Blue and orange is just about my favorite color combination, but they look so much better when one color dominates and the other is used as an accent color, like the old MCI car or even the McLarens.

Demelo and Fittipaldi officially splitting the 19 for the year, with Paysafe staying the sponsor all year. Demelo will take 10 races (assumedly the non-ovals?) and Fittipaldi the other 7 (assumedly the ovals plus one more?) http://www.racer.com/indycar/item/147254-coyne-officially-confirms-claman-de-melo-fittipaldi Coyne has two sponsored cars, what is this world coming to.

Still 10 races available at Juncos and 11 at Shank if you gotta check!!! Speakin of Indy, I think we pretty much already have 33 depending on how stuff plays out. The 24 full timers and part timers, plus Stefan Wilson, Munoz, Pippa, Helio, Lazier (says hes coming again), 3rd for Schmidt (confirmed not Danica), D&R is planning on 2, and Danica all confirmed. Assuming Danica doesn't land in one of those D&R seats, thats 33. Thats assuming nobody else adds any either. Bumping? Maybe?? Also Marco's colors for 5 races, including Indy and Long Beach:

If there is any bumping at all it's just gonna be like 2015, where Lazier didn't really even but in a serious attempt to qualify.

Good job ABC, you immediately realized you had gently caress all for commentators to do Indycars so you just rehired the guys you laid off.  At least we have Bestwick.

Press release has Demelo doing the first 3 road courses and Fittipaldi doing the first 3 ovals, doesn’t mention the rest of the year. Somebody on Wikipedia shows all the dates and they are apparently mixing it up on the back end of the season though.

I'm hoping he winds up doing something at NBC if ESPN gives up IndyCar.

We don't have aerokit supply issues anymore (I hope?) but we still only have two engine manufacturers. I also wonder how many raceable DW12 tubs even exist today. Even the big teams aren't replacing them on the regular. KingShibby posted:Bestwick is a good guy and is definitely the star of that broadcast booth.

IOwnCalculus posted:Yeah. We don't have aerokit supply issues anymore (I hope?) but we still only have two engine manufacturers. There are plenty of DW12 tubs sitting around now, but the 'raceable' part is the problem. The tubs got reinforced and rebaked this offseason, but a bunch of teams bought new tubs instead due to some small weight savings. So there are spare tubs out there, but any team that buys one would need to send it in to get rebaked, and I think Dallara is pretty much maxed out at the moment so that might take a while. https://twitter.com/marshallpruett/status/961672825097474049 Looget all them trailers and new teams. V cool. Season is almost here!
