If Darksky is to be believed, rain may be a factor, but it shouldn't be a rainout.

IOwnCalculus posted:Yeah, the question then becomes if you have a Honda, do you race your rear end off to be in the lead just past halfway, or take it easy and save full powaaa for lap 180. Depends who I am. If I'm Andretti or Ganassi, I'm playing safe early. If I'm Ed Jones say, you'd have to consider otherwise. If I'm Servia, with no championship to even pretend to think about, I'm running the living poo poo out of the thing.

Have spent part of the day watching Nurburgring 24H on my phone/computer, am now watching Monaco in potato quality on Chromecast, and really hoping the 500 is good I'll have to watch it on delay though, the 500 starts too early to wake up for on the Monday morning Japan time. So I'll catch it after work.

Sitting across from pit in Weather forecast looks good for the time being but it is pretty cool out. Wonder how it'll be getting the tires up to temp.

It would need to be a lot colder to have tire heat problems. 1992 was frigid.

Too early to tell, but still, the fact that KIND is still in Clear Air Mode is a good sign.

How long does the Indy 500 usually go on for assuming no drastic race stoppages? 2 hours? 3?
