In a moment of amusing irony, Grosjean spun coming out of the hairpin with Ericsson right behind him lol
Edit - Asked Romain in his post-race chat on Twitch what he thought of the iRacing IndyCar vs. the real thing and was cool to hear his response

Funny concidence, but Pietro Fittipaldi will be filling in for Grosjean during the ovals this season. https://www.planetf1.com/news/pietro-fi ... ean-ovals/ |

Now confirmed by the team. https://dalecoyneracing.com/2021/03/04/ ... -with-rwr/ Nice to see Pietro get a tilt at the 500. EDIT: I assume that this means James Davison will be in the #52 instead for the 500. |

I know that doesn't confirm anything but just saying. |

Chilton's return has been confirmed. Same races as last year; everything with right-hand corners and the 500. No word on whether Daly (or someone else) will complete the schedule for that car. |

Juncos has done an interview where he states that he has not sold his chassis to Paretta but is renting it to them. Penske will make upgrades to the chassis and after the 500 Juncos will get it back along with those upgrades. So they might pop up at some point. |

Another optimistic article on the 500 entry list from Pruett. https://racer.com/2021/03/23/pruett-bum ... 500-field/ tl;dr -Foyt may add a 4th car. -Carlin will not add a 2nd. -Davison is not yet confirmed with Coyne although he remains the favourite. -Dreyer & Reinbold will likely be just 1 car for this year. -Citrone\Buhl are not likely to return alongside Rahal but RLLR are planning to run a third car by themselves with Ferrucci currently at the top of their list. All told, there are 30 confirmed driver\team\engine combos and 6 probables (Foyt, Andretti, Coyne, Reinbold, Rahal & Top Gun), as well the outside chance of a second DRR car. |

This process of conducting major engineering works they don't fully understand and then panic-blasting it off when it has undesirable results reminds me vaguely of Chernobyl. |

At night no less! Don't worry, Eddie Gossage will go home, get some sleep and oversee the test...er I mean the resurfacing, personally!
