A couple snippets of news...
Zachary Claman De Melo (the DCR alternate driver) will replace the injured Emers---Christi---Pietro Fittipaldi for the I500.
No, only the Indy Grand Prix, which is this weekend.

Power leads from Wickens, when Newgarden fluffs it. Caution out.

That was a very decent race, spoilt by some terrible coverage by ABC/ESPN. Passing throughout the field, constantly.

Well done Will!
Heaps better than the F1 race. I'm still not used to seeing cars being able to follow each other through the corners. Been away from Indycar for too long.

Felt like I was watching a commercial with Indycar breaks. I'll be so happy when ABC is done with Indycar at the end of the year.

Good race. Definitely helped by the performance differential of the tyre compounds. I did lol when Chilton overtook Dixon early on. Dixon had the last laugh though.

Hildebrand was the first 'crash' of the event, with a light hit. 1:40min in the video.
Fast Friday ahead, with the engine boost going up. We'll see how they go.
