Graham Rahal's car won't start to begin Indianapolis 500
Drivers, start your engines!
Unless you're Graham Rahal. The veteran IndyCar driver, who was bumped in qualification, picked up the ride vacated by Stefan Wilson after Wilson suffered a fractured vertebrae in a crash in Monday's practice.
But the Dreyer Reinbold No. 24 couldn't get started and was rolled into the pits prior to the green flag.
He returned to the field, but two laps down.
A rough May continues.

I'm on Graham Rahal duty today. He's back in the race with a spare battery after his car wouldn't start and he missed the green flag. Two laps back.
