Interesting grid. Bourdais stuck so far at the back will provide some excitement, but Power looks unbeatable already, or he just had that car hooked up extremely well.

Pre-race coverage is underway on Eurosport 2.

First time I've seen any video of the track. I like how they have incorporated several elevation changes into it.

The onboard lap now is good but the bit they did just before (where the car accelerated and stopped at each corner) wasn't great...

Seems the race weekend at Vegas is one Graham Rahal will want to forget rather quickly.

How many cars do we reckon will finish the race?

I go for a (pessimistic) 9....

Halliday also has problems.

Problems for Halliday. Down to 15 cars on the first lap already?

Why does Jani seem to have the Chinese flag by his name?

Anything to do with the fact Switzerland is CH on number plates etc and the Americans don't know CH is Switzerland?

Sorry FIRE, didn't see your post! We're back to yellow with Figge having spun.

Sigh. This is the huge downside with having a timed race, the risk of yellow flag laps stealing lots of valuable race time.

Rahal needs to learn that other drivers might want to use the race track as well. Driving into the wall just cos someone ahead of him is overtaking = poor tactics.
