Duno wasn't even able to stay within 2 seconds on ovals, let alone the other races. Legge is shit, but not near as shitty as Duno.

jeez the coverage situation is shitty. i hope they work something out for the rest of the year cuz this is not they way to start out a new season with a new car. as for those speeds in P3 i really hope rubens can find something more in qual.

I tried to get used to this car but I can't. The front view is OK but the entire rear section looks so massive. Well, it is just plain ugly.

Doesn't matter, he's only 2 tenths off the best even after the shitty weekend he's had.

Something went wrong with Bourdais.

for anyone watching the timing and scoring right click on the track map and click on "experimental mode" and it fixed the choppy sound feed for me

I had started to warm up a little to the car a little after looking at enough pictures of it. Not liking it per se, but not actively hating it. But then I realized that was only from the front 3/4 view or side view. Any other angle makes the car look awful. The rear bodywork is just so bad. It ruins all the balance. Plus the rear wing looks like a barn door. It's MASSIVE. Is it really too much to ask for smaller wings and more horsepower???

Yep, pretty awful. According to this article, "The race will be broadcast at 5 p.m. (ET) March 29 on NBC Sports Network."

Same here, that "fat" part in the side of the car is ugly, the car would be great without it, plus the rear wheel protection is weird too, but the worst part is the fat side of the car

Balance is the key word there. The front is relatively small, but the back is huge. It's like a giant wedge. Given this is a spec chassis, with a spec aero kit, there is no need for it.

It reminds me of the GP3 cars. They are so horrendously boring sounding. They are spec cars, they should at least be made as interesting as possible, so fit them with a good sounding exhaust, rather than the horrible drone one they have.

I can ignore the sidepod on some cars because of the livery, but others just make it stand out worse. We'll see what happens when we get other bodykits.
