What's with the flashing lights embedded in the rollhoop?

As I have understood, something like booster indicator

They have a "push to pass" system, so the lights are the number of times the driver still ca use it, when it uses you can see the light flashing

Thanks for the info

Not that I know of. Since last year, there's an official stream channel but it's pay-per-view. The only thing I've found are short highlight clips on Youtube (like 5 minutes clips with music).

I will prepare a new 2012 thread for the next weeks, it will have information of all teams and all drivers, tracks, schedulle, everything

The Season begins the April 15th at Suzuka. Looks like Takuma Sato will run some selected races this year.

Yes, propably only 2 or 3 races, most of the season races collide with Indycar dates... by the way, this season will be the season with the most cars since the new Swift chassis entered the series in 2009, it will be 18 cars when Sato is there and 17 when he's not. We will have champions in this season, Matsuda (07,08), Duval (09), Oliveira (10) and Lotterer (11), the season is going to be great!

Wait, i though Lotterer is not running in Japan due to his Audi Program?

The WEC races won't collide with the F-Nippon races, so he can do every single race this season, last year he missed Autopolis because of the Le Mans 24H. He just missed the pre season tests at Fuji due to the WEC, but the season is fine.

oh, great

Thanks for infos!

so wait, what did the red lights mean on the rollhoop in the last race?

Its the "push to pass" indicator

Formula Nippon will change its name for 2013 season, a name suggestion process is open in Japan, people can send postcards with their name option, the prize is a pair of paddock tickets for the whole 2013 season, plus a Honda or Toyota car.

Formula Banzai!
