Unless you feel that Rahal has mastered the set up of the DW12 and has nothing left to learn?

Bobby clearly doesn't

I'm quite sure teams share data and set ups and why not but RLLR have done fantastically well considering they don't; top Honda in both this season and last. It would seem RLLR have had less of an uphill struggle than fellow Honda competitors like Andretti Autosport, who field a multi-car team.

Maybe having a multi-car team is actually a hindrance. With all that data flowing around, it might make it difficult to choose the appropriate information to use. With one car that problem doesn't arise and compared to other Honda competitors, Graham Rahal has certainly mastered the set up of the DW 12.

One of the criticisms leveled at Bobby Rahal, was there was too much hands on. Since he's taken more of a back seat, the results have started to come their way.

It's very simple. The Indy Racing League or IRL, is the organisation that runs the Verizon IndyCar Series. The series itself, comprises the various drivers, teams and race tracks. Hence the differentiation.

Now, any more news on Servia getting that second RLLR seat?
