As I’ve been at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for practice this year, one thing is clear, Twitter is a major hit with the vast majority of the drivers. Almost all of them have Twitter accounts and many of them tweet quite frequently.
Here’s the current list of driver Twitter accounts. Be sure to follow along and join in the conversation. You never know, they just might tweet you back.
