INDIANAPOLIS -- The 93rd running of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing lived up to the billing on Sunday with wild action (eight caution periods), a historic finish (Danica Patrick's third place) and a popular victory (Helio Castroneves' third Indy win).

Here's a look at some other storylines from Sunday's Indianapolis 500:

Ryan Hunter-Reay wasn't fast enough to earn a spot in next Sunday's Indianapolis 500 as he exited Turn 4 on his final lap of qualifying Sunday at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

But somehow, someway, the 28-year-old Floridian conjured up just enough speed in the final few seconds -- the final hundred yards -- to make the field by three hundredths of a second (.03) bumping out Canadian Alex Tagliani, who was sitting in his car, next in line to qualify, as the traditional gun shot sounded ending qualifications.

At Kansas Speedway this weekend, female race car drivers will make history with seven of them competing on the same track.

IRL's Got Milka

Behind the open wheel of an Indy car for only the second time, Venezuelan Milka Duno passed the IRL rookie test on Thursday to receive her series license.

The former sports car racer's start in Sunday's Kansas Lottery Indy 300 makes her the first Latina to compete in the series and part of the first three-female IRL event in history along with Sarah Fisher and Danica Patrick.

Pretty sure Duno's still the only Naval Engineer with four Master's Degrees from any country--male or female--driving in any racing league.

Impressive resume. Easy on the eyes, too, huh guys?
