“Helio Castroneves”

Congrats to the winner but I gotta say Helio is a great name for a race car driver.

Ole Helio should have waited to pass RHR until last lap, turn 3. Then RHR would not have time to recover and re-pass before the finish line.

Common mistake made by most but the most cerebral drivers.

Sato made the same type mistake a couple years ago (I think) trying to pass in turn 1 of last lap on Dario and ended up wrecking. Patience is a virtue and damn near non-existent in race drivers.
