On Sunday afternoon, Takuma Sato won the Indianapolis 500 and became the first Japanese driver to ever with The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.
Sato was forced to hold off former champ Hélio Castroneves on the final lap and it led to an epic finish.
While Sato’s trip across the finish line was historic, you can’t truly understand the magnitude of his win until you listen to the epic call from the Japanese commentators who absolutely went insane as Sato was coming to the checkered flag.
You can’t fake this kind of enthusiasm.
