They're doing the presser now for the freedom 250. The track is up on the site.
>>153795411USA USA USA USA!
>>153795411Okay, so is the start finish straight on 3rd street and then the pitlane comes afterwards? I didn't expect much but, damn.
>freedom doesnt reign >it revs
>>153795577>250 years of freedom.>250 miles of speed.does that mean we are getting a long race? this is going to be fun
penske perfect
>>153795706250 miles around a 1.66mile track would be a 150 lap race.For comparison, the old ChampCar San Jose Grand Prix was a shorter track, did 107 laps, and was still a 1 hour and 45 minute affair.This race could legit end up being two and a half hours easily, big strain on engines and suspension parts.
>>153795577I'd guess the start finish line is mid-way through 3rd street. Putting it in line with the capital building & national mall for some probably cool photos.
https://www.indycar.com/news/2026/03/03-09-dc-track-logo
>>153795706A bit of quick math, if I did it correctly we're look at a 150 lap race
>>153795794I guess that does make sense, gotta have those photo ops.
>>153795785>two and a half hours easily>big strain on engines and suspension parts.>tires>150 lap race thats what I like to hear, near the end of the season. what a year!
>>153795706nah I reckon it will be 250km

>>153795929I need to see that, a B2, and an A10 to really scream 'MURICA

>>153798889So is this fag done racing or what?
>>153805443I expect him to run the 500 this year. The Arco/AmPm sponsorship at JHR was brought by him. Theyve split that up between VK and SRR. Daly is the reserve driver right now. I dont think JHR can afford to dump SRR, especially after he triggered a clause to stay in his seat in the offseason.

>>153815145Indycar is back!
The reality is that Pato can't reach the heights of mexican popularity as Adrian Fernandez unless he manages to get a beer sponsor, Tecate preferably, Modelo is fine too.
>>153816458he's sponsored by tortillas though thats good enough
>>153816458beer and cig cars should be mandatory for the 500

The second half of this episode makes it seem like Rasmussen has attained some godhood level of oval mastery. Which could be true until we see him at the rest of the ovals.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5QwlfBRtWo

>>153820676>Rasmussen has attained some godhood level of oval masteryyes he has and he likes to pass. put him out front at the 500 and let him lap the field. It was a nice conversation. His car was wicked fast in traffic and im still surprised no one on the radio told him to tone it back a hair when going after Power. The Rasmussen/Rossi pairing is interesting. I think Rossi is jealous because he still has speed but also a good teammate and puts his guy over
>>153821078
>>153812076is that Samantha Tan?
>>153817470>No cameras allowed in the trackwhat are they gonna do? take away everyone's phone?

Forgot this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOCv_Q7P8gs
>>153831669All of that in 100 races. Palou is a fucking beast. In 2024 & 2025 he had one finish outside the top 20, and still went on to win the title. He already has his one finish outside the top 20, and needs to have a perfect season, or it could be a Kirkwood/Newgarden/Oward title.
>>153831792this Penske trio is fun. Go Rangers!

