Yeah! Seems like the season is shaping up nicely. The whole field looks competitive, so I expect many different winners and some drama this season. Great to see Juan adapt well. Sure he'll be there once or twice to grab a "great" result from the season favourites. Sure I'll cheer for him to do so. :P

VICS is a pretty cool acronym tbh.

Can we ask IndyCar to drop Pablo from Juans name? Get old Juan Montoya back as IndyCar champ.

Also still remember Helio Castroneves being named "Castro Neves" in CART. Confused me, whether his name was Castro Neves or Castroneves. :P

First it was "Castro Neves", then it became "Castroneves". At some point it was "Castro-Neves" too. Guess the original spelling was too hazardous for PR since it made people think about COMMUNIST Cuba too much, lol.

I posted this in the Black thread. A good tribute by Robin Miller: http://www.racer.com/index.php/more/vie ... bin-miller

People kept calling him Helio Neves so he added the - before just putting both parts together I think it was.

Someone postet that clip on track forum. It's new to me and I like it very much:

i still remember kenny mayne calling him "Helio Castro dash Neves" on sportscenter when doing the highlights of the races haha

Some safety upgrades have been introduced for the cars.

Double points ?!

Double points is for the triple crown 500 mile races. Good idea actually.

No more ten place grid penalties for engine changes before the mandatory limit, instead the manufacturer will lose ten points from the manufacturer championhip. Definitely a good idea.
