Helio Castroneves' crash in practice today.

I saw some images of the Honda aero for this race. Will have to take a closer look once I get home.

Same day as Monaco. It should be awesome to have two great events back to back.

And then the Coca Cola 600 afterward if you're into NASCAR. I always record Monaco (6 AM PDT), watch the 500 live, and catch the start, finish, and parts of the 600.

What's everyone's take on the Chevy aero package. We had the Castroneves crash on Wednesday, then yesterday Josef Newgarden had a nearly identical crash. It was strange that they both had the rear end step out like they did. The car seems unpredictable at the limit, which would make some drivers nervous in qualifying. We shall see.

:fingerscrossed: they modify the aero to make it safer. Lucky to not have had any fatalities. Let's hope there are no more issues.

Here's a more recent and detailed take on what's going on:

http://motorsportsta...partner=ya5nbcs
  • Three drivers have escaped three serious, or serious-looking accidents, largely unharmed. For that, we can thank the Dallara DW12 safety cell, which has protected the driver monocoque.
  • Come Fast Friday, today, the boost level will be increased from 130 kPa to 140 kPa for “Fast Friday” practice and this weekend’s qualifications. The change in pressure adds about a 40-horsepower boost to the engines produced by Chevrolet and Honda. The boost level will return to 130 kPa for the remainder of the month starting on Monday.

The Raptor 05-16-2015 11:40 AM
Qualifying is rained out today. It's all compressed into tomorrow, assuming no more rain.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 04:27 AM.
