@ZaltzCricket speaking of Anderson and ducks: remember that for a long time he held the surprising record of most consecutive test innings without a duck - it took a very long time before he had his first one

@TomGaymor I believe Jack Arute used to call it "feeding time at the zoo"

@TomGaymor #skyindycar Hello Tom, lovely to be hearing your dulcet tones during the NBC breaks again! Any thoughts on the million dollar non-champ event at Thermal this year? Fun? Gimmick? Anything like the old Marlboro Challenge from the 80s and 90s?

@TomGaymor @indycaronNBC @indycar Also I can't stop evangelising about @indycar to any of my friends who've become disillusioned with the monotony of Formula 1.

@TomGaymor @IndyCaronNBC @IndyCar It's in terrific shape right now. The series has such a fascinating history, full of ups and downs, and a really interesting evolution over the last 40-odd years. Would love to see a few more classic ovals on the calendar, though I can understand why they might not be so keen.

@TomGaymor #SkyIndycar Got a genuine question this time... at what point do they go to a timed race?

@Hinchtown so maybe the winning strategy today could be to stay out of the pits and then ride all the yellow flags all the way to victory? I vaguely remember that working for the #5 once before... 🤔😂 (@TomGaymor #skyindycar)

Well this one's turning into a right old Nashville 2020 isn't it 😂 (or, dare I say it, another Louisiana 2015) @TomGaymor #skyindycar

@TomGaymor @IndyCar @SkySportsF1 Just watched Cleveland 1988 - a classic. Would love to see that airport track return to the series 😂

@LydiaCaradonna Hey! That's My Fish! It's the one game I know that I can explain in about 5 mins whilst completely hammered and then have all the players locked in a fierce battle of wills within about 60 seconds of starting. Can be played over and over again in one sitting.

@TomGaymor #skyindycar well that was a fun race! The Rahal/RHR comments at the end from the NBC team reminded me of St Petersburg 2008. Rahal overtook RHR on a restart to take the lead and win his maiden victory. Any guesses as to which team RHR was running for at the time?

@TomGaymor #skyindycar in 1983, in 100F heat in Cleveland, Al Unser was so hot he was calling for a relief driver, then his crew tipped a bin full of water into his cockpit. He went on to win the race. Any chance of today's racers doing the same? 🤣

@TomGaymor Thank you Tom, loving the coverage. Today's race was excellent. Just for context: I became an IndyCar fan during COVID - during the absence of live sport I started following the races from '93 onwards as a stand-in, and this year I finally caught up with the present!
