I'tt just shift the crash from the last turn in the formation lap to the first turn in the race, since the field might me more bunched up arriving there.

So every race that has a standing start.

Now that I think about it, Long Beach does have that problem with restart line-ups with that hairpin turn.

How many of the standing starts that Indycar achieved in 2013 had first corner accidents?

Panther is kicked out of the Leaders' Circle for 2014.

Wonder if Barnes still thinks getting rid of Randy was such a good idea.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

IndyCar has started thinking about the possibility of introducing a "Garage 34" entry for the 500, saved for innovative racers, much like the "Garage 56" entry at LeMans.

I'd say DW12 with hybrid technology.

I think there's plenty of opportunity there. Would be nice to see a DW12 with a powertrain similar to something like the P1.

I like that. Hopefully he does well.

2 past 500 winners and series champs returning this year, that can't be bad.

Sounds good. Let's fund our own entry. We could come up with something awesome. Like a car that performs good AND looks good.

Image

In all seriousness however, no, fuck off. If you have the capacity to run an extra car, then give it to an entry which attempted to qualify for the race in a legitimate manner, rather than giving it away to whoever can tape electric motors to the most ridiculous looking cars that they can come up with.

Mercedes should tune their power unit to race at indy (to a more reliable and ethanol compression), pick it up a talented oval racer and try to make it with easy just like 1994
