Yannick should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Yeah, 29 cars. And they all will be allowed to start! That record car count for an IRL sanctioned race (besides the Indy 500) surely going to attract some motor racing fans and invite them to travel to Chicagoland.

What, where and when was the highest car count for a CART race (even if not all of them did qualify)?

And I have more questions:

Has Conquest driver Francesco Dracone had an oval test yet - or will the more experienced Mario Romancini be back for the ovals?

Sonoma is known as Infineon Raceway. What did the track owners do with the money that the sale of the name rights has brought them? Has it been invested in reconstruction, safety updates or infrastructure?
I'm surprised that the number of tracks with a name sponsor is not higher (in fact, Sears Point and Disneyworld are the only ones that I'm aware of) because over here in Germany, almost every major soccer stadium has a name sponsor.
