Cameraman Gets 'Brake Checked' at Gateway!

Did anyone catch the wild moment during the Bommarito 500? Devlin DeFrancesco, after spinning out, pulled a surprise 'brake check' on a Fox Sports cameraman hustling behind him in the pits—sending the poor guy tumbling live on air! Luckily, both are okay, but social media can’t stop laughing at this instant classic. Meanwhile, Pato O’Ward is closing in on Palou in the points race. Only in INDYCAR, folks! #IndyCar #Bommarito500 #DeFrancesco #Sports #Racing

McLaughlin Feels the Heat—Literally!

Did anyone else catch the wild start at Illinois? Team Penske’s Scott McLaughlin (aka "Scotty Mac") wasn’t just battling rivals—he was dodging a wall of heat from those insane pre-race pyros! Fans across the track felt it, but inside the cockpit? Scotty said it was "intense" through the helmet. Add in Newgarden’s scary flip after tangling with Foster, and this was one for the books. Tough luck for McLaughlin with another DNF, but he’s keeping his head up. Thoughts on the pyros—too much, or just right for the drama? #IndyCar #ScottMcLaughlin #TeamPenske #Sports #Racing

Palou’s Indy 500 Win Shatters Records!

Did you all catch the 109th Indy 500? El Matador, Alex Palou, just made history—becoming the first Spanish driver to win the big one! He pulled off a gutsy late pass on Ericsson and held off O’Ward and Malukas in a wild finish. Plus, FOX’s broadcast hit a 17-year high with over 7 million tuning in. Between Palou’s dominance and the massive viewership, IndyCar’s future looks brighter than ever! #Indy500 #AlexPalou #IndyCar #Sports

Penske Shake-Up: Cindric Out Before Indy 500

Wow, Team Penske fans—what a bombshell right before the Indy 500! After back-to-back controversies, including that push-to-pass scandal and the latest qualifying penalties, Tim Cindric (Roger’s right-hand man since '99) is out, along with key strategists. With Newgarden and Power starting from the back and $100k fines on the table, the Captain himself had to apologize. Do you think the team can bounce back and make Roger proud this weekend, or is this the start of a new era? #Indy500 #TeamPenske #Motorsport #RacingDrama #IndyCar #Sports