>>153835381kek, thanks
Newgarden confirms, Lil Dave is no more, Mid Dave is his new nickname
no cash at the event is bold, maybe im old lol
>>153836741Malukas is going to win multiple races, and choke someone out before the season ends with all these nicknames he hates haha
golf cart ride along https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOBJlnN5Gok
nolans gonna win this race https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsC3BQ1LjZs
>>153837290David called himself that, according to Josef. He only got a pole, so he can't be Big, it was a small achievement so Middle Dave it is.
>>153837452a new nickname every race lmao
>>153837452Cool Hand Malukas
>>153837380
>>153837276I honestly haven't carried cash in like 2 years
>>153837854>2 yearswhich I understand, and will become 4, then 10 and in a blink will be 15+ years. I mean why not though, its a chore, and not all places deal with it anymore. Did you shift to it naturally? Or did they make the ease of electronic payment so convenient that you were funneled towards it? Why ""risk" of carrying cash in public right? >no cashIts not a big deal since this is a sports thread but its interesting seeing where this is going for the race consumer. The digital ID is already at work with the phones being used as the key for most at sporting events. >Dont have a phone? seen as odd and locked out of places. >Carry cash in 2026? seen as outdated and locked out of places. >Have a sponsor but no engine? Unacceptable and locked out by the charters.
>>153838368>IndyNXT >USF Pro 2000>GR Cup four series total racing on the track. this weekend will be amazing
>>153838368Onboards for Arlington
>>153838391>Did you shift to it naturally?I think the main reason is I moved and don't live near any branches for my bank anymore, so I just don't go to the ATM. There's ATMs at the grocery store, but I never know if I'm going to get charged a fee or not so I just don't bother.>>153838404Should've gotten truggs again too
>>153838568Trucks 2-3 street courses a year wouldn’t be the worst marketing move. Go St Pete, Arlington/or Canada, and a west coast street course.
>>153837276>no cameras>no cashwhat else, how much are they stealing from you for a paddock pass? how much are concessions? feels good to be a RoadAmericaChad, I don't understand why people who go to other tracks tolerate this abuse
>>153839772Cuz cattle. The cattle are what will make these new tracks stick around though so we have to deal with this faggy police state bullshit. I sure hope other tracks don’t see this and follow in the coming years
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzTCETGaXM0
>>153839772100 bucks for a paddock passNot sure if I should get one or just get merch
>>153841634forgot pic
>>153841639I’d say the pass, second to last year of the car, all the seats have solid names, and schemes. You could make your own shirt with a marker and wear it
>>153841634The Dangerous Dane. These previews get me hyped up
Acceptable teams to like:>ECR>Ganassi>Rahal>Dale Coyne>Meyer ShankUnacceptable teams:>Penske>Andretti>AJ Foyt>McLarenWhy are you a fan of this team tier:>Dreyer & Reinbold>Juncos
>>153841968Why are those teams are acceptable and unacceptable?
>>153841968>JuncosVeekay is nice.>Dreyer ReinboldI can’t complain about a team willing to prepare a car for the 500.>FoytWhat did they do to you haha they’ve clearly lost a stop not having Penske engineers. Don’t kick em while they’re down lol>Penske >Andretti>McLarenI know why, but with you hating them that does give your liked teams extra juice. I’m holding out for a Siegel win just for the fuck of it
>>153842047Only team I don’t like is Prema. Smug motherfuckers thought they could hang with Dale Coyne and survive… heh nice try Prema
>>153842047>Penske because Roger>Andretti for selling out to private equity>Foyt because fuck Ferrucci>McLaren because I hate the F1 team
>>153842156This could be the last year we see the Andretti name on an Indycar. What would send you over the edge to not watch? For me it would be F1 follow the leader with the new car.
>>153842237Either that or one of the manufacturers drops and it just becomes like Chevy for the entire field
>>153841639lol, that's more expensive than the actual race ticket at RA (which has free paddock access)
>>153842291that makes sense. I dont see how the series would survive if they go down to one supplier in the next gen car
>>153842352>RA has free paddock accessyeah thats fucking legit. that race is untouchable
>>153841968Swap MSR and Foyt. Because while both are F1-esque customer teams, at least one has AJ Foyt and a driver who tries to go crazy whenever they're not getting cucked with setups. The other is just rich radio guy that's been running a customer team basically since the word go.I also don't like Ganassi but that's because I suspect them cheating with TCS in the hybrid, but until proven it's whatever.>>153842237Series drops back down to only one or two ovals in a year, or we get another big group of talentless paydrivers like in the late IRL/early post reunification years which shit up races and kill most strategy. I watched and enjoyed the champcar years as a kid but I don't want to go through that again.
>lost one race
>>153847718>fragile palou
NXT practice now, Indy practice then USF Pro 2000 qualifying https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzBz7hBIZtQ
They’ve got the angles locked in. We’re getting cars jumping this weekend with the bumps and elevation
>favorite driver: townsend bellkek
Show then flying down the straight already
>santuni
>>153849399Looks like they’re saving tires and going to burn the first 3/4 of the practice

Holy fuck it’s rough. I like this track
Straight looks entertaining
2 seconds faster than NXT so far
>robbThis guy SUCKS
>Stingray Billy Jim Bob
Fucking SRR
>>153849399>180 maxPretty weak>StringrayHe is ready
>>153849561Graphic said 190 max, what street course has a faster straight than 180?
>>153849572I thought I saw Rossi top out at 180, but I'm managing a 2 year old. Did he get it to 190?
>>153849561It’s a physical 180. Over 70 laps It’ll produce some good passing. For a new track it could be a lot worse and it’s a long course. It’s fun
Long beach probably goes above 180. I like the bend in that straight and the bends in this one>>153849588Probably not but they are taking it easy for first practice
I can't see Veekay
>>153849596>>153849601For what its worth, its a sustained 180 so it should be pretty interesting to see how they handle it.
>>153849693He just got on the board with a lap
>>153849706The bumps and the bends at a sustained 180 is pretty interesting I agree
>>153849693You motherfucker hahaha
>veekwab
1:35.686 not bad lap times. 4 seconds faster than NXT
SRR or Siegel will clip pit entry
Hauger will be great. Let's have another double top 10 for Coyne
>>153849864I can see it. Hauger understands the tires already
Can they set the revs higher for the straight?
>>153849957Bell mentioned some are geared for 196. They expect a draft to boost it, but I don’t think they expected the elevation and bumps messing with ride heights
>>153849983Dang I don't see them getting close to that
>>153849997Me either. 180 is wicked enough through there without traffic
>iowa >milwaukee Bell lol

