I would like to see Danica win. If she did, it would be a major boost to open wheel racing.

I have a feeling Helio is going to hard to beat. Hornish hasn't finished many of any Indy 500's.

Me too. Coming in 4th last year wasn't too shabby! :) But, yeah, I'd like for her to win. Looks like a great day for racing.
