Not really that much of a surprise on a track such as Indy, good engine power is all that's needed.

I have to agree with that. He has the balls at the least.

He's actually not that little. Who is little, however, is Sato. Jense has at least a head on him, maybe a little less. Takuma is constantly balls to the wall all the time, which is the reason he was off so much in previous races. I think now he is finally harnessing his true potential. Will have to wait till friday for my pics since my digital camera is not with me for a couple days and the film from my other camera is being developed tomorrow.

I always thought Sato was a little better than Button, his engine just kept blowing.

I'm starting to think the reason Sato keeps a sploding his engine is because he's pushing the car a lot harder. It's a shame if it's the car that can't keep up.

We'll see.

Sauber clocked the fastest straight line speed down the main straight , fisichella only clocked the 10th fastest time.

Give toyota some credit.

Yeah I think he is now learning when to push and when to let up a little bit.
