An Inside Peek to the Super Bowl Fun
MIAMI (Feb. 6) -- So what's it like to be on the inside of a Super Bowl contender?
We contacted A.J. Foyt IV about what was going on down in Miami and asked him to send back a schedule of the festivities surrounding his involvement at the Super Bowl. For those of you who may have missed it this past summer, A.J. IV married Casey Irsay, daughter of Jim Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts, the AFC Champions who are in Miami contending for their second Super Bowl win in three years.
He obliged by sending nine texts!
The couple flew down to Miami Wednesday afternoon on the Irsay family jet and then joined Casey’s sisters and family for dinner that evening. “When we walked in, we saw Lynn Swann and Barry Sanders and knew we were at the Super Bowl,” he texted.
Thursday was spent lounging around the pool at the beautiful Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort where the Irsay family is staying--as is A.J. IV’s mother Nancy and his sisters Tonia and Casie. His dad Tony was hosting hunters at the Foyt Game Ranch this week.
Vitor Meira Meets President of Brazil Along with Fellow IndyCar Drivers
BRASILIA, BRAZIL (Feb. 4)--Vitor Meira traveled with his fellow Brazilian drivers to his hometown of Brasilia, Brazil this week to meet with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the president of Brazil, who pledged his support for the São Paulo Indy 300 which will launch the 2010 IndyCar Series season March 14th.
Joining Meira in the ceremonies were fellow drivers Helio Castroneves, Tony Kanaan, Mario Moraes, Raphael Matos, Ana Beatriz and Mario Romancini. After congregating at Apex Brasil where they met with executives of the official ethanol provider to the IndyCar Series, the drivers along with Terry Angstadt, President/IRL Commercial Division, went to Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil where they met the president at 5pm Tuesday afternoon.
Click on the video below to see the president being presented with his own specially designed helmet. The reporter then shows a clip of the actual roadway (used during the ‘Carnival’ celebration) that will be transformed into a section of the race circuit. Vitor Meira is shown answering a question about the two-day event which translates roughly to: “Saturday will be a very important day because that is the day that we will be working on the cars; when Sunday comes, what we will have is only the reflection of our work on Saturday.”
Vitor Meira Competes In World Class Triathlon in Southern Chile
PUCÓN, Chile January 24, 2010—Vitor Meira had to leave his No. 14 ABC Supply Indy car at home for his most grueling race of the season: his first world class triathlon, the Ironman 70.3 Pucón Sunday morning. Pucón is located in southern Chile, about 500 miles south of Santiago, the country’s capital.
Meira, who will turn 33 in March, finished 40th out of nearly 100 competitors in his age group of 30 – 34-year-old men; he was 179th overall of 750 competitors. It was a strong showing for the amateur competing against many professional triathletes.
A triathlon is a multi-sport endurance event consisting of swimming, cycling and running in immediate succession over various distances. Triathletes compete for fastest overall course completion time, including timed "transitions" between the individual swim, bike, and run components.
