Does it feel like Bourdais is a different guy post F1 career?

Feels a lot more humble and such.

Also I really like that guy.

Could just be because PT has become more of a dick at the same time.

30% chance of rain from 9 am to 4 pm; increasing to 65% by 6 pm. There's a window, if they get after it.

Weather Underground says we have a window that's tigher than a gnat's rear end in a top hat to get the race in tomorrow:



So long as the race starts on time and we don't get too many shenanigans, we'll get to halfway at least. It might come up short, but your guess is as good as mine as far as when the skies open up for good.

i propose we trim down on some of this pre-race stuff and make up for it by firing a howitzer when they wave the green flags; really just take the starter's pistol to the millionth degree, y'know? have something go "BOOM" really loving loudly to cap off the military stuff

alternatively, we could just trim nothing and add the howitzer anyway, i'm good with whichever

They literally fire a cannon to open the garage on race day.

I guess if Parker Kligerman can talk about Indycars, Goodyear can talk about stockcars.

I discovered tonight that Ryan Hunter-Reay is probably half Canadian. Moves him ahead of Villeneuve for Canadian GOAT, IMO.
