IndyCar have allowed for an optional increase in downforce, for three of the oval events this season.

I wonder if you have to declare before the event, or you can decide throughout practice and qualifying what you want to do |

I don't see the point of adding downforce at Iowa.

It is optional and it may turn out that is unnecessary. |

Ernie Francis Jr gets ride in Indy Lights this year, he was good in the rain in F4 and FAmericas a couple years ago. Hopefully he does well and gets some sponsor eyeballs.

Congrats to Helio Castroneves and Simon Pagenaud on their overall victory at Daytona with Meyer Shank Racing.
Congrats also to Colton Herta and Pato O'ward on their LMP2 victory with DragonSpeed. |

Castroneves just can’t stop winning, even when coming up to 47. Definitely an old school racer in the states.

He had been in the doldrums for a while at Team Penske, with the one win at Detroit in 2014. Apart from a few podium finishes there were no wins until Iowa in 2017, which was his last for them.
He then switched full time to the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, with Acura Team Penske in 2018 but it didn't come good until 2020 when he won the championship. He then left them at the end of 2020 for Konica Milota and won Daytona for the first time in 2021.Then there was Indy last year and now Daytona again this year. |

With Chilton finally giving up, what do we think this means for his family team in Indycar?
Will this allow them to push on to a better level, or will they be swallowed up by Hollinger? |

It's being modified with discussion with the teams. Ganassi pulled his drivers from Sebring so Indy is working on a new condensed schedule for the weekend.

It looks like testing for the 2023 hybrid engines from Chevy and Honda will now take place in April at Barber Motorsports Park.
