INDYCAR Fast Six: What's trending in @IndyCar
JAN 17, 2018
INDYCAR's #FastSix is a report that borrows from all things found online about Verizon IndyCar Series racing, its drivers and people. We find pics, quips and the occasional GIF as INDYCAR drivers live their extraordinary lives and put the evidence on Twitter, Instagram and more. Check back regularly for the latest.
MARCO’S MANY RIDES
Bonus points for anyone who can name all these different types of machines Marco Andretti has driven throughout his career. Impressive.
DANCING WITH THE STARS 2.0?
Maybe, maybe not. You can be the judge. Another question would be, does anyone think Robert Wickens knew Jack Harvey was rolling the camera as he “got after it?” Nah, we didn’t think so, either. This gem ended up for all in the Twitterverse to enjoy. Thanks, Jack.

SUNDAY NOT SO FUN DAY
This picturesque moment of Simon Pagenaud and a young race fan surfaced on his Twitter account and their two faces say it all. We know the feeling, little guy, not every Sunday can be a fun day.

WINNERS DRINK MILK
In the past week, National Milk Day was celebrated across the country. Fittingly, here are some reminders from the Chip Ganassi Racing and Andretti Autosport team Twitter accounts that there is no better place for a drink of milk than victory lane at the Indianapolis 500.
Did someone say it's #NationalMilkDay?#Dixon9 #IsItMayYet #INDYCAR pic.twitter.com/WOlJ1NkEgR
