It isn't exactly a surprise, as I've heard this before, but Cody Ware? |

Guess the Rick Ware to IndyCars rumour from few weeks back carries some value? I wonder if the second Coyne entry won't use Ware's traditional NASCAR primary number #51? |

David Land has said that, contrary to Pruett's reporting, Coyne will expand to 'around 2.5 cars', with Grosjean and James Davison sharing the #19, and the Rick Ware car being an addition for Fittipaldi and Cody Ware. One way or the other, it should all come out next week. |

Land was right. The #19 becomes the #51 and there will be a part-time #52. https://racer.com/2021/01/29/full-seaso ... re-racing/ |

I really hope Grosjean and Fittipaldi come over next season. The field hasn't been stacked with this many big names since the 90's it feels like. I know not all these guys will be full time, but Grosjean, Fittipaldi, Rossi, Sato, Bourdais and Montoya all have raced in F1 at some point. Johnson's a 7 time nascar champ, McLaughlin 3 time V8 Supercar champion and the reigning Formula E champion seemed interested in a ride too. It needs to be April 18th already! |

How many cars are we up to now? Looks like we're in for another great indycar season to be won by Dixon this year |

Assuming that Carlin contract someone to complete the 3 ovals that Chilton won't do, there will be 24 full-time cars. |

Several teams are testing at Sebring tomorrow. Oliver Askew is on standby for Andretti in case Hinch is unable to make the trip https://racer.com/2021/01/31/askew-thri ... msa-debut/ - on a lesser note: Robin Miller was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America (presently located at Daytona - inside the former Daytona USA fan event center) https://racer.com/2021/01/30/robin-mill ... l-of-fame/ |

For those interested, there are currently 28 confirmed car-driver combos for the Indy 500, which should rise to 30 when Coyne\Ware's drivers are unveiled. |

lol I know who that is and I've seen a good but of his stuff but I'm missing the joke. I picked that date cause it's when the first race of the season is supposed to be happening. |

I assume engine settings and tire are obvious, but Im interested in seeing what mods have to be done it. I hope the team does some behind the scenes videos on the build. |

IndyCar should go back to Pikes Peak Raceway. The Denver area has no races in any series. |