1:33.500 by palou. I think someone else grabs the pole but this Palou guy is pretty good
>>153861190Only Scotty can free us from this nightmare.

>>153861937Well, there's been a red flag in every session so far. I suspect Indy qualifying will be pushed 40 minutes too.
>>153862037Thanks for posting. These are fun to view when watching the other series drop laps around. I’m not a big sector guy but have been looking at the back stretch times and speeds. The usual names are up there but all three rookies are really pushing the pace matching Kirkwood. Qualifying is going to be really fast

>>153863762his car is only slightly red
>>153863774SRR has some red
What is this parking lot track?
>>153863804:)
I like the layout so far
>>153863804a street circuit with REAL streets unlike F1's smooth as glass fake streets and fake marinas
>>153863832It’s a keeper. Other series are jealous of it
>>153863834I didn't mention F1, why did you?
>Toyota bannerscome on Toyoda-san, you know you want to join
>>153863804I thought Finns were into rally and racing on bumpy surfaces
>>153863912If it has 2-6 wheels and motor, I am in.
>>153863804Parking lots of the stadiums. It’s bumpy, has elevation changes and the fancy fia parking lot sand paint. I think you’ll like it
>>153863935And if it has one wheel? You’re on it.
>Sting Ray KWAB
>>153863956Fucking 2 seconds slower than everyone else, he needs to go to NXT
>>153863975I heard his practice 1 best time was only a fraction of a second faster than the top IndyNXT practice time lol
hi guys im an /f1/ refugee
>>153864021Welcome, we hate Zak Brown too.
>Zak Brown on TVWell, that's my day ruined.
I like the "top gun" cam but they should have given it a fisheye lens
>>153864021Ello m8>>153863975He finished 2nd in nxt once lol>>153863990It's like he's getting worse already
They should put a camera on the steering wheel so we get to rotate when the driver turns
>>153864021Bring max with you
>>153864070Next gen car with a camera built into the steering wheel
>>153864075Yes free my niggaHe may not know it but he would be so happy here
>>153864042who is the lando norris of indycar that i can direct all my hate towards?
>>153864075soon
OOOOOHHHPPP
>>153864075Has Max ever run the Indy 500?
McLaughlin in the wall
>>153864121Thankfully, nobody.
Scotty ACKKKK
FUCK
O I AM MCLAUGHIN>>153864121Idk he doesn't exist
Hes fucked
>>153864181Never. It’s documented he’s scared of ovals but I think he will get the right push to not be a pussy and come to Indy
>>153864206You'd think he would pretty much have to at some point, not sure how he could finish his long career without attempting it at least once
>>153864229he has a babby now so probably wants more Euro oriented races. He's at the Nurburgring next weekend.
>Hinch talking about a clock>it's not on screencmon Foxalso sector times
>>153864294Small, regional network, please understand.
>>153864229He could wait until he's 40 before doing it like alonso. Maybe they will even have a good car by then
Are all the f1gs gonna start complaining about ovals now?
CAM ON TOOWOOMBA
>>153864229I hope he does it in his “prime” no ifs or any of it to be left. He could also avoid it and cope doing hill climb and rally really well late in his 30s
/f1/ stop jerking off to your boyfriend
How'd that extra warm up lap work gayhal
>>153864343i am an incel
>>153864206No magic cars ir dentists to punch up on here.
>>153864343We really are /f1/ now
>>153864430Nah they wish they had this type of qualifying
Rossi penalty
>>153864564Palou penalty
>poolou
The used hards were fast at st Pete as well
Yeah, the onboards are potato cam and Kirkwood's camera is dark as hell.
Some of the onboards have stutter this season
i hope we get to see a roller coaster in the background at some point
This two thread shit is gay and retarded.
Ericsson from nowhere
PENSKE BTFO
>penskwab
wow
I'm digging the straightaway more than I was yesterday, its punishing them for overcooking it.
>>153864786we are free now. we can post about indycar all we want without getting drowned out by nonsense in the other shithole.
>>153864743That means their body is taking it
>>153864786Thanks for stopping in. Bye now.
HERE WE GO. one lap. one shot. TWGdrettit
>>153864786no uif you don't like it you can git out, seething passive aggressivewannabe janny fuck
>>153864786As much as I like the general, between Nascar and Rally there's not a lot of room for anyone else. Not to mention the 200 differemt sports car leagues that are always happening. Indycar deserves its own general, there are too many divegrass shitpost threads anyway.
I like the one car for the fast 6
>p2 of 2
>>153865025yakeep it this way
CAM ON ROSIE
Strong chance Palou qualifies two seconds faster than power
>>153865046It keeps the tension elevated for a far longer period of time
vamos alejandro!!!
>>153865101also rewards sponsors of fast cars with 1 lap of uninterrupted airtime
zack is here? i dont like him
Patty O'Ward
Palou is about to ruin ericssons day
half a sec man, not even close
>>1538651612 technically, they get a lot during their out lap
whats with americans and rings?? i dont get it
>>153865264you can't wear a trophy
>>153865264They have to make it more like sportsball just because
>>153865284give them a watch
YES
Ericsson is saving his career this season
Ericsson pole
Ericsson very nice! CGR revenge
paloubros..... should we retire?
>>153865301you get one for winning the 24 Hours of Daytonabut wearing multiple watches would be weird
>>153865327I thought he was a chipbabby
>>153865328imagine being the richest IndyCar driver but not even close to the most successful
They should make them two two laps, but second time in reverse order, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, then average
>>153865360Maybe they hire him next season after cutting the bum Palou
>>153865372>inb4 Simpson is richerthat's his dad's money
>>153865352in daytona and lemans i thinkyeah, you can only wear 2 watches>>153865372palou is 12 mill in the hole thanks to zacky
>>153865396Simpson works for his money. Face of Sunoco fuel
Firehawk :)
>>153865407yeah and O'Ward is sponsored by Kit Kat and has a private jet and security guards

