Está sem ter o que fazer nas próximas quatro horas e quinze minutos?

Assim, quem sabe, desta vez, Fernando Alonso chega à vitória...

Assista ao final das 500 Milhas de Indianápolis 2017 com a narração da TV japonesa


A centésima-primeira edição das 500 Milhas de Indianápolis teve ingredientes típicos da prova mais famosa do automobilismo mundial: acidentes espetaculares, anti-clímaxes e a vitória de um piloto que não costuma fazer frente durante sua carreira.

Este ano, quem bebeu leite na victory lane e beijou os tijolos foi Takuma Sato, que fez uma corrida estratégica, teve sua dose de sorte e soube segurar a pressão de Hélio Castroneves nas voltas finais.

Agora, empolgante mesmo foi a alegria do narrador e dos comentaristas da emissora japonesa Gaora Sports. A felicidade deles é contagiante, e não há como não ser contraído por ela.

É uma pena que poucos assistiram a isto na terra nipônica, já que a corrida aconteceu, pelo horário local, na madrugada de domingo para segunda.

Durante os treinos para a Indianapolis 500, a piloto Simona de Silvestro teve que sair às pressas do carro número 29 da Andretti Autosport, após o motor pegar fogo.

Ninguém se feriu gravemente no acidente. Apenas um fiscal de pista, que, apesar de seu corpanzil, foi derrubado pela piloto, e teve uma contusão na... bunda!
