This is a fun race to watch. Great win for Rick Mears to open the 1989 CART season.

I agree. Not only did that cost him essentially a full season, but you have to assume that he would have won some additional road courses as well.

He may have even went to F1, he had outran Nelson Piquet in testing by 0.8 of a second. Either way, the wreck at Sanair robbed us of the greatness of prime Rick.

And probably at least one more series title. He's one of the best oval racers of all time either way, but Rick was pretty good on road circuits before the accident. The injuries to his feet made it a little more difficult for him to shift effectively. That said, he still wasn't bad on the road courses by any means. He finished 5th/4th/2nd/3rd/4th in points his last 5 full seasons. You can't do well just on ovals and finish that high that consistently.

@@Eibarwoman Did Rick have the talent to run F1 (prior to the accident)? Absolutely. But the culture of the F1 world would have been a turn off for Rick. He's well known as being a very laid back "regular" guy. The high visibility, high pressure world of F1 wouldn't have appealed to him. I'm sure he could have handled it, but if given the choice...
