"If you are Marco Andretti, though, you cannot be disappointed." Bullshit, Scott! HE JUST HAD THE INDY 500 TAKEN AWAY FROM HIM WITHIN 100 YARDS OF THE CHECKERED FLAG! He hasn't done jack at the Speedway, or in his IndyCar career (except win two races) since. This would've been his crowning achievement. So, you weren't disappointed after 1992, '95, or '97? I would be VERY upset to let such a big race slip away with the checkered flag right underneath me.
Fred Noonan *Downforce actually. Marco ran higher downforce obviously because he was a rookie compared to Sam Hornish jr. So it makes sense to lose Marco on the straight away
Choke fest? Howdy doody al(coholic) Unser jr was the most overrated driver in history and lucked into first win due to michaels misfortune. I swear hornish was ridiculous fast in this race (suspicious fast like they were cheating somehow). Mears lucked out a few times against Michael too. So chokefest is a pretty stupid comment when you consider the true misfortune the Andretti’s had at indy.
I forgot he had won the 500. I always rooted for him in Nascar as he always seemed like a chill and mellow guy, but he just never seemed to get the big break needed, but this is cool to go back and see.
+Zack Decker Hornish got incredible drafting along the short straight and the front straight and ended up much faster than Marco on the front straight.
+Zack Decker Marco was a young driver and did not have as good car control as Hornish, so he had a higher downforce setup. Hornish had a lower downforce setup because he could handle it and used that with the slipstream draft coming to the finish to win.
Was there anybody else hoping that some backmarker spun on the restart and hit the wall just hard enough to cause the race to finish under caution so that Michael who had the 1989, 1991, 1992, and 1995 wins get away from him would steal one after all those heartbreaks?
This might possibly had been the most exciting Indy 500 to watch on television with the exception of Rusty Wallace commentating. I'm surprised there wasn't story time during the final front about how he won and ASA race back in 1980 on the last lap or boy how I use to have a hot rod twice as fast.
Notice how quiet the fans were after Hornish won. They cheered for him, but it wasn’t like they were excited to see him win. Marco probably will never have as great of a chance as he did in ‘06 to win the 500.
Como e possivel ter perdido a corrida podia ter salvo a carreira. Tantos anos de indycar e so um simples campeonato no palmares e muito poucco para um piloto com o nome andretti
NRAgunnut1993 He should go back full time. What, a nearly second-tier championship versus three championships? Not a good idea to move. But, I'll support him either way.
Marco: Bye Bye Michael: Get ‘em with the next gear Sam Jr: Aw you little racer Michael: Block ‘em Block ‘em Dan: Oh god the little man is about to kiss the bricks Mario: you got it son you’re destination is ahead Roger: Hey Sam,beat this rookie while making your move,now Sam Jr: Got it Roger Marco: Hey Sam I’m kissing the bricks, I’m going to make it , I’m going to make it Penske Crew: ¡Come on you Sam! Marco’s Parents: Beat ‘em to the finish line Marco! Marco: I’m the champ Sam Jr: ¡Oh No You Don’t! Penske Crew: Get ‘em Sam Jump Ahead Marco: yeeeeees…wait oh no oh no Sam Jr: ¡I Did it! ¡I Beat him! He’s Grounded ¡Woohoo! Marco: oohhh nooooooooooo! Sammy Penske: yeaaaaaaahhh another victory His Crew: ¡HOORAY FOR HORNISH! Andretti’s Crew: aw maaaan! Parents: Ohhhhhh my god our sons lost Sam Jr’s Parents: Oh yeah ¡He did it! ¡Yaaaahoooooo! Sam Jr: Hey Everyone I’m the champ I beat Mario’s sons Fans: ¡HOORAY FOR HORNISH! Helio: Hey Sam, You’re the man
Sam had less downforce on his setup so his car was much faster drafting. Being that Marco was in his first race, they kept his car a bit more planted which scrubs speed. Once Sam got within a few hundred feet of Marco it's like he got an extra 150 hp. Awesome job by Sam!
Best Daytona 500 ever
Jimmie Johnson 48 Champion you don’t get the joke idiot

one of my favorite indy 500 moments ever--ohhhh the memories!!!
Hornish was the very best when he raced. This is still my favorite race win
I been to 13 500’s 2005- present and this is the greatest race I’ve ever seen
Hornish made the right move at the right the right time
I was sitting in turn 1 for this best Indy finish I have witnessed
Another Andretti Chokefest.Nice drive Sam!

@@hbbrewing998 Michael and Marco are more than welcome anytime to come help polish Al's Borg-Warners. Change your tampon and get over it. 😂😂😂
Sam definitely used P2P . No way he ran the fastest lap of the race with 1 to go on used tires. Roger Cheatske strikes again
most exciting DAYTONA 5- i'm sorry, most exciting INDY 500
EPIC FAIL
Penske + Indy 500= Perfeição
I forgot he had won the 500. I always rooted for him in Nascar as he always seemed like a chill and mellow guy, but he just never seemed to get the big break needed, but this is cool to go back and see.
I've been a long-time Penske fan (Mears, Unser, now Helio), but man I wish an Andretti would have won this one.
This is still agonizing to watch
Runescape Asher I am a massive Hornish fan, but even so, I still can't ignore the pain that Marco must have felt.
How do you think he got that speed?

