Indy 500 to be held in 2020 at 25% capacity, ticket sales to end July 24; mask-wearing mandatory
https://www.indystar.com/story/sport...24/3287972001/ that's about 87K folks to be allowed on the premises |

It would be nice to have more details, but this is the most encouraging news about Zanardi so far.

You really should make it a priority to go but not this year. It's about 14 hours driving time from Baton Rouge to Indy. When I was younger we used to do that amount of driving, straight through, to go fishing! |

It's good spectators will be allowed to go. It no doubt adds to the greatest spectacle in racing. We'll no doubt see the dedicated ones there again

Anyone going needs to make the decision by Friday:
https://www.indianapolismotorspeedwa.../ticket-prices Looks like a bunch are sold out already. Reserved ticket pricing ranges from 65 to 130, but 35 for Gen Admin. You can get practice days and quali days for 15 and 20 respectively. |

I don't follow NASCAR, so I did a quick look up on Wikipedia. He started on motorcycles and then did off roading in buggies and trucks, then moved to the ASA and Busch Series in 1997 before making his debut in NASCAR in 1998, but no mention of open wheel.

Neither do I. Portland isn't until September 13 and Laguna Seca is a double header, on the 19th and 20th of September, so hopefully by then the number of Covid cases will have dropped. |

I reckon he should be alright, he’ll adapt quickly to be close to the pace

In this interview he gave at the beginning of the month, he says he just wants to run the road courses. At the time the article was written, the test date was to be 8 July, it's now next Tuesday.

Portland has been cancelled and Mid-Ohio will become a double header. There may also be other changes, with Laguna Seca looking doubtful.
