I can't imagine how you would be familiar with that

Hehe, guilty as charged.

Maybe it was Fitch ? like Son of a Fitch!

Hehe, maybe…

McLaren is doing amazing this year at Indycar, and today they are currently 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 9th in the 500 qualy

It’s pretty hard to screw up a spec chassis and suspension. It’s good to see they are doing a good job tuning it tho.

It's very hard to have a car and set of drivers that are consistently good at aindy, though, so it's quite impressive.

I might tune in later.

Four cars in the top 12 shootout is a job bloody well done...

It's the livery I tell ya! Put that papaya Marlboro inspired livery on the F1 car please. Find a way. We will win again...

Gazzetta reports that Honda will return to F1 in 2026 by supplying engines to Aston Martin.
An official announcement is expected to come tomorrow, and the partnership is expected to run until 2030 at least.

Missed another motorist. Zak creates a lot of noise, works well with sponsors, but the main thing is not working, the team is not progressing.

We have a engine supplier, and its the best one, we are not missing out on anything with this engine formula or the next. With this rule set as it is now, we can win if we do our homework.

I think not. The factory team will take into account its aerodynamics when building a new engine in 2026, McLaren will get what they give.
The best engineers will be more happy to join the factory team.

The engine (MGU-K less) will be almost the same in size/packaging, rules are pretty stable in that area and will remain so until 2030

Exactly… the 2026 Pu have tightly regulated bounding boxes for most of the components, obviously there is still other advantages to being a factory team like cooling config etc. overall far more constrained geometrically than current gen

Zak Brown:

“So we’ll have the technology, then it’s people and we have some exciting announcements coming up soon. We have a great team, but we need some additional thinking and some fresh ideas.

Bold words from Zak...Time to start building up the confidence

Monaco livery. I like it! Simple and bold!
