Love the new series name, not a bad way to kick the series off. Too bad TSN isn't covering it AFAIK.

you can watch the races live for free on IndyCar.com
Good first outings for a lot of the drivers and good rebounds for some of the experienced drivers like Luyendyk and Festa who have had disappointing results as of late. |

Team E's Bobby Wilson set a new lap record at the speedway despite finishing 6th. Incredible battle between the top 6 drivers.

Antinucci, Battistini, and Matos are right where one would expect them to be, considering their track records...Jeff Simmons should be able to keep up with the younger drivers, considering how long he spent at a top-flight team in the big show...The rest of the top ten from fifth back is looking quite competitive...I wish I knew more about this Ana Beatriz girl, she seems to have come from nowhere. The existence of a Brazilian swimsuit model with the same name complicates investigative searches.

Ana was previously known as Bia Figuerio and raced in Braziian F.Renault and SudAmF3.This seems to bee a brazilian thing.Senna dropped the daSilva and the other Brazilian female F3 driver became just 'Suzane'

Antinucci will try his hand at Prototype Racing this weekend in the Rolex series at Watkins Glen. He will be running with series veteran Burt Frisselle. Should be interesting to see as he has shown interest in pursuing that side of racing.

Franck Perera, former F1 test driver, has signed on with Guthrie Racing to compete in the remaining Indy Lights races. A slight step backwards for the 23 year old pilot, one of many that we have seen recently. Still ..most likely a solid move for the Frenchman.

Guthrie is hoping to eventually move to the IndyCar Series, and a 2 car team that includes Sean Guthrie and Perera would be a good option, especially if Perera brings some funding.

Quote:
It certainly SOUNDED like a good race because the trackside commentators were getting excited talking about some side by side racing, however the TV director decided we needed to watch the two leaders being spread out and doing nothing. Between the TV director hiding the action and the race director putting out the caution for harmless spins when the cars were towards the back of the field and well away from danger, the race suffered in excitement levels with only small sparks of action. |
