If his IMSA class paid the same points as the big boys, then he does have the points, but I don't see why a slower class would get the same number of SL points as the frontrunners. Apparently he does have the points as he also has another 7 points from a F4 championship that he competed in in 2016. Which means that all Red Bull need to do is give him 2 races in an STR before the end of this season (COTA and AHR, anyone?) and it won't matter that he loses his 2016 points next year as he would be renewing his Superlicense as opposed to applying or reapplying. |

NBC is uploading each chapter of the film to YouTube on every Tuesday & Thursday It's also uploaded for on-demand viewing on the NBC Sports App if your in the USA & have a cable subscription. - Sounds like IndyCar will be announcing their next move in cockpit protection device (aeroscreen) development next week |

TK not even the old man of the series anymore. Quote: If things go to plan, it will be the first of many for Team Strange in IndyCar, with team owner John Stange Jr. having confirmed a desire to run a six-race program in tandem Servia next season ahead of a full-time entry in 2021. https://racer.com/2019/05/23/servias-ca ... ed-reboot/ |

Hard to say who is behind all of these bad decisions but seems like Zak Brown is pretty inept. What exactly has he done other than sink McLaren further and further into this bottomless hole?

Quote: McLaren Racing CEO Brown believes that the team needs to understand how to get the 500 right before taking on an expanded IndyCar program I think it's the other way around, Mr Brown. To be honest I'm kind of tired of all this foreplay with McLaren. Either do it or don't, just stop sending press releases or whatever every week just to get people talkinf. |

I hope Alonso understands he doesn't have time to wait for McLaren to "get it right" with these half-assed programs and breaks ties with McLaren so then he can join another team. Unless he is still seriously thinking about returning to F1. |

O'Ward has now taken Iowa and Gateway off his schedule, presumably as oval racing is no longer a skill he needs to develop for his future. Carlin will still run 2 cars. https://www.autosport.com/indycar/news/ ... oval-races |

I kinda think that Red Bull should have gone with Herta, the guys constantly up there |
