"It's Yankee Stadium, isn't it," Letterman said of the track. "It's one of those buildings that's been here. And if you think about it, it probably shouldn't have been here. It probably got a lot of breaks. During [World War II], it lay fallow and it was covered with weeds. Against pretty long odds, the place has not only withstood the test of time, but flourished, actually. [The 500] is more than a sporting event. But, boy, when it goes right, it's a hell of a sporting event."
Letterman linked up with former Indy 500 champion Bobby Rahal in the Nineties to form their IndyCar team; the two became friends after Letterman interviewed the driver in 1986.
Given the timing of the race just days after he said goodbye to late night with Letterman remarked that it would "delightful and silly at the same time" if his #32 car won the Indianapolis 500. Unfortunately, the victory went to Juan Pablo Montoya. (Servia finished 29th out of 33 drivers, completing only 112 of the race's 200 laps.)相关的主题文章:
