Yeah, forgot that there are several versions now. But canaldigitaal (Holland) and TV-Vlaanderen (Belgium) have the French version in their tv package :thumbsup:

Last year carchannel had live-coverage, but their website says that they are still negotiating for this year (already 3 months or so...) So i don't expect much of that channel, so maybe RTL... i hope

The streaming's pretty good this year. I wish they could get this up for other races though.

Tagliani at the press conference: "Side by side restarts here are stupid".

Buddy Rice agrees.

Well, Indy has pretty much the one groove, and outside that groove wil be very dirty near the end of the race, and a late restart can caught several cars offline and it could be dangerous (like Kanaan a few years ago, that spun and got t-boned by Sarah Fisher).

That said, it's not like they'd be double file into T1. They don't even respect the 3-wide start anymore.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but there's apparently gonna be a world-record jump attempt in the Indy infield on raceday.

And from this video, the Hot Wheels people are trying to keep the driver a secret until then:

yea kinda what i was getting at it's like them complaining that passing might be done it turns. who cares if a car is next to them right after the green flag or the lap after get used to it theres (hopefully) gonna be passing lol

Hot Wheels should sponsor someone at Indy.

It's dry at the moment, but no one seems to want to go out.

Yellow is out once again for moisture. :(

I think the unusually cold temps turned a lot of the teams off from practicing today, as it's nothing close to what saturday/sunday temps will be.
