According to the article I read which quotes Dale Coyne, Pietro is a viable option to share the second seat as Dale hasn’t been able to find a second driver with budget for a full season.

Based on his lower series performances, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Indycar always needs a random yellow generator to throw race strategies into chaos.... :whistling:

My memory might not be good but it seems this is the first time Total is so visibly involved in American open-wheel?

I don't think so, Total had already sponsored the golden age of Arie Luyendyk in IndyCar, more specifically a tiny sponsorship in 1990.

Schmidt and Shank reveal their liveries. Only major change is the #7 now becomes the #6.

Indycar's measured approach to driver head protection continues.

It looks good, but I'm really interested to see how they will simulate different times of day...

If the test is like last year, then it's a day-to-night test.

Makes sense, but makes the word 'simulation' seem unnecessary lol.

Quote:
Testing of the windscreen on Feb. 8 at Phoenix International Raceway will be broken into three phases. Set within the test day for IndyCar's rookie drivers on the one-mile oval, the series will clear the track at approximately 4 p.m. and put four-time series champion and 2008 Indy 500 winner Scott Dixon to work in his Chip Ganassi Racing Honda for 5-10 laps in full sunlight.

Rookie will resume testing on their own before Dixon returns for another 5-10 laps at approximately 5:30 p.m. to gather feedback on how running at dusk affects his ability to see through the windscreen at 190mph or more.

The final outing is planned for roughly 7:30 p.m. with the same number of laps reserved for full darkness, albeit under the lights at PIR.

see is not that hard to provide head protection without killing the looks of the car