>>153865534that covers the entire time of the race. what difference is 1 hour gonna make?
>>153865534>indycars could fly
>>153865585I think they’re trying to avoid having the cars go 190
I regret to inform you that there will be a lap 1 pileup on the straight
>>153865590Imagine a race where they have to maintain a minimum speed and downforce to not get lifted into the sky by a tornado
>>153865645kino
NXT quali now
>inb4 IndyNXT pole is faster than Robb's IndyCar qualifying time
>>153865837Max Sting incoming
Max Taylor will out qualify Scotty Ack
if you've never been to an IndyCar race, the IndyNXT cars sound really good in person. almost better than the Indy cars.
>>153866156Can’t wait to see them in traffic and the strategy used. If I’m in the rear of the field I’m getting creative from the start. There is no way the first lap is clean unless it is
we're into the 1:38's>Scott McLaughlin 1:38.6580
>>153866356Yeah Im really stoked about that layout, l want to see them drive it in anger and see how the passing works
>>153866493Those NXT boys going hard. Really strong field
>>153866547The rookies, Ferrucci, and really everyone should be going hard or driving pissed. We haven’t seen the full tire fall off yet. Someone could choose to bully and try and set the pace to control the first stop. That pit entry is a little hairy and a place for SRR to fuck up. With 70 laps we are getting some action
>>153861438USF Pro 2000 race 2 about to start
>>153867030why is the video so dark?
>>153867524Clouds?

>>153868381wrongcope
>>153868381You responded to five different people. Thanks for returning though to continue seething like a worked up faggot. Go to the general and cry as you have do for how many weeks? Go cry in soccer threads as I have recommended in the past? They have “split” threads. Go cry to them >look for thread I hate>type words in thread I hate>do it for weeks Cry more you fucking faggot. It’s called rent free
>>153868614>You responded to five different people. Screen caps?Hint, you won't. >look for thread I hate >type words in thread I hate >do it for weeks >Faggot seethes
>>153868965Like I told you I talked to you once, and four others chimed in. You’re a faggot so I doubt you have an ability to read a room. This thread isn’t for you. Go to the general and cry or better yet try soccer.

