I'm assuming they'll be using the layout they normally use, rather than the one above?

The shorter hairpin makes sense, but they have GOT to stop running that fucking chicane. It's a goddamn abomination.

+1000

it's horrible in iRacing, and that's before they widened it & added more curbing.

I wonder if I'll watch this. It's been a while since I watched Indy at Sonoma from flag to flag. Live or not. Really mad that the final isn't in Fontana.

Newgarden and Hinch with the wrecks in practice, Hinch out the final turn into the wall...damaged it pretty bad

Both are still expected to turn up for qualifying though.

I think the last race proved that

The fact that Power is still slightly in contention despite missing the entire first race is worth mentioning and isn't getting much acknowledgement. Great job.

Well pointed for Power.



Though, for Pagenaud, last year was about the same for Monty and that happened....

At least Dixon can't win the championship this year...but he can still win this race. :cry:
