Winning Brickyard crew chief......I know who you areeeeeeee......... :lol:

I hadn't see that before. Reminds me of the Bathurst intro a few years ago where the announcer tried to pronounce Fabrizio Giovanardi's name, got as far as..."Fab...Fab...err...Fabrizo?" then gave up and just said "Genevayyyy!"

Oh, I love a good blooper.

Sadly this means we'll have to deal with the shrill, nasal tinny voice of Bestwick in NASCAR, yammering on and on during the big incidents as he tries to over-describe the wrecks as they happen.
Now continue the rest of the thread saying how much you like Bestwick please!

As for Indycar commentator? What's Robin Miller up to atm? :p
(Would be Awesome if Jeremy Shaw gave it another go though, however I think he's more than enshrined in the Sportscar world now to come back to Open Wheel...)

Anyway. Shut. Marty's. Mic.

For all his idiocy, he handled Las Vegas 2011 with real class.

This feels like a devaluation of the month of May.

If you are going to hold two races, why not maximize profit and host it seperatly?

I can't believe they're not going straight on through the oval T1. Huge disappointment on an otherwise great update.

Lol new corners. They just mixed up the MotoGP layout with the old F1 one.

Great, a race that no-one wants to see, least of all me, and they've scheduled it for my Birthday. WHOOOOOOOO! :yuk:

Even the F1 layout had passing at turn 1. Glad to see they've fucked that up and there won't be any of that either....

A high profile single-seater race using the Indianapolis road course, and taking advantage of NONE of the oval turns. Nice one!

I don't really care where they run as long as the racing is good

There actually saying that its better than the F1 layout.
The slow hairpins towards the end of the F1 lap were removed some years ago & that change to the layout is better as they were really the only thing wrong with the layout.

I don't like that they removed the F1 turn 5-7 section as 5 was a nice fast, flowing turn, Turn 6 was a nice little technical corner where you often saw mistakes made.

And not actually running through the banking is ridiculous.


Unlike some im not against Indycar running the indy road course, But running it in May so close to the 500 is stupid.

Great news for TK.

I have a stupid question though... Will Chevy be just for TK or are Ganassi ditching Honda entirely?

Entirely, can't see a team using two different engines.

Honda also want a third manufacturer in.

Thanks Gaara, I thought the same. It wouldn't make sense. But now Chevy will be supplying all the main teams on the grid. This can't be good for Honda.
