Ah yes, during the excitement of May, the IMS' most important month, let's schedule an Indycar race ... at a different track in the Indianapolis area.

There's pros and cons to the road course, but one of the biggest pros is for the ladder. It's a way for them to race in Indy at IMS, and even if it's not the main course, it's still a way to say they raced there.

Keep the current schedule, add Watkins Glen and another mid-summer oval (Michigan?). Boom, done.

Let's be fair, the IMS road race exists primarily to make it still the "month" of May. It's acceptable for that alone.

The only thing I liked (and liked a lot tbh) about the IMS road course was cars blasting full speed through the last corner right handed. Then Michelin ruined it for everyone.

I like the IMS road course because I live in Indy and it’s an easy sell to me. Watching the ladder series race there is always fun, last year in particular was enjoyable. Another excuse to roll over to the track in May is all the justification needed. The worst course IMO, Phoenix, has been dropped already, and I’m pretty happy with the schedule as it stands. The next step for the series should be to add an international race or two, Mexico and Brazil are my top picks, but Australia and Japan would be cool too.

Some cool IndyCar news: Testing new LED panels from a new supplier this week (sounds like its from Cosworth and will integrate into the data loom), hopefully will be ready to go for the year. https://racer.com/2019/01/11/indycar-set-to-try-again-on-led-panels/ Charlie Kimball will be back with Carlin, not sure for how many races though as there are some rumors it will be part time. https://twitter.com/racewithinsulin/status/1083768499154051073 Wickens continues to be the best: https://twitter.com/robertwickens/status/1083812048046157824

I like how Verizon dumped the series and now we have a foreign telecom as the title sponsor instead, lol Can't be any worse than Izod or Verizon were at promotion, and hopefully Penske won't be running two drat near identical Verizon cars at any point this year. I'm loving hyped for race season to start up, bros.
