Cygni posted:Claman de Melo going back to Indy Lights next year, a la Buhl in the 90s or Alex Barron in Atlantics. Paul Jasper went from Atlantics->4 CART races->1 Lights race and then seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth. It was a bizzare career.

Cygni posted:Claman de Melo going back to Indy Lights next year, a la Buhl in the 90s or Alex Barron in Atlantics. Not a bad career move given the scholarship money. He can try to bang down the doors in Indycar and maybe get an Indy 500 ride; or he can just step back into Lights, try to win the championship or finish high in the standings, and take a nice check to an Indycar team for a guaranteed 3 or 4 races and the 500. As a driver, you go to where the money is. for Calamity de Melo, if there's money in Lights then why not? He could also use probably use some more seasoning as a driver anyway, so it's a win-win if he can win.

Since Mazda is leaving the ladder Pro Mazda needed a new name. It is now "Indy Pro 2000"... which uh, isn't great imo. https://racer.com/2018/12/12/road-to-indy-middle-step-renamed-indy-pro-2000-championship/ Cygni fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Dec 12, 2018 |

It makes sense especially combined with the fact that it's a common tub with the USF2000, but... Yeah not the best name.

Indy 500 Entry List Already At 30 In Mid December, Could Grow To 39 or 40 by May https://twitter.com/ConnectRacing2/status/1023643547847802880 https://twitter.com/A_S12/status/1074753252514848768 A good sign of a healthy and exciting racing series is that there's a lot of good and cool news happening during the off-season. That's extra-cool-and-good in the case of Indycar since it has such a long off season.

That'd be great but that also seems like kind of an odd title sponsor company for an entire series?

The Kimoa Kid posted:It lends credence to the idea that they'll sign with IndyCar because they probably can't afford both. More like won’t, NTT as a whole is absolutely massive, with revenue in the double-digit billions USD annually. NTT Data is just a subset. So it’s possible that some part of NTT Group becomes title sponsor while NTT Data remains on Dixon’s car.
