This race is about more than just Team Penske.
Third-generation racing star Marco Andretti is looking to capture the title that his legendary grandfather, Mario, only won once, and his father, Michael, never won. Marco had seemingly captured the family's second title in 2006, but Sam Hornish Jr. stole the victory away from him in the final seconds of the race.
It was just another heartbreaking loss in a long list of disappointments for the Andretti family at Indianapolis.
Coincidentally, 2006 was the last time an American won the race. As the best American hope, Andretti is not only carrying the hopes of his family, but also the hopes of a nation.
That is a ton of pressure for one driver. Can he rise to the occasion?
My mind says: no, he can't. It seems the heat, the pressure and the overall quality of Team Penske will be too much for Marco to overcome.
We'll have to wait and see, but my money (figuratively speaking) is on Castroneves.
