That’s really ugly.

I like Redd’s idea of putting her in the Lights Series, but I still think she doesn’t belong in the series at all right now. I loved Roth’s passion and effort he put into the sport, and I’d rather watch that man race any day over Milka. I’m not a Milka basher (even though it may appear that I am) but I don’t want anybody getting hurt. Great column George!

It’s all relative.

The reason Duno is starting higher is simply because she was in the second qualifying group, while Carpenter was in the first qualifying group, and the first qualifying group had 11 drivers in it, while the second qualifying group had only 10, so they were both last in their group, but Carpenter started last because there was one more odd-numbered car. It’s a quirk of the IndyCar qualifying system on road/street courses. Maybe they should stop splitting cars into two groups.

Rather odd poll choices to include several of the best and several of the worst drivers on the same poll…

But definitively she should run Lights to help her with more experience.
