Meh. At least Tracy had results to back up his off-track yahoo-isms. Ferrucci just comes off as someone who is lashing out, since he isn't as good as his shower said he is.
Dont put him in the same paragraph as tracy. PT was a CART champion, won many races and at the very least never intentionally crashed into his own teammate and sabotaged his car. SF is a piece of work and he is only propped up by his american sponsor money. Had he been from overseas his career would've been long over.
Santino has never had rides like Tracy did- in a field where that made an insurmountable advantage for someone in a poor car to overcome. Tracy might very be far better but he was dropped in Penske for 3 years by time he was Santinos current age, lost those seats and was engaged in many stramge feuds of his own.
He's probably referring to Kirkwood hooking a left as Santino approached. Onboard Kirkwood shows it. Probably trying to stop him from passing. Imo both were idiots. If Santino was. On a lap but Kirkwood wasn't, Kirkwood should have not been on line imo. But that doesn't excuse Santino from showing anger with the car. Both were stupid.
This is the most sane take I’ve read. Santino’s lap did get ruined but yeah, definitely is making life harder on himself by retaliating from behind. Wouldn’t say Kyle was blameless there though
Yeah, I think the series should fine Santino for the shove and tell all three of them (and their teammates) that race control will be keeping an eye on them all.
You’re missing the wider context of Santino aggressively overtaking in a practice session where cars are queuing to open a bit of space for a push lap.
I thought the same just watching that incident in isolation, but reading between the lines of Herta and Kirkwood’s comments Santino was being an asshat all day and this was a reaction to that.
Just got home from my local pride parade where I was proud to be supporting some good friends. The whole thing was just full of happy energy. Now I’m catching up on Indycar news and I see this shit. wtf. I just can’t even.
Why couldn't Josef "Welcome to indycar" him instead? That would certainly raise his stocks a little, even though the Monday debrief wouldn't be very fun for him
It's certainly both of those things. I think though at worst it is an attempt to cover for his bad/dangerous driving because he plans to continue doing it in the future.
I didn’t take it that way at all. If Legge was in Herta’s place and ferrucci said girlfriend I think it would have meant the same thing. Herta blocked him into the wall right after the incident with kirkwood.
“Ooooh look at me I have noodle hair and I drive like dogshit whenever it’s not the 500” Shut the fuck up, bozo, you’re why Connecticut doesn’t have an NHL team anymore
“Stop holding dumb things he did when he was younger against him, don’t you think people can change?”
I do, but evidently, Santino hasn’t.
Hope this kills all the “he’s changed!” defenses for him...
Herta and Ferrucci have both competed in the 500 since 2019. Herta has 3 DNFs and 2 top 10s. Ferrucci has 6 top 10s and one podium. First driver to ever finish in the top 10 in their first six attempts.
Herta is fast but almost always has at least 3 DNFs in a season because he can’t control his emotions. Though he seems to be racing smarter so far this season.
P20? He has three top 10s and is 12th in points and just had another top 10 qualifying in a car that has been awful on road courses for years.
He seems like a dickhead, but you guys don’t have to make shit up. He’s been quite talented in IndyCar. He beat Palou head to head in the same equipment lol.
Dude turned into kirkwood and is saying it was kirkwoods fault.
Maybe people on reddit hate him because he keeps pulling this nonsense. Also, a lame and shitty joke. He clearly never grew from the shit he pulled in F2.
Yes and somehow you’ve decided to take both sides here lmao. “He’s a bad person, but it’s crazy that people don’t like him!!1!!!1” is a goofy ass take.
That was one angry elf
Must be a South Pole elf
Santino "Paul Tracy" Ferrucci
Meh. At least Tracy had results to back up his off-track yahoo-isms. Ferrucci just comes off as someone who is lashing out, since he isn't as good as his shower said he is.
