looks like they'd be ready to primary sponsor three cars if Wickens' car is to be believed. also, good, because gently caress Lucas Oil.

Not sure I like the livery (compared to some of the wilder schemes theyve run lately) Black/gold or black/yellow generally produce really good liveries. But yeah, there's something about those that makes it look substandard. Too much gold up front, I think?

at least one car should be all gold like the Warsteiner sponsored Arrows

Frond posted:It's kinda nuts they ran on the Sanair oval. The place was a deathring. I finished Sanair 1985. Crazy race. Villeneuve Sr. ran into the back of Bobby Rahal before the end of the race, right before the checkered flag Pancho Carter got the jump on Johnny Rutherford on the restart and won (but it was later revoked) with like 100m meters to go. CART seemingly didn't know what place Carter was in until the final 2 laps, as they had him classed as like 6th which became 2nd in a a matter of 20 seconds. I can understand Rutherford's position but I think Pancho was in the right. It's probably the best short oval race I've ever seen. Here is the video, I'd like to hear what you guys think; https://youtu.be/VcwKutLCXCE?t=6650

That is... bizarre. Since when would they go green for literally the distance from the corner to the checkered?

But most importantly, that he can return back to a “normal” life, regardless of racing again if he can walk and live like normal that’ll be a great success. That he’s so close to attaining that already? What a miracle.

Andretti is going to announce a driver for one of its Indy 500 rides tomorrow morning. Rumor is that it is Conor Daly.

I went to watch the 1991 and 1992 races. That place and that race just lives up to everything that an auto race should be. You could race drat golf carts there. People would still show up drunk, tearing up to "Back home again", and cheering on Kanaan or something when he would make a pass for the lead.

Conor got lots of praise for his Harding stint. Glad Andretti is rewarding him with a ride. That’s 30 confirmed car+drivers for Indy. Juncos, D&R, Coyne, Foyt, and SPM all have rumors/speculation about entries too.

CBJSprague24 posted:https://twitter.com/FollowAndretti/status/1090621958419632129 He had the speed to get to GP3 and GP2 and win in GP3, he was on par with guys who have won the Indy 500 and the IndyCar championship. He’s either made bad choices or had bad luck depending on how you look at it (it’s a very good question why Foyt dropped him after one year), but he’s hustled to try and stay involved. I hope he does well and can catch on full-time, he has the talent to be fast and is a good character for the series.
