Very curious with them going to Phoenix and the aero pack.

That was a pretty hard hit, took his time getting out of the car.

Hinchcliffe has stuffed it in the wall now, looks similar to Sato.

Hinch just had a big one as well.

Rear wings breaking, that's dangerous.

Author:  Chris A [ Fri Apr 01, 2016 9:02 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2016 Desert Diamond West Valley Phoenix Grand Prix

Yeah, those two guys made it back without wrecking but that's a bit of extra debris potentially flying around that everyone could really do without.

big hit from Munoz...

Post subject:  Re: 2016 Desert Diamond West Valley Phoenix Grand Prix

I'm beginning to wonder about the status of the race this weekend. This is a bit alarming.

Munoz looks quite shaken. I'm not sure he'll be fit to race tomorrow.

Author:  pending [ Fri Apr 01, 2016 10:14 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 2016 Desert Diamond West Valley Phoenix Grand Prix

All 3 lost it in T1, and (not trying to suggest anything) all Hondas,

As PT said, Munoz seemed quite out of it as he slid down the track...

Edit: Now RHR adding downforce....

It's Honda. Both rear wings were Honda too.