>>153872685>>153874832>>153876888It’s going to be a wild race
They could run this as a night course. Great track
What driver ran four or more stops at St Pete? Rossi and SRR.
>Zak goes to murrica>Both McLels fail to start in ChinaGood to see vile hebrew sorcery focusing on murrica.
>2 crashes on the caution lapGood to see the next NXT class is all ready for primetime
>>153881779It’s going to be a fun 15 minute sprint!
WHAT A FUCKING PASS MAX TAYLOR IS THE SHIT HAHAHA
1 bong or 2 bongs till start? Flashscore is fucking useless for this mickey mouse colonial racearound
>>1538821211 bong
Good racing when green, bodes well for the main event
>>153882130Obrigado
There is a good crop of drivers being molded
Those dastardly 18 and 19 year olds
>JerruhGod damn it this is my Jerruh off time
I've contained myself too much. Georgia is looking gorgeous today.
>>153882779Grid walk now lots of legs out. Life is good
shitters ruined the end of the race
>>153885554Was fun to see the NXT race and Indycar race share the same passing location. Siegel, Mick and Robb are something else they seem lost on the track.
https://racer.com/2026/03/15/kirkwood-outduels-palou-for-arlington-gp-win
>>153885632too early to say for Schumacher but Robb and Siegel are confirmed shitters that need to fuck off to LMP2and Grosjean needs to stay fucked off
https://racer.com/2026/03/15/early-season-races-displaying-depth-of-indycar-team-strength
>>15388624620th-25th in points after todays race>Ferrucci>Grosjean>Rasmussen >SRR>Siegel >SchumacherChevy didn’t lead a lap today. Since they’ve taken over the Indycar side of data, all Chevys have SUCKED on everything but ovals.
>>153886352For Schumacher I don’t know what more he needs to learn. He knows the car is heavier and slower, so he has to put it together. Maybe he can do something at Barber before heading back to street courses. Siegel is young enough he could’ve saved his name by leaving before the season, but now I don’t think we’ll see him in full time again. Robb could be fast but he can also be slow I try not to be too hard on SRR he gets a lot of shit lmao
>>153886352Grosjean is a good marker though. You can see who has and hasn’t improved pre hybrid to post hybrid running around him. He is exposing the field just right to get some big changes for 2027>Siegel>Robb>Grosjean Three seats that’ll likely be open after the season. McLaren has to get a real driver in the 6. Do they make a run at Newgarden? Andretti has some NXT drivers that could make a push into the other DCR car so McLaren is behind either way.
>>153886246Kirkwood almost hit 194 on the backstretch at his fastest today. The only other driver to hit 193 was Malukas.
I still believe Markham will deliver a better race, Arlington was fun for the drivers, but the middle part felt like a drag with Andretti fucks up in between.
>>153886246>Fastest lap of the day? Scott Dixon. He sits 12th in points after finishing 8th today. I’m not counting him out of the title yet. That guys a machine>Where did McLaughlin finish? 11th after starting the race at the rear and is 5th in points heading into Barber.>Drivers to win at Barber in the fieldPower (2)Newgarden (3)OWard (1) McLaughlin (2)Palou (2)
>>153888712It’s going to be another fast one. Maybe a first time winner grabs it or the Street King lol. NXT won’t be there but 2000, and Pro 2000 will be so we will have good comps for the main race. That’ll be the second of five dates in August and who knows what the championship looks like by then. Every turn looks wild if you go to maps and track it out. 8,9,10 has been worked on compared to street view
you can see some of the construction at Markham in Google Earthlooks like another split pit lane
>>153889694I don’t mind the split lane and allows for the wider shots from above. I hope they put some banking into turn 9
Good weekend of Indycar
>>153887849Three different pole winners, three different winners all through three races. As Power coming off a podium into qualifying could be a pole win
>>153786999Once the Palou problem is dealt with we will have Complete (Andretti)Global Saturation
https://racer.com/2026/03/16/ruzewski-overseeing-andretti-global-s-big-flex
>>153888518Mick will be a changed man after May, but I can only hope he'll do better in the rest of the ovals. He needs to prove himself in the road courses.
>both McLarens were in the top ten>er... two of the three were
>>153899116I hope so. The RLL cars are right there along with the Foyt cars with the ability to sneak into the top 12. Collet had a nice weekend, Schumacher has to beat Siegel lol.
>>153900821Siegel is getting dumped after Indy unless he fucking wins it lmao
