Yeah, that's coming out of nowhere. Well, best of luck to him - at the very least, Barber is a less challenging place to debut than Long Beach.

Huh. I was sure he had raced before. Who was that Italian driver that did a few races in a couple of different seasons some years ago, who also had a lot of GP2/F2 experience? Not thinking of Pantano. DRACONE doesn't have that GPF2 experience, and Coletti isn't Italian. There is a name that is escaping me here. I remember thinking it was an interesting driver for IndyCar, but he didn't get the results.

I blame that they share the first name!  :p

Coyne's scouts work in mysterious ways.

Ghiotto's a guy who's been looking at North America for a while. He's done some IMSA.

IndyCar denies RFK Jr./Trump car at Indy 500

 

Oh boy. A certain "fan favourite" already tried to race with a Trump livery in F2 so I wonder if it's him again...

From the article:

 

 

 

RACER understands the potential appearance by the 45th president was arranged by the leadership of the exclusive Thermal road racing facility, and was part of the broadcast plans until it was nixed for unknown reasons the night before the Sunday race.

Supposedly it might have been Don Cusick, as he is involved with Thermal and the DRR entries at Indy.

Miami GP shuts down political fundraiser as well.  Good.  Racing should be racing.  Now if we can work on getting the invocation and anthem out and focus on racing.  Or lack thereof.  Or cheating.  Or drivers with mullets.
