The 2011 Canadian GP was epic both in length and in the finish. Jenson Button's best race.
Last lap spoiler if you've never seen it:

OK let's recap Saturday with IndyCar.
First, IndyCar [link=(https://x.com/IndyCar/status/1796866894294593585)]tweeted "Happy Pride Month"[/link] to start the day. Yes, this is relevant to what came later.
During practice, Santino Ferrucci had a tangle with Kyle Kirkwood (see video above). Afte...

Watching qualy. This Detroit circuit is so ridiculously rough. :lol: The cars are bouncing and sliding all over the place, it's quite entertaining. It's a wonder that these guys can do this for a full race distance....

[quote]Even with the tire wall, that seems crazy dangerous, no?[/quote]
Yeah I think that was half joking. There are two problems:
1. Going full speed through the tunnel and transitioning from the downhill portion back to the flat part at 180 mph would not go very well. :lol:
2. Even if they ...

IMO Danny would have a load of fun in IndyCar. All of the F1 drivers who come over say they love the pure racing, and the cars are more fun to drive. I think he would do fine. But AFAIK, he hasn't shown any interest in IndyCar.
I think going to NASCAR would be a mistake, he would be an anonymous ...

[quote]Yeah, so what his four wheels were off the track? He already had the pass completed.[/quote]
If the pass was truly completed, he wouldn't have had to put four wheels off the track.

I think KMag cut the chicane to pass Yuki. All he got was a small time penalty, and Yuki was unable to p...

Almost, but not 100%. Dampers are open to development. This is a not-visible but key way for teams to differentiate performance. This probably gives Penske an edge since he's had a racing shoc...
