Alonso puts up a lap at 222.548 mph at Indy on his first day our. A lap like this on a chilly, damp, windy day is pretty damned good for a guy who has never driven and asymmetricly set up oval car before. He commented that his right foot seemed to have its own brain which was not in sync with the brain in his head. After the Spanish GP he will come back to Indy and they will take off downforce and try to get him closer to 230mph.

May in Indy will be a lot of fun!
