Even though Lotus will bow out of Indycar at the end of this year, HVM are still contractualy obligated to run the engine, especially when HVM Boss Keith Wiggens has fairly strong ties to Lotus Cars. Also, Honda and Chevrolet already stated that they couldn't supply anymore engines to anyone this year (Which shafted many people, Michael Shank included).

RHR likely will lose this. Doesn't matter if there are team orders the car is falling apart.
 
Will: Wait, we're going back out?

Team: YES, SUIT BACK UP!!

Will: Ok *Runs Back*

:lol:

I'm unfortunately beginning to think its Will's now. Its over for RHR. Too much pressure and too much at stake. Car's falling apart too and its gone to hell.
 
I was pretty surprised at the lack of knowledge regarding the situation they all had. They were interviewing Will and the reporter was saying 'Oh, you must feel awful losing the championship like that' 'Yeah we're gutted'. You haven't lost it yet! :lol:
 
Looking at the points table from previous round it looks like Will would have to finish 17th to gain 1 more point than he had sitting in the motorhome.

If he gets to 24th he gains 2 points more. 17th would gain him yet another point.

I thought that last was worth 10 and then its 12 points up to 17th.He will get by Viso before they black flag him for being too slow.

18th-24th is 12 points.
25th on back is 10 points.

Will they black flag him if he keeps doing what he is doing now and going down the pitlane every 5 laps?

I know. I remember in the season opener, they mentioned that Rubens was runner up "Only because of team orders favouring Michael Schumacher".

2002: Michael, 144 points, Rubens, 77 points.
2004: Michael, 148 points, Rubens, 114 points.

I didn't exactly see Rubens rush to correct them either. :sly:

Well looking at the timing he was almost 4 sec a lap slower than the leaders so they have to prove the car can compete.The only way Will gets up to 17th or higher is if a bunch of cars drop out of this race in the next 30 laps.

The irony here is the Red Honda's have the speed to finish top 5.Team Penske rooting for the Target cars is just strange.
 
Ah dammit, Ryan is done. I just know it.
 
Those extra few laps might just be enough for Power. Ryan's 6th, but is far behind the top runners.
 
Alex Tagliani, Long lost Canadian relative of Robert Downy. Jr?
 
I don't know if anyone mentioned this but Legge is running in the top 10.
