2023 Sonsio Grand Prix at Road America

The decision by the #11 to stay out during caution only to pit a few laps later seems incomprehensible. Bold strategy, let's see if it works out for them.

Looks like they hit 190 MPH three times here now. Just wicked.

Don’t know what that was supposed to accomplish. He had a solid top 10 going before that and now he’s pretty well cooked.

Herta doesn't have enough P2P left to hold on.

Palou has taken an extra step this season. Next level.

 

[SneakySwede]

Looks like Palou is tracking to get another win. Wow! What a can he has opened up on the field lately

 

[gnomesayin]

Really good stuff on the track. Booth and producers somehow caught off guard that the pass was coming.

 

[gnomesayin]

The #26 blew the race from the pits and outsmarted themselves. I mean, it could have somehow worked out in their favor if they got a caution immediately after pitting, but there is no reason to try to undercut the field from the lead.

I mean, honestly, I _am_ kinda shocked we didn't get our customary Rick Ware Racing Caution from Sting Ray Robb.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Phew. I was worried Robb would make a whole race without going off.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Glad they cleaned it up in the second half. Eventful and entertaining race, IndyCar has delivered week in and week out this year.

I would not be surprised if Palou started getting F1 interest from teams not named McLaren.

 

[SneakySwede]

Hey, Graham is up to 14th! That's not a win, but it's a step forward.

Pretty solid performance (11th) from Graham today. Definitely something to build on

Delayed watching on DVR after the F1 race and just getting to when they showed the Power/Dixon Saturday crash.

The thing that impressed me most was the little portable or mobile Emojis that Will Powet apparently keeps handy to use when needed.

I thought he was going to flip a bird with each hand at Scott Dixon, but then like a magician he flipped the two Emojis instead.

Palou has been on another planet lately.

Pretty good day for the team with Lundgaard also in 7th. Too bad Jack just always seems to have something go wrong.

...How are you passing not for position? Is that just leaders going by lap cars?

Yes

The Indy race was better than the F1 race. I watched the Indy race and checked the F1 race for the start and a couple times during Indy commercials (the F1 presentation was weird, the race in a window with some guys in smaller windows shooting the breeze). There was a lot going on in the Indy race but I thought running cars off the track seems to be more prominent larely.

That sounds like the alternate presentation with Ricciardo and Will Arnett. The main broadcast was on ABC. It didn’t sound like the simulcast did too hot, it supposedly fell well short of the Monday Night Football Manningcasts.

That reply tweet is one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen. Holy moly take his tv away.

I recorded this and started to watch it Sunday night. Boring. I'll watch some more but won't waste my time if it doesn't get better.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Driving standards are a bit lacking today.

Just watched it and yeah, that was sloppy.

Mr. Grosjean may be well served by considering other forms of racing.

That's the dumbest thing I've read about racing since NASCAR introduced stage breaks. Too many passes?

I still believed in the guy at the start of the season and still want to because he’s still very quick, but at age 37 is making the same poor mistakes. I’d even say he’s regressed as far as being error-prone this year. I’m also really skeptical about Lamborghini signing he and Kvyat as factory drivers for next year’s LMDh program…that’s a good way to tear up both of your cars.

I could get it if he had watched an old Texas pack race or slingshot Indy 500 or something, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone say any road course race in any series anywhere had too much passing before.
