Looks like USCR is getting stronger, not only with di Resta getting a drive, but also Jense and Fred being interested in the series. Seems it can only get better. It's becoming as popular as the old IMSA series

I'd be very happy to see both Senna and Hartley back they were both great for ESM this year. Senna often seems to be under appreciated. I personally would love to see him back in Mclarens in Blancpain too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Course he could run well this weekend in Austin and be kept in the Toro Rosso fold for 2018 as third driver or the last driver left standing stuck having to drive the STR Honda |

Hartley getting his run in F1 with the current Renault engined Toro Rosso, and the Nissan ESM. But Toro Rosso moves to Honda next year. If Hartley stays on, does he continue his Indycar future or stay in F1? I think that's one to look for. Same with Button. He may not drive the United Autosports car, but he'll be linked to McLaren still. With a possibility of Nissan/Renault drives. Maybe in Super GT, maybe in IMSA.

Is it just me or is button either super fickle or just unavailable to drive stuff. He is rumored all the time, but nothing ever materializes..

I tend to agree. Has he raced anything since his fill-in driver role at Monaco last year, when he was toddling around in 20th place?

Button reminds me of Webber. I was a bit disappointed when Webber had a bit of a stroppy go at V8SC and Blancpain because they weren't fast enough for him. He was almost insulted at being asked if he'd run the Bathurst 1000. Shame. |

Beginning to sound like a done deal:

"Alonso has directly confirmed he is interested"
Not a done deal to me. |

I have to say something.
After the events of yesterday's GP, I'm just that much more glad that IMSA switched out CotA for Mid Ohio in 2018. |

And F1 DOES have those things currently? lol
I think I can feel pretty good about ~40-car fields covering three classes, and having Road America, VIRginia, Road Atlanta, Watkins Glen, Laguna Seca, Mid Ohio, Mosport, and Lime Rock all on the schedule. Get a McLaren in GTD and a second Ferrari in GTLM and things would be about as perfect as I can imagine. (The only other things that really come to mind would be a race at Mont Tremblant, and perhaps one at Sears Point as well.) |
