Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
The Captain is chasing Rossi.
If he goes to Penske that would be awful for INDYCAR.
Although, I would assume Andretti would move Colton Herta over and possibly look at Pato O’ward.Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
This Rossi stuff is going to be interesting.
Would be terrible for both Indycar and Andretti Autosport to lose him to Penske. With Rossi in his prime AA has inserted itself into the Penske/Chip battle. Which has been great for Indycar.
Speaking of Chip, he wants him too but we'll see how that goes. NAPA is going to have a say in things as well and Honda... you wonder if that helps get Chip into the conversation given the Penske relationship with Chevy. Meanwhile, Dixon is aging. Rosenquist has had an interesting year with some solid wreckage which Chip hates. Rossi could breathe life into CGR for a good while. Penske isn't going anywhere with Newgarden in that stable for a long time.
There's a lot of talent in the series but true elite young talent that is can't-miss... it's few and far between for now. Newgard and Rossi. 3 teams. One will be left out. Absolutely cannot have Roger own both. Herta looking like he can and will be in that category but I'm not comfortable putting him there yet (and my God do I hate everything about this Harding/Steinbrenner team).Last edited by Nick Papagiorgio; 06-25-2019, 03:00 PM.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

Speaking of F1, how do you make overtaking easier without reducing downforce drastically. And how do you reduce downforce drastically without major changes to the Formula.?MTU: Three time NCAA champions.

Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
Pretty unhappy with Max getting no penalty today. He was the fastest, he would have won regardless, but he did not need to purposefully run Leclerc off the road. It;s just that max seems to think that since it's him he can do it, and the FIA lets him. Then if someone does it back to him as happened last year, he ends up in a shouting/shoving match in some one's garage.MTU: Three time NCAA champions.

They have taken podium spots away from Max before. COTA. Monaco. It's not like he's totally immune.
I'm mixed about whether he should have gotten a penalty. I like what one of the commentators said. At a certain point, the driver getting passed had to acknowledge he lost the corner. And it appeared Leclerc acknowledged he lost the corner before he got hit.Russell Jaslow

Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
Modern day F1 couldn’t handle Senna if this move by Max caused them so much consternation.
I think it was good tough racing. I also think Vettel (who I don’t care for at all) should not have been penalized at the prior race.Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

Originally posted by manurespreader View PostYes I know, but Erickson was also commenting and he said that max could and should have left room. The only reason he went off the left side of the road there was to push Leclerc off. I would have done what the stewards did but I'm not happy about it and I don't think they are either. it makes it a lot harder to punish anyone else who does that. Why else would it take 3 hours to decide.
They were calling in witnesses for statements this time, and they had to wait till all the post-race responsibilities were completed.Russell Jaslow

Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
I agree with letting the result stand. Verstappen had his steering all the way to the right and did not make any move to release the tension to drift wide. It isn't, and shouldn't be, a penalty every time two cars touch. Vettel's penalty previously was also crap.
Even the Ferrari principal admitted that the incident should not have been a penalty, although current rules allow it to be considered for such. The rules need to be clarified and reworded.Scott Biggar

So I would have let the results stand but honestly, he deserves a good yelling at.

Re: Open Wheel Racing 2018- with less winglets.
Not sure if anyone has followed the circus side show going on in F1. Rich Energy abruptly terminated sponsorship. In a tweet. Then the rest of the BOD tried to take it back. Now Haas is asking WT....?
