I'm not sure it's a good idea but does anyone think there's any likelihood Carlin's 2nd/3rd cars will be the McLaren entries? I just wonder if there's a historic connection between the teams with them bringing Lando Norris through to F1

So does a Harding/McLaren combination, with either 2 or 3 cars, one for Alonso, one or maybe two for herta and o'ward not make a lot of sense? Still a loose tie in with andretti too.
IndyCar could be a great landing spot for Ocon, and if he and Alonso are in indycar next year, the grid is incredible. Over ten deep in championship caliber drivers. (Might be without them, too fwiw). |

Marco ain't all that bad. Just that the championship caliber drivers goes about 10 deep, so top ten in points is really an accomplishment, though it is only midfield. |

There won't be a third manufacture. Who should that be?

Looks like Ferrucci will get the other Coyne seat.

IndyCar executives Stephen Starks and Tony Cotman came to Punta del Este to meet Fernando Cáceres Hernández (TC2000 / Formula E race promoter) and his son Juan Ignacio "Fufy" Cáceres (Champ Car one-timer), as well as Enrique Ant?*a (Maldonado governor and presidential candidate).

Seems more and more F1 drivers are considering making a switch across the pond. Must be the Alonso effect

It's also cheaper for a team to set up and go IndyCar racing than racing in F1 and there isn't the stringent criteria required by F1. From a driver's point of view, there will be allure of the Indy 500, plus iconic US tracks like Laguna Seca, Mid-Ohio and Road America, which haven't been butchered to meet F1'a requirements. |

And also there’s no need for DRS in indycar, it has close racing throughout

The Maldonado governor has made some wild claims: IndyCar hasn't raced outside United States over 30 years, and the race will be held in early 2019. Par for the course.

IndyCar still race in Canada. However the last race outside North America was the 2011 Indy Japan 300, at Motegi, which was won by Scott Dixon.

Actually, the São Paulo Indy 300 was last held in 2013.
