So is Carlin still a thing? I’ve not heard anything other than ex drivers linked with other teams.
As far as Palou goes, good luck to him, he’s far from the worst person to ever be in a coyne. It’s a shame about hinch, but this sort of thing happens in all series when slightly underperforming, e.g. hulkenberg |

I like the changes overall. It sounds like we'll all have the info as to who has what left but only at the start of each lap. I'm sure the better engineers can figure out from telemetry when the driver is on it. But that's better than the bar constant Penske team radio updates about usage. Let the driver manage more on track

Well that fun track limits subject has reared its head in Indy as well. New timing loop to be installed at the exit of Turn 19 at COTA, it will only record cars to the inside of the corner. Laps in qualifying will require being inside the loop to keep the lap, offenses in race will require video review. Being forced wide or wheel to wheel racing does not sound like it will be penalized.

Perhaps a good sign for Juncos racing's participation in 2020 Indycar?
One can hope! https://www.facebook.com/juncosracin...79143505442763 |
