At least they weren't driving the old car. |

Concrete is apparently now being ground down at the bump. FWIW, I'm marshaling this. I'm at turn 1 and for Indycar, Indy Lights, and ALMS, I'll be Mr. Blue Flag. |

Awesome. Keep an eye out for any wayward safety trucks down there. |

I didn't know until now that the route takes in Camden Yards. |

Well, the grinding work wasn't as helpful as they were hoping, so a chicane is being implemented: http://www.indycar.com/News/2012/08-Aug ... -cure-bump Hopefully they find a way to make it better than the one last year. |

Stupid to remove the chicane. It was there for a reason! |

And thus, they've taken the turn 1 overtaking spot away. Oh well, they should have taken away the bumps earlier. |

Someone's going to hit those tyre stacks at some point. |

They are building kerbs there overnight the tyres were just a temporary thing |

I remember Eddie Irvine saying that at Barcelona 1994 they had a temp chicane, and it changed every lap from it getting nudged. Every lap was a new chicane. I can see that happening here. Except for Viso or Sato, who'll probably just wipe it out. |

That Barcelona chicane was almost funny. I think it was John Watson being very critical of it on the old Eurosport coverage. It's a massive shame to have the chicane put back in here, but I don't know what else they can do. |

Just realised I'm out when this race is on and I can't record it as it's on the "red button". [/first world problem] |

As much as the chicane will make overtaking harder they don't want another San Jose |
