Nah, maybe nervous the first time but not anymore. Just drive steady and it’s totally fine. Most of them are chatty, and they are actually human so you can talk to them for the lap. Sato and Pagenaud are my favorites so far, they were both really chatty and thoroughly enjoyed doing the parade laps.

No, that's frowned upon.

I took Stefano Coletti for a lap around Auto Club Speedway in my Vette vert on the drivers introduction lap just before the start of the last IndyCar race there -- all Vette verts. He was friendly, but kind of quiet. He liked Big Red, my Vette. Just before that I met Mario Andrettii and Jay Leno. Mario had just taken Jay for a spin in the two seat IndyCar.Jay said to Mario "You scared the shit out of me!"
