Well drat. Did not see that coming. Also I’d be okay with Hinch replacing the host guy from the Chevy ‘real people’ commercials.

He's gone from hawking Type R's to Silverados lol loving rekt. They might give him like 3 seconds with a Corvette but it's SUV & Pick-Up town after that. Also great timing as GM Canada is laying off like everyone.

What does Chevrolet even get out of IndyCar? All their poo poo in North America is now just pickups and SUVs and the Corvette has its entirely own IMSA/Sports Car series so that aspect is taken care of.

Couple interesting tidbits coming out with the McLaren poo poo. Zak Brown (Hack Clown) is going to meet with Alonso at the Italian Grand Prix and talk about 'things'. Fucknando Shitlonso has yet to show any interest in running full-time Indy apparently and there haven't been any Indy 500 discussions for 2020 and beyond so there's that. Also, James "Cha-Ching" Hinch-"Hollywood"-cliffe isn't as solid in McLaren as noted: quote:[...] https://www.motorsport.com/indycar/news/alonso-successful-indycar-brown-mclaren/4512774/

Robin Miller, that one-man truth bazooka, also also has a silly season column up discussing how the McLaren-Arrow SP news could shake things up. The smartest note is about drivers for McLaren - they didn’t announce anyone, and there was no “we look forward to James leading our team” comments - and combined with RLL suggesting they could go to three cars, that’s where Miller suggests Hinch could go next year. Miller’s lean on McLaren drivers for next year: Nasr and Lefiti. Wouldn’t be surprised if at least one of them makes it in. I would guess somebody with Indycar experience would be good for the second seat.

Latifi's been having a really good F2 season and his focus has been on F1. I'd be surprised if he went to IndyCar. Nasr is pretty much a shoe-in given his career's downward trajectory.

Letifi I can see taking a seat in IndyCar because there aren’t enough seats available in F1 right now. Where would he go? McLaren locked up its two current drivers.

Sure, now it’s just branding agreement but already Gil has been put in charge and Honda is ditching them. Now the driver line ups are being hoisted up. And slowly it’ll start eroding away whatever is left like piss in a water cooling loop.

I can also see the Meyers-Shank deal with SPM sliding over to become associated with Ganassi instead. Would make the most sense.

Do yourself a favor and take a look at the F1 thread, then throw everybody in there on your ignore list before Alonso shows up in Indycar again.

The worst thread is a cesspool of shitposts, nothing more. F1 is considerably more entertaining without engaging with other F1 fans.

It was over 20 years ago that Will Smith told that giant bug "don't start nothin, won't be nothin" and I think it's a lesson everyone should take to heart. In all seriousness though, Cygni posted:I don't know or give a poo poo about any of the F1 drama so he seems like a pretty cool guy to me. He tried Indy twice, makes him cooler than any other world champ in a long time. F1 drivers don't normally venture too far outside of F1, and the cynical part of me believes it's because they think it's the best series in the world but know it's not exactly the end-all be-all in terms of determining who is good at driving a race car. That Alonso is branching out to a bunch of different series says quite a lot about his confidence in himself. Of course it's cool that he tried Indy twice, I love it, but the dude is probably doing Dakar too. Ridiculous.

That said the stance locking people into watching everything on cable or a cable-supported web platform is predictably cynical for a broadcaster owned by one of the largest cable companies. I just hope they improve their dogshit broadcast deal in Japan, get on DAZN you fools.