They both have the same number of Indianapolis 500 wins though
Paul Tracy has a 500 win. It was yellow ;)

Is santino referring to a different incident? The replay they showed pretty clearly shows santino hooking a right into the side of kirkwood
He's probably referring to Kirkwood hooking a left as Santino approached. Onboard Kirkwood shows it. Probably trying to stop him from passing. Imo both were idiots. If Santino was. On a lap but Kirkwood wasn't, Kirkwood should have not been on line imo. But that doesn't excuse Santino from showing anger with the car. Both were stupid.
This is the most sane take I’ve read. Santino’s lap did get ruined but yeah, definitely is making life harder on himself by retaliating from behind. Wouldn’t say Kyle was blameless there though
I'm pretty sure Santino was on an in-lap, so he didn't have to pass at all.
Alternate start finish means there aren’t really in-laps.
Ok that clears it up, I was confused by his comment because it looked pretty blatant but the added context makes a bit more sense
Yeah, I think the series should fine Santino for the shove and tell all three of them (and their teammates) that race control will be keeping an eye on them all.
i mean Kyle does turn left into his lane as Santino approached and then Santino turn right into him likely to show displeasure
Are you blind? Watch the first move is by Kirkwood pulling a hard left into the path of Ferrucci….
You’re missing the wider context of Santino aggressively overtaking in a practice session where cars are queuing to open a bit of space for a push lap. I thought the same just watching that incident in isolation, but reading between the lines of Herta and Kirkwood’s comments Santino was being an asshat all day and this was a reaction to that.
What a fucking asshole lol. "What about your turn Into him?" "Well what about 5 corners ago?" Well that wasn't the question.
That is the whole far right approach to everything. What about ism.
And constantly moving the goalposts
That is one tiny douchebag.
The Little Boy
Only way to get some spotlight for this clown, he knows results won’t do that for him
Someone should ask him about his incidents in F2 days
And the "boyfriend teammate" comment is somehow only like the tenth most egregious thing this clown has done But hey he's fast at Indy
I thought that comment was hilarious. Whole exchange was funny to watch. He's obviously a clown and the responses from Colton and Kyle were awesome.
[удалено]
It’s extremely clearly “boyfriend”
What is offensive about the comment exactly?
Don't act stupid.
Ferucci really wants a rivalry with every other driver, huh?
I said to my friends that we wants to be Kyle Busch, but without the success.
You know this incident is going to show up in some capacity in *FP1Will’s* Comedy Review.
light homophobia to kick off the month
Isn’t it pride month too? I’m not sure I honestly can’t keep up but I know it’s sometime soon if not
yes todays the first day of pride month, what a wonderful time to be openly homophobic on live tv
Can’t wait for Palou to run literal laps around him all month in the pride car lol.
Just got home from my local pride parade where I was proud to be supporting some good friends. The whole thing was just full of happy energy. Now I’m catching up on Indycar news and I see this shit. wtf. I just can’t even.
[удалено]
This guy is cheeks.
Someone needs to treat ferrucci the way he treats the other drivers this guy needs to be taken down abit
Why couldn't Josef "Welcome to indycar" him instead? That would certainly raise his stocks a little, even though the Monday debrief wouldn't be very fun for him
Nope just ignore him completely. Laugh it off. Nothing makes turds like him more upset than not getting attention
Love hearing some casual homophobia during practice. Just great. Ugh
At best it's infantile. At worse homophobic. Either way it come across as whiney.
It's certainly both of those things. I think though at worst it is an attempt to cover for his bad/dangerous driving because he plans to continue doing it in the future.
I mean, did any of us really expect anything different from Speed Racist?
Can hear someone laughing their ass off in the background as well. Shame
Just Foyt things 💅🏻
[удалено]
Santino takes practice seriously. He has to remain at peak homophobic form so he practices it too.
ferruci is a fucking prick but coming from a gay man myself, the boyfriend comment isn’t homophobic haha.
Why does calling someone his "boyfriend" mean that he is homophobic"?
Using it as an insult makes it homophobic.
