2024 Bommarito Automotive 500 @ Gateway

[Speedbowl14]

Oooo McLaughlins on board is kinda damning towards Newgarden, imo

 

[Charlie Spencer]

This would be much easier to adjudicate with the help of the GEICO Restart Zone.

No. Just ... just no.

 

[FLRacingFan]

He just flicked off his teammate walking back to pit road….that guy is still in there

He’s always been a dawg, just not the on-track menace he used to be…until this year once again.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Poor Malkuas is torn up about his wreck. He’ll be back running up front

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Malukas did a good job of keeping it together.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Damn, David was close to tears.
This one would've meant so much after what he went through this year.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Malukas is justifiably crushed.

Either of the last two incidents should’ve been penalty-worthy for the Penskes, imo.

This is the 4th Indycar race I’ve watched this year after I watched the Indy 500 because of Larson. I can’t stand Will Power, and Penske as a whole just comes off as the Joe Gibbs racing of Indycar so I root against them. Newgarden is an insanely talented driver, but can’t get behind Penske.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Herta blocked the $hit outta Linus

For my money the best series in America. Legit my favorite, I never post on here during races because I don’t want to miss the action. I’m a Ganassi fan since CART but Herta is my guy. Insanely talented.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Don't hand me 'under review'. You had ten minutes of red to do any review

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

They’ll wait till Weds to tell us of penalties

 

[donthaveanickname]

Fantastic moves by Linus there at the end. If Ganassi downsizes to three entries he's the young driver who deserves to keep his seat.

Another reminder that Kyle Novak and Max Papis are effectively useless up there in race control.

Gateway is Newgarden’s personal track

I’m having a lot of fun getting into Indycar. Pato and Herta are my favorites.

Gotta pull for him.

I think he’s probably out at CGR (thinking the third will be Simpson) but I hope he finds a seat somewhere in the series. Overall a tough rookie season, but two solid podium runs in there too.

My wife is a fan of the Hitachi car but I can’t figure out why.

Yeah I read somewhere Linus doesn't bring any money, Armstrong brings money for half a season and Simpson brings money for a full season.
And that sucks.

Damn near any oval is. He and Penske have to be salivating at the Milwaukee doubleheader weekend.

I was in their rail and mass transit division for 30 years. Did it ever get me tix? Oh, Hell no! I did score Martinsville luxury box when Sprint was trying to get our cell business.

 

[donthaveanickname]

First ever Top 10 for Sting Ray Robb!

 

[FLRacingFan]

LOL Herta is the only guy penalized. Go figure.

 

[Efisher131]

Penalize Herta but not Power after he tries running a guy into the grass? Ok

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Herta blocked the $hit outta Linus

Penalized!

 

[FLRacingFan]

Penalized!

That was a pretty big block for sure, but he lost the spot anyways. Not sure I would’ve called that, especially after letting Penske get away with the previous two incidents.

 

[gnomesayin]

Would have been more interesting to see how the fuel stuff would have played out without the late carnage, but the race was a lot better than expected.

It's been a loooooong time since strategy calls had me that flummoxed!

I've been having problems with Penske running a team in the series he owns ever since the push to pass scandal earlier this season. Every questionable caution or penalty call immediately leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Power running Malukas into the grass was egregious in itself

 

[donthaveanickname]

Let's just say this, it got a little chaotic at the end but this race was much much better than expected, there was plenty of action throughout the field.

I was throughly entertained 8/10

 

[gnomesayin]

Power is about as entitled and sympathetic as Austin Dillon lately.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I’d love to see this become a true night race again someday, but that probably isn’t in the cards while FOX is carrying every race. But this was a much better-than-anticipated race and encouraging for Milwaukee in two weeks. Badly needed after how Iowa played out.

I’m not sure how much Will feels like he has left in the tank, but I’d be curious to know if any of this can be attributed to David being positioned to take the 12 car if he performs at Foyt. He’s only secure through next year iirc.

 

[Doc Austin]

More reason to add a few more ovals to the schedule.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Whiney biatch

 

[Clutch]

Personally I think Newgarden should have been penalized for that restart
