Thanks for the heads up.

Ericsson's head shot in the timing tower is downright demonic.

[FLB]

Dixon may have caught the wall.

[StraightEdge]

It's practice but a rare mistake from Scott Dixon

[jonpollak]

That was not something I’d ever think he would do…!!

[StraightEdge]

Looks like Scott pushing the limits and found it places it can never go

[ArchieTech]

Thought that was Dixon heading for the wall again when it hopped over a bump there

[jonpollak]

Some WOW moments here in Practice 2

Yeah. They said on IndyCar Radio the track surface is worse than expected. Lots of teams are being caught by surprise.

[jonpollak]

Qualy Time.
Hope all y’all in the USA have FS 2

Will Power brushed that wall Scott Dixon hit

May weather came early. This overcast is common in So Cal in May and June: "May Gray" and "June Gloom"

[StraightEdge]

Herta overpushed it and broke the toelink. Yet he advances

[FLB]

Power OUT.

Both Will Power and Josef Newgarden eliminated after first round of qualifying

[ArchieTech]

Nice compilation of close calls with the wall there

Shaping up to be a long year.

Ahhh forgot to check if it was on another channel, just saw it wasn't on Sky F1 yet.

I'm not sure why Sky need to show a re-run of the qualifying session that literally finished an hour before 

 

Anyway, IndyCar we go

Good job from the Prema’s

Haha, Ferrucci in the runoff area of Turn 9 angrily waving his fist for all to see.

Lundgaard found the tire barriers

[OvDrone]

Everyone: How many races do I want to watch ?

This weekend: Yes.

[red stick]

Very sudden stop for Lundgaard.

[Afterburner]

Why is Siri announcing the Fast Six???

[OvDrone]

Marcus Ericsson - the other Andretti driver.

[FLB]

Marcus Ericsson - the other Andretti driver.

And (still) the only one of them who has his likeness on the Borg-Warner.

[StraightEdge]

Andretti starts 1-2 with Kyle Kirkwood on pole with Colton Herta next to him

[FLB]

Andretti front row, followed by Palou and Frozenqvist.

Ack! Stop saying "him and I!"

Jupiter Man does it. We'll see if he converts it to a win tomorrow - cheers.

So weird that they still have not managed to get some meaningful timing info on the screen during qualifying. 

[jonpollak]

I ignore the tv graphics and use indycar.com

I was thinking the same--got to think at this point it is just not a priority.

It should be. A ticking clock is what qualifying is all about.

[Afterburner]

We’ll see how May goes, but I’m starting to get the feeling that a change of scenery would be useful for Newgarden. Maybe to the 9 if it coincides with Dixon calling it a day? Or would he be a better fit at McLaren?

[Jim Thurman]

I was thinking the same--got to think at this point it is just not a priority.

I feel confirmed in my belief that it is a production decision, that they feel it adds "more drama."

 

And, no, I do not agree.
