    Victor_RO commented on the post, 2012 Indianapolis 500 preview: America’s great race gets a new look 14 hours, 46 minutes ago

    Slight correction: race director nowadays is another BB, Beaux Barfield, former race director for the ALMS between 2008 and 2011. Barnhart (or TGBB as he’s “affectionately” known, taste the irony) has been removed […]

    @SteveMovieVoice Bourdais isn’t running a Chevy engine though, he’s running a Judd (from now on I’m no longer calling it a Lotus engine).

    Team policy, and the fact that Lotterer and McNish were selected as designated drivers for the two e-tron R18s when the entries were submitted (this is the third year of this rule I believe). Those drivers can’t […]

    @matt90 Impossible, they’ve already established their driver line-ups.

    @Girts The crash was already being reported about more than a week ago by sportscar journalists, so it’s not whitewash. Latest word is […]

    Victor_RO commented on the post, Which of Paul Ricard’s 167 tracks should F1 use? 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    Either 1A or 1A-V2. Going with 1A-V2 because of seeing it in action with the LMS cars for the last three years.

    Victor_RO replied to the forum topic IndyCar St Petersburg grid: Power on pole in the group Group logo of IndyCarIndyCar 2 months ago

    Bourdais was about 1-2 tenths faster than Tagliani I believe, but he spun at the end of the qualifying group he was in and caused a red flag, and they deleted his fastest laptime for that as far as I’m aware.

    Victor_RO replied to the forum topic Delta Wing car in the group Group logo of Endurance RacingEndurance Racing 2 months ago

    Reported laptimes from the car’s two days of testing at Sebring (after the race) put it at this moment somewhere in the middle of the LMP2 field on pace (1:52s-1:53s reported on consistent stints). Considering […]

    Too late, Alex Zanardi already claimed the Roadrunner for his own helmet about 15 years ago. :)

    Onboard video. It actually looks really fast in fast corners. Also, interestingly, it’s a sequential shift with a stick and NOT paddles.

    Rumours say it’s actually the WTCC engine that RML run in their cars. It’s badged by Chevy there, but it’s entirely RML-built and can be badged by other OEMs for other uses.

    @keithcollantine

    Well… since there is a list of teams and drivers on Twitter for F1, GP2, IndyCar, should there be one for sportscar racing as well? I suspect so…

    I’ll post a list of the accounts I’m […]

    Invitational unclassified entry. So it’s not in any class, it’s not eligible for any trophies, it’s an ”experimental” entry.

    Mansell’s first attempt at an oval was Phoenix and he crashed in practice… but as for his first race on an oval, it was the ’93 Indy 500. And he could have won but for messing up a restart and getting passed by […]

    P.S. The aforementioned people (Pagenaud, Newgarden and Barrichello) will be all competing for the Rookie of the Year honours at the 500 though. :)

    I’m not sure Simon qualifies for that gong any longer as he raced 3 (or 4?) times last year as a substitute for various people.

    Or rather “when the ACO mandated a 40cm narrower rear wing (1.6 m instead of 2 m) back in 2009″.

    Victor_RO commented on the post, Williams to supply hybrid system for Audi Le Mans car 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    It’s not a rule, but the swan-neck rear wing pillars have proved to be more aerodynamically efficient than regular pillars when they narrowed the rear wing by 40 cm.

    It’s not a three-wheeler, it’s not a Robin, and as we can see, it turns at speeds far higher than the Robin. :P
