 Which rookie will cause a wreck today?
Everyone should take note of this year's rookie field. Today's practice will enter-twine veterans with 1st timers and vacationers that saw fit to go with that other league. Look for a long, and accident plagued 92nd running.  

Will Power looks as good, crazy, ballsy, wreckless, and fit-to-win like the young Rick Mears and Marco, if he doesn't put-'er-in-the-wall, or exhaust his team's resources.

 re: Which rookie will cause a wreck today?
I'm sorry, but Rick Mears and Marco Andretti do not mix. Rick was never reckless. Always saved equipment. He saw the big picture. The Andretti's were always way too aggressive and hard on equipment. They never learn. Look at Mario's Indy 500 record. 1 win. How many laps did he lead? How many times did he abuse the car and it failed on him? Michael? Same thing. Most laps led for a non-winner. The phrase "Andretti is slowing on the backstretch.." is famous for a reason. It wasn't bad luck, it was car abuse. And now, in keeping with the long standing Andretti tradition at Indy, Marco sticks his nose in between a car and the wall on lap ONE and he's out of the race. Will they ever ever ever ever EVER learn?? Heavy feet, light brains.
