1. Michael Andretti whining about Eddie Cheever is ludicrous.
2. It's funny that Michael Andretti's comments about Cheever are almost exactly the same as Mario Andretti's comments about Dick Simon 20 years ago.
3. it was Marco Andretti, he was leading and could get a victory on his first season
4. fuck eddie cheever. one of the dirtiest drivers there is, especially in open wheel. i know drivers block and do whatever it takes to win or hold their position. but eddie cheever, come on, you can't play dirty like that especially with these cars, stock cars or sport cars you can get away with it. michael andretti is absolutely right, regardless marco is his son and his car. all he does is drive dirty like an asshole
5. Where were the blue flags?
6. cheever is a cockbite!
7. Indy is tougher than NASCAR: open wheels. That being said Cheever must have had chick in the car with him to be THAT out if touch. It's like the two pilots on their laptops as they fly past thier destination at 30k feet. Bone head move.
8. @SaintBEEP probably the most incorrect statement I have ever read. Driving any vehicle fast takes a vast amount of skill. Both drag and Indy take large amounts of timing and control. Every split second is vital and difficult to be on the ball.
9. It amazing how well informed and knowledgeable these people seem to sound. All from the comfort of their own home. Indeed, from the comfort of their own bedroom, or school library. I refer you all to the DunningKruger effect. Look it up on Wiki.
10. @SaintBEEP Your comment is nonsense and ill informed. It is impossible to compare the skills involved, just like we would not compare a golfer to a tennis player, and wonder who is the more skilled. They are not for comparison.
11. indy car racingis probably the most easy form of racing, drag racing is probbaly harder, yet people still have trouble racing them.
12. Must have zero mistake on openwheeler racing! The best!
13. First off Indycar racing is no where near as hard as racing stock cars. There is a guy inside, he is running on the outside and he still cant manage to race. If you have never seen it before, NASCAR drivers go three wide allllll the time. If you would like to get more than 100 people to watch Indycar, they need to learn how to really race. The only race they have in a year that people watch is the INDY 500. Come on get real. If you would like to watch real drivers race, WATCH NASCAR
14. so if he always crashed in CART....then how is it that he managed to win 30 races, and lead over 5,000 laps in that series?.....just sayin
15. Touche. I still think Michael is a whiner though
16. *might agree with you. error on my part there.
17. if this were the first, or second, or maybe even the third time that cheever had done something like this, i would agree with you, but the fact that cheever has a history of causing such stupid incidents as this shows that maybe he SHOULDN'T be on the racetrack. just like if someone wasn't paying attention on the freeway and ran you off the road and wrecked your care because they were careless. you would say, "that person shouldn't be on the road because they were careless" that's not whining.
18. Looks to me you fail at seeing the difference between being upset and whining. Yes Michael has every right to be upset, but he didn't have to go as far as saying Cheever doesn't belong on the track. That right there is the typical Michael Andretti whine.
19. cheever was two laps down dude. marco was running up towards the front and might have had a shot at winning the race if i remember correctly. to do something as careless as cheever did, is not only unsafe, its just plain stupidity. michael has every reason to be upset: his son could have been injured, and his $800,000 car just got totaled because cheever was careless. i fail to see how thats whining.
20. @chriswinsagain how can you not see him serously
21. Yea, although the wins arent there, Marco has been having some lousy luck too. On the other hand, he is the runner up to Target/Penske's dominance
22. OK this was Eddie's fault, BUT we are now going on four seasons of Marco not doing well, and never admitting fault.
23. cheever needs to be bitch slapped wreck a car u r out too
24. sleazy cheever style hes a chump driver just my opinion
25. Happy belated birthday ! :-)

"The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not," Cheever said. "I'm not perfect, and neither are my accusers. Let's get back to racing."