My two favorite drivers this was insane and sadly the last time I wasn't at the 500

😂😂😂
Rusty was awful idk why they ever made him an indycar announcer
GOAT, so happy Hornish won it
I felt for Marco so bad.
Notice how quiet the fans were after Hornish won. They cheered for him, but it wasn’t like they were excited to see him win. Marco probably will never have as great of a chance as he did in ‘06 to win the 500.

I wish Sam had more success in Nascar.
I've always rooted for him and wanted him to win in Nascar too. Seems like a really cool guy.

Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to ever let Rusty Wallace commentate on an Indy 500?
Marco didn’t arc out the entry of the corner enough. Sam just kept closing in lap by lap and was arcing out way more than Marco was
Typical Andretti choke!
Go home Rusty. You're drunk.
Lol.... Marco Andretti, 19 year old sensation..... lol
most exciting Daytona 5- scuse me, MOST EXCITING INDY 500 EEVVEERRR! lol
I'd like to see Sam return to indycar someday, I'm sure he could win the 500 again
NRAgunnut1993 He should go back full time. What, a nearly second-tier championship versus three championships? Not a good idea to move. But, I'll support him either way.
Paul page would have called this perfect. Too bad he left calling the Indy races in 2004.
ruclips.net/video/4z2lX30atmE/видео.htmlm4s
@pacmancucumber1783
Same here. He does well early half of the race til midway most of the times gets caught up with bad luck
THE CURSE LIVES!!! GO PENSKE!!!
Why was Rusty calling the Indy 500? He has no business being in Indycar
yeah but ESPN thought it would be good idea wimpman94 for practice for him in a booth going into 2007 when they would have NASCAR again
Marco: Bye Bye
Michael: Get ‘em with the next gear
Sam Jr: Aw you little racer
Michael: Block ‘em Block ‘em
Dan: Oh god the little man is about to kiss the bricks
Mario: you got it son you’re destination is ahead
Roger: Hey Sam,beat this rookie while making your move,now
Sam Jr: Got it Roger
Marco: Hey Sam I’m kissing the bricks, I’m going to make it , I’m going to make it
Penske Crew: ¡Come on you Sam!
Marco’s Parents: Beat ‘em to the finish line Marco!
Marco: I’m the champ
Sam Jr: ¡Oh No You Don’t!
Penske Crew: Get ‘em Sam Jump Ahead
Marco: yeeeeees…wait oh no oh no
Sam Jr: ¡I Did it! ¡I Beat him! He’s Grounded ¡Woohoo!
Marco: oohhh nooooooooooo! Sammy
Penske: yeaaaaaaahhh another victory
His Crew: ¡HOORAY FOR HORNISH!
Andretti’s Crew: aw maaaan!
Parents: Ohhhhhh my god our sons lost
Sam Jr’s Parents: Oh yeah ¡He did it! ¡Yaaaahoooooo!
Sam Jr: Hey Everyone I’m the champ I beat Mario’s sons
Fans: ¡HOORAY FOR HORNISH!
Helio: Hey Sam, You’re the man
This is so sus. Closed that gap twice in 2 laps. What did penske put in his car. Extra push to pass, illegal adjustmenr , nitrous??
Awful announcing lol god
I bet u would of done way better with all your broadcasting major sporting events experience jackass
ruclips.net/video/c_diGePYJw0/видео.html
can the andretti curse be broken?
I think that Marco's move may have cost him or his father the indy 500.
Michael had old tires and was slower as a result. If Marco tucked in behind, they’d have both been passed
And Sam Hornish has been languishing in the where are they now file for more than a few years
Ja o pai ganhou uma em 1969 e partir dai foi uma vida de jejum enfim. decididamente para a familia andretti a indy 500 nunca foi a sua praia
Why is Sammy Hornish racing in NASCAR Nationwide? Shouldn't he return to
IndyCar racing? He should try to win another Indy 500 with his talent.
hes won the indycar championship 3 times and the indy500 once already.
Yes I agree with you, I think he would have won multiple championships and 500s if he had stayed in IndyCar.
Ja o marco tambem perdeu 1 indy 500 em cima da meta.
I see crybaby Marco makes an appearance after the finish. Still Marco's highest finish at Indy.
Dont bullshit... Closest finish was hornish jr beat the unser jr by a foot....!!!
Give Marco for don't doing some bullshit blocking move.
I wish Marco won. Was he crying? I understand if he was.
At the age of 43? Really? :/
Re watching this how tf did Marco blow this? Or was Sams car just that good
Sam had less downforce on his setup so his car was much faster drafting. Being that Marco was in his first race, they kept his car a bit more planted which scrubs speed. Once Sam got within a few hundred feet of Marco it's like he got an extra 150 hp. Awesome job by Sam!
Shoulda stayed in Indy car
