Disaster both rahal and herta on the last stops. herta pit speed violation and rahal with a mess of a LR.
the allure of winning is magnetic to winners I don't see a perennial championship contender at Ganassi wanting F1 bad enough to do it as Lando's backup at a midpack team.
Zanardi and Montoya ruled CART/IndyCar while both were at Ganassi and they couldn't resist the rarified air of the F1 circus.
Monty won 4 races with Williams (and 3 with McLaren) Zanardi only did 1 season with Williams when they had that garbage customer engine, and ridiculous livery with Woody Woodpecker and a kangaroo. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Of course, Ericcson did his title chances no good by running into his fellow Swede on lap 1. Ganassi had the first-place car, and the last-place car!
Was there Saturday when #60 Meyer-Shank Acura of Pagenaud went off 4 and into the kitty litter of China Beach. Really thought I was witnessing a man die. Eight barrel roles to end up upside down against the far tire barrier. Thank heaven no fire. I was sitting on the viewing mound, under the pines, between turn 4 and turn 5. Aftermath: Image Unavailable, Please Login Little backstory: the evening before (Friday evening) I was in a Ralphie's Pub Restaurant in a small town some 12 miles from Mid Ohio track. Guys in black shirts show up in new Acura TLX-Type S's. Get to talking to them, guy nearest me after a bit introduces himself. Micheal Shank. (I should have known but I'm no "hero worshiper" at all....) Had a very pleasant conversation with him. Nice guy.
This weekend will be streaming only. I guess this is what happens when two competing networks have the same owner. USA (no powerhouse, either) gets NASCAR and IndyCar is shuffled off to Peacock.
there's currently a sale on peacock, a year for $19.99 (~$40 savings), sign up if you haven't. it's worth it. if you can figure out how to use Fchat, you can use Peacock.
This is iften forgotten, but Montoya was very good in F1. I wonder why he threw it all away to go back to NASCAR.
rain during qualifying at Toronto has made it interesting, but damn I hate the IndyCar qualifying format.
