Spotlight: One Happy Race Team

View this photo at Flickr

There’s been a lot of conjecture in the past week or so about the possibility of an open wheel merger or at least the possibility of one or more race teams moving to the IndyCar Series. I typically like to keep my distance from all of the hullabaloo when it comes around each year. But look at the race team in the photo above. Man, they look happy, don’t they? As evidenced by the flower wreath, the bottle of Canadian Club, and the rain (not to mention the big smiles), that team just won the Indianapolis 500. And isn’t that what it’s really all about?
