Watching practice, it looks like the aero package lets the trailing car follow pretty closely through the corners, and the draft is useful, but not Handford device levels of crazy. That could make for some good racing IMO.

Yeah, Montoya mentioned that they could follow in the corners better. I like that.

If you lose the airbox and the rear bumpers, the Chevy would really look good in my opinion.

I know it's getting repetitive but I'm really amazed by how closely they can follow through the corners. I'm so used to that being impossible that it's hard not to cringe watching them do this right now, lol.

Looks like it is Jakes who blew up, apparently Simona's issue was a fuel leak from a faulty fuel buckeye but the buckeye is on the left side and the fire was on the right side of the car though