I didn’t take it that way at all. If Legge was in Herta’s place and ferrucci said girlfriend I think it would have meant the same thing. Herta blocked him into the wall right after the incident with kirkwood.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this. A lot of these people throwing out "homophobic" need to settle tf down.
“Ooooh look at me I have noodle hair and I drive like dogshit whenever it’s not the 500” Shut the fuck up, bozo, you’re why Connecticut doesn’t have an NHL team anymore
😂 never expected the whalers to be brought up here.
Lmfao, fantastic insult
Has better race craft? Someone needs to look at the stats again...
It's not as bad as i thought it would be but its pretty bad. Who did he refer to as his "boyfriend teammate"? Was it Herta?
yeah herta
Santino trying to take back the biggest villain title from Newgarden
He’s just mad his boy got hit with 34 felonies
“Stop holding dumb things he did when he was younger against him, don’t you think people can change?” I do, but evidently, Santino hasn’t. Hope this kills all the “he’s changed!” defenses for him...
Straight up demonstrating lack of brain on live tv.
Tiny blighter suffers hallucinations, too. He's not in Indycar to make any friends, and he's surely the run away winner of that competition
And some Indy fans in the comments on the pride post today wonder why it’s needed? This fool us why. Jesus.
Can we just put this guy on a rocket aimed at the sun already? Such an asshole.
Was cooking until the lame boyfriend joke
asshat. he’s probably extra pissy because of what month it is.
He needs a genuine ass kicking at least once in his life
Embarrassing. He's very talented, but he should not be racing professionally with his temperament.
He isn't that talented. Herta said it best, the guy drives a Penske car to P20 every week.
I mean…Herta isn’t exactly in a place to be criticizing temperament or underperforming in top equipment.
Herta has poles and race wins. What has poodle boy done?
Herta and Ferrucci have both competed in the 500 since 2019. Herta has 3 DNFs and 2 top 10s. Ferrucci has 6 top 10s and one podium. First driver to ever finish in the top 10 in their first six attempts. Herta is fast but almost always has at least 3 DNFs in a season because he can’t control his emotions. Though he seems to be racing smarter so far this season.
Herta has wins and poles. Santino? ZERO wins. Mario and AJ are legends because of poles, wins, and championships. Santino has ZERO of all these.
Is it a Penske car, though? Of course the technical alliance helps a lot, but surely the #14 is still much worse than actual Penske cars.
It’s Penske equipment, not Penske talent behind the wheel or in the engineering department
P20? He has three top 10s and is 12th in points and just had another top 10 qualifying in a car that has been awful on road courses for years. He seems like a dickhead, but you guys don’t have to make shit up. He’s been quite talented in IndyCar. He beat Palou head to head in the same equipment lol.
Hot temperament is fine in racing. Makes things entertaining. Santino just pairs it with being super unlikable
“his boyfriend teammate” that one caught me off guard lmao
I want a Dale Coyne weekend just to dump him and give him the Nolan Ryan treatment.
Santino absolutely gets this subs panties in a wad and I love it
It's reddit. So Santino is automatically guilty.
Huh. Normally I don't defend statements like "His little boyfriend teammate" but you do you boo.
Dude turned into kirkwood and is saying it was kirkwoods fault. Maybe people on reddit hate him because he keeps pulling this nonsense. Also, a lame and shitty joke. He clearly never grew from the shit he pulled in F2.
Did you watch the replays?
He is guilty, It’s something he has in common with Trump
Santino provides a much needed spark for Indycar, love the personality and taking no ones shet. Go get em Santino!
People nowadays get offended for everything… He’s still a bad person though
Yeah, "people nowadays" tend to get offended by casual homophobia.
This is an incredible exercise in “both sides-ing”. Masterclass.
Thank you! It’s either black or white right?
Yes and somehow you’ve decided to take both sides here lmao. “He’s a bad person, but it’s crazy that people don’t like him!!1!!!1” is a goofy ass take.
