There are so many things that I can say about the past week but ultimately none of it matters as I only feel full of gratitude. So thankful to my team, my family, my doctors, and all of @IndyCar for the opportunity to have a shot out there yesterday. See you in Detroit.
More coming later today, but until then, catch up on our shows from this week!

When you're going 200 mph – or preparing to send humans millions of miles away – small details make a big difference when the margin for error is slim.
See how @IndyCar driver Alexander Rossi’s preparation for a big race parallels our approach to Mars exploration.
[UPDATE] ECR driver Alexander Rossi underwent successful outpatient procedures this evening to repair minor injuries to a finger on his left hand and his right ankle. He sustained the injuries earlier today during an on-track incident while practicing for the Indianapolis 500. Rossi is in good spirits and has no additional injuries.
Rossi’s recovery will be under the care of INDYCAR Medical Director Dr. Julia Vaizer and the INDYCAR medical team. His progress will continue to be evaluated with the full intent of participating in final practice on Friday, May 22 and the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday, May 24.
The No. 20 Java House Chevrolet crew will prepare a backup car and return to the track for final practice on Friday, May 22.
Additional updates will be provided when available.
