Yup, Sato done well, but so did Fernando. Luckiest guy has to be Scott Dixon, what an horrendous crash.

An aircraft landing is just a controlled crash.

I was amazed to see Dixon walk away from the incident. A great testament to the design of the Dallara car and the SAFER barrier that he hit.

Helio Castroneves was very lucky, too. In the video clip, you can see him driving right under Dixon's airborne car.

Congratulations to Sato. He ran a very good race. His crew dropped a wheel nut on one stop & cost him about 15 places. He fought back up to the lead. He was dueling with Castroneves right to the flag.

Between Sato's excellent victory, Fernando's great showing and Chilton's quietly competitive race to 4th, F1 showed itself rather well today. (Except for Hamilton, who decided to diss Indy in a silly manner).
