"This is my home race, so everybody is chasing me," Matsuura says. "The Indy 500 is the biggest race for most drivers. Motegi is the most important for me."

That's going to make him a bunch of friends at IMS. :laugh:

You just don't know what "Motegi" means

[Chief]

It's MoNTegI.

[Don Quixote]

Honda agrees with him. :laugh:

"All the Japanese fans will be going home early if I don't finish all 200 laps," Matsuura says

They say the Brazilian fans used to do this when Senna went out. It must be Kosuke mania over there. :thumbup:

It was a short day for Japanese driver Kosuke Matsuura, who lost control of his car and slammed into the wall on the first lap.

Guess the stands emptied out after Lap 1. ;)
