Hatlelid produced NASCAR
for 15 years for ESPN and NBC,
and this is her first year as the
full-time producer for NBC’s
coverage of IndyCar. On the fi-
nal day of qualifying, Hatlelid
navigated 58 straight minutes of
action on NBC without a com-
mercial break.
“That was two days of plan-
ning of us chatting it out, should
we go here, should we go there,”
she said. “The lead-up is just
kind of thinking of everything
you need to get in and how to
incorporate it properly and
make it work for the fan. That’s
what matters.”
That includes telling the story
through vignettes of select long-
time Indy 500 fans who return
Sunday after a year away be-
cause of the pandemic.
Hatlelid will also help NBC
keep an eye on the female-led
team attempting history.
De Silvestro, making her
first Indy 500 appearance since
2015, is one of nine female driv-
ers who have started the race.
Sarah Fisher started nine times
and Patrick eight — she fin-
ished third in 2009 — and the
2010, 2011 and 2013 races all

for the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday in Indianapolis.
had four women in the field.
Fisher transitioned to team
ownership, then merged her
team with Ed Carpenter Racing
before getting out of IndyCar al-
together. Patrick made a much
publicized move to NASCAR
after becoming a crossover star
in I ndyCar. She retired after the
2018 Indy 500.
Maude Yagle is the only fe-
male team-owner to win the
Indy 500, in 1929 with driver
Ray Keech.
“Hopefully it’s resonated with
people to be more than another
team, another entry, trying our
best,” Paretta said. “We’re trying

to do a lot more and trying to

fully some inspiration, both

also know that anybody might

Paretta is the former motor-
sports director for SRT Mo-
torsports/Fiat Chrysler Auto-
mobiles. Paretta Autosport is
backed by Roger Penske in his
push for diversity. Penske, the
series owner, provides technical
support for Paretta Autosport
and the teams worked together
at Penske’s headquarters in
North Carolina.

“Although this is female
forward, I want to make sure
that everybody understands
that this is with the support
and help and guidance and
mentorship from some very
amazing and experienced men
who have worked in racing for
many years, who have been
part of this process from the
beginning and teaching some
of our women that are new to
IndyCar some of the ways of
working around this car and
working around this racetrack,”
Paretta said.
Until another woman wins
an IndyCar race, like Patrick
did in Japan, or the first woman
takes the checkered flag at In-
dianapolis, women landing the
sponsorship needed to fund se-
rious rides remains a problem.
There are no female drivers in
the IndyCar developmental sys-
tem.
Once they get it, the women
know they have to make the
most of their chance. It might
be their only one.
“Racing is all about being in
the right place at the right mo-
ment, and right now we just
have literally all the tools in
our hands to really show what
we can do,” de Silvestro said. “I
think that’s really uplifting.”

games. Howell, from Lone Tree, Colorado, had five goals and
two assists as Florida State reached the NCAA Division I final,
where it lost to Santa Clara 4-1 on penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw.
Announced Thursday by the Missouri Athletic Club, the awards
right to organize and collectively bargain with schools and con-
ferences under a bill introduced Thursday by Democrats in the
House and Senate. Sen. Chris Murphy (Conn.) and Sen. Bernie
Sanders (Vt.) announced the College Athletes Right to Organize
Act. “Big-time college sports haven’t been ‘amateur’ for a long
time, and the NCAA has long denied its players economic and
bargaining rights while treating them like commodities,” Mur-
phy said in a statement. This NCAA said the bill would “directly
undercut the purpose of college: earning a degree.” It added that
“turning student-athletes into union employees is not the an-
swer.” A companion bill was introduced in the House by Reps.
Jamaal Bowman (N.Y.), Andy Levin (Mich.) and Lori Trahan
(Mass.). The bill would amend the National Labor Relations Act
to define college athletes who receive direct grant-in-aid from
their schools as employees.
