OK, someone has to say it. This is more interesting to watch than the race itself.

Holy bejeebers.

Wonder if this is true?
if you’re bored since Imola is cancelled, NBC & other worldwide affiliates are broadcasting 60 hours of Indy 500 coverage over the next 2 weeks, including qualifying this weekend. So why not give indycar a try? find out where to watch in your country here:

So what I'm hearing you say is that I shouldn't bother posting an Emilia Romagna Chat Thread???

All seriousness aside...best thoughts for those involved :(

Good for them. It will help the disaster relief effort and somewhat make up for the lost revenue.:thumbup:
