I wonder how long Coyne will keep Gonzalez. He overperformed in that car this weekend I'd say.
 
Connor Daly or Johny Mowlem or Plowman for that Coyne seat, Katherine has had her chances several times,
 
Whatever happened to the Cosworth thing? I remember they had everything set up but just needed a auto company to partner with.
 
Trying to remain on topic here, my understanding was that Chevrolet brought Cosworth back when Ford had their major sell out, did Chevrolet sell Cosworth when it went bankrupt?
 
I wasn't aware that Chevy owned Cosworth at any point. Currently they're owned by Kevin Kalkohven and Gerald Forsythe. Makes it a bit odd that they aren't more involved in Indycar with those two names...

Edit: Kalkohven bought Cosworth from Ford.
 
Ah, well that explains a lot of champ car, agreed with names like that why the cosworth name isn't in north American auto racing
 
Jeff Gordon has announced he will be driving the pace car for the start this year's Indy 500.

So leading the field at the Indy 500 just another thing to add to his resume. He should race!

That's really special that he will be the safety car driver.
 
Yeah and besides, he's retiring from NAPCAR and he said he was thinking about doing different disciplines. Maybe next year with Andretti? :3
 
Wouldn't be Andretti as they're Honda.
 
Ganassi is Honda, and Kurt doesn't have the history with Chevy that Jeff does.
 
Nope. Ganassi is Honda, Andretti is Honda, Penske is Chevy.
 
It could be Penske, I'm not sure his retirement was his decision, more that Chase Elliott was coming for his seat, and this way is far more graceful,

EDIT: Well if the Ganassi website is up to date and correct, Ganassi would be a far more likely direction, considering their Chevrolet ties in Cup series as well,
 
I also keep forgetting Ganassi is Chevy. It doesn't seem right to me.

Was just about to post that link. Oh well, at least I learned indycars use Mclaren ecu's :lol:
 
If I remember correctly, Andretti and Penske were both Chevy 2 years ago. Ganassi then swapped to Chevy last season and Andretti swapped to Honda at the same time.

It's pretty terrible that I didn't noticed that had switched...

Its understandable, other then the miniscule decals there's really no difference between them, id like to say you should look at the bodywork but that never stays on long enough for a still shot in pit lane,

To be fair it was just a small Chevy badge on the engine cover last year with the generic car.

EDIT: #Tree'd :lol:
