was mostly putting out beforehand.

The triple crown looks like a waste of time to me, this indy 500 business. Like Usain bolt farting about trying to win the Chichester egg and spoon race because a hundred years ago Tarquin Cholmondley-warner did it and it apparently mattered.

On the one hand you shouldn’t really be able to walk in to another race series and immediately do well, but on the other Max Chilton seems to be doing well, or at least well enough to keep his drive year after year so...

in 1966 the money from winning the 500 was more than a winning driver got all season in F1, now it's like 1/10th or 1/20th

anyway

Folks, this is what WDC consistency and skill looks like

i guess the technical differences between formulae were much fewer then and easier to overcome too.

The only reason Are Graham considered the 500 for the Triple Crown was because it had the biggest payout back then. Since the winner nowadays gets ~$1.25M after the team gets their cut, I don't even think Slick Nick, Are George, or Joey Nazi would care to skip Monaco and run it for the money. So yeah, given as well that money was reason the Triple Crown featured the 500 in the first place and the amount doesn't really matter that much anymore, the race really doesn't either.

Basically, stating what we all know. Alonso is doing American oval racing to try and stay relevant.
