He cut big holes in the chassis to make it fit, and then found that they were really helping with cooling.

He's not wrong. It was one one of the things brought up when whatshisface does a few year back. IndyCars are not stock cars, they really can't handle the high bank turns all that well

Of all the reasons to break down, I'm sure lack of fuel didn't stop that McLaren.

Technical impossibilities aside, how would McLaren pay for Mercedes engines anyway.

How would they even pay for Alonso.

It's normal for Our Ross. How come he isn't called The Boss anyway? Since he was literally a boss. Instead we only call wife beaters that.

Luckily for them, Indianapolis Motor Speedway isn't a high-banked oval by any description.

They race at Texas, which is higher banked though.

Though that's one of the fast tracks.
