Also its 2020, how do we not have cams in+on every car. Like 10 years ago, the answer was "its real expensive, wireless data bandwidth is a dark art! and its hard to tie into the TV truck!"... but every year that goes by, that excuse works less on me.

I think we do, on top of the cars anyway, but the nose/tail cameras are limited. Maybe?

Because they'd rather make sponsors pay to have in-car cams for their cars.

Roger Penske is officially the owner of Indycar, as of this month. Still amazing to think about. edit: As of today! https://twitter.com/IMS/status/1214204083592204290 WindyMan fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Jan 6, 2020 |

There was a year (1997) where only 3 races had roof cams before teams complained about an aero advantage to the cars with them, so they took them away.

Dunno why any car in Ganassi's stable that isn't the 9 or 10 is required to have a boring scheme (dont you dare mention Dixon's Coors Light car in CART 02) https://twitter.com/Ericsson_Marcus/status/1217088321932972033

In a shock to probably nobody, Penske is "considering" running McLaughlin in a few races this year with the IMSA crew. https://au.motorsport.com/indycar/news/penske-considers-mclaughlin-indycar-race/4651526/

I'm all for them, especially if it means a rain delayed race still goes to 500 miles on Sunday.

 When I saw Genesys my mind interpreted it as Genesee, was hoping for the return of the Genesee beer wagon.

Hinch feels like a driver in the vein of Dale Jr. He's good to get a win or two every year, not good enough to win it all, but he's super personable and a sponsor's dream when it comes to being a spokesperson.

Hinch is just another mid-pack racer that likes to whine a lot. Trading his sorry rear end away to give O'Ward or Askew a shot in a decent ride was a great move.

Hinch got a bad break this season. Hopefully he ends up back in a seat but uses this season to explore series and have some fun. Speaking of spm:  https://www.instagram.com/p/B7mIYNCH4f5/?igshid=1f337lw9te6b5

Kimball in the #4 for the full season https://twitter.com/AJFoytRacing/status/1220023100605181952 Miller says the second car will apparently have Bourdais for the first 4 races then Dalton Kellett for the rest of the road/street, and TK on the ovals

Dalton Kellett is like sub-Binder bad. I expect him to be totally out of depth a la Dracone. Rene at least won things in lower categories.

It'll be weird seeing Santino as the "veteran" of the Coyne roster, but he showed some promise last year in an incredibly talented rookie class and deserves another year to see what he can do.
