Bob Jenkins, who has been a constant figure at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for over 40 years, joined IMS President J. Douglas Boles on “Behind the Bricks” to announce he will reduce his role on the IMS Public Address this year. Though he still plans to be visible during the Month of May, Jenkins is stepping back to prioritize his battle with brain cancer and asked his family – the Indianapolis 500 community -- for support. Jenkins first appeared on the IMS Radio Network in 1979 and became “The Voice of the 500” from 1990 through 1998 while also working in television. Most recently, he has served on the IMS PA.

AMSP ("Meklaren") - boje za ovu sezonu:

 

[Drago]

Bilo bi lepše da su i F1 auto ofarbali u crno-oranž varijantu. Meni je leva varijanta lepša od desne.

[Radoye]

Levo vuce na tradiciju SPM tima, desno je vise Meklaren.

 

 

Na Indiju vole da je svaki bolid razlicito ofarban da se lakse razlikuju vozaci, timovi cesto imaju odredjenu semu pa samo rotiraju boju prema sponzorima ali je retko da bude dva potpuno identicno ofarbana bolida. Meni su obe ove seme OK, mozda bi moglo vise papaje ali to vec iz mene zagrizeni Meklarenovac govori 🙂

[Drago]

Šteta je što pravila u F1 ne dozvoljavaju da se boje na bolidima u jednoj ekipi razlikuju, to je zadnji pokušao BAR 1999. pa nije prošlo. Boje u Indycar su raznolikije, maštovitije i upečatljivije od onih u F1. U toku F1 trke se nekada baš trudim da bih prepoznao koji tim je u kadru, naročito kada ih snimaju čeono. Tu prednjače Williams, Haas, obe Alfa ekipe...

Tek su vozačke kacige neprepoznatljive i prešarene, osim Vetelove.

Kao trebalo bi da nam bude dosta sto jedan bolid ima crni a drugi zuti T-bar iznad usisnika za vazduh, mo's misliti. Danas u F1 ni brojevi na bolidima vise nisu citki osim u najkrupnijem planu, nekad si makar po njima mogao da znas ko je ko a sad je frka ne samo pogoditi ko je vozac nego i da li je u pitanju Has ili Alfa Romeo...

Montoja je na Laguni testirao za Meklaren sa setom pito-cevi uobicajenim za F1 testiranja ali prvi put vidjenim na Indikar bolidu. S obzirom da svi koriste identicne aeropakete obicno nema potrebe za ovako detaljnim ispitivanjem opstrujavanja vazduha ali deo ekipe stacioniran u Vokingu zeli na ovaj nacin da bolje razume sta razlicite promene setapa tacno postizu na bolidima. Ostali timovi imaju vec puno godina iskustva na koje se mogu osloniti, ovako sada ljudi prikljuceni iz F1 hvataju precice.

Pietro Fittipaldi is returning to the team with which he made his NTT INDYCAR SERIES debut three years ago to pilot its No. 51 Dale Coyne Racing with RWR entry at all 2021 oval events on the schedule.

 

Fittipaldi will share driving duties of the team’s #51 full season entry with his former Haas F1, and now current Dale Coyne Racing with RWR teammate, Romain Grosjean who is taking part in all the road and street course races on the schedule.
