Aero development maybe frozen however car set up isn't - this is where Servia with his experience and knowledge would help RLL and Graham.
No it isn't clear if its part time or full time - it could be neither. The announcement spelled that out loud itself.
yes - the article stated that the 2nd car would depend on sponsors and external investment. No secrets there.
Isn't Indycar owned by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway not the IRL? |
At this late stage, I'm not really to sure how much Servia's knowledge and experience will really impact, he's only took part in 2 races last year. As a single car team RLLR, have done far better than any of the mult-car Honda teams. The second highest Honda driver was Munoz, in 10th place.
With regard to set ups, they are a highly individual thing. Drivers will have different set ups from each other.
I'm beginning to think Servia's inclusion, that's if it goes ahead, might have something more to do with the 2018 car. I'm not too sure when the teams take delivery of it but that's where someone like Servia's experience will come into its own, when it comes to evaluating it.
The IRL owns IndyCar, we've been over this before. Indy Racing League, LLC, is a subsidiary of Hulman & Company, who also own IMS.
