That and more silly season news. Plus how much money did Red Bull Racing spend in 2021? Many eyebrows are raised ahead of the final budget certification
Ahead of Petit Le Mans, I talk with Ricky Taylor, Driver of the Acura ARX-05 DPi car for Wayne Taylor Racing about his chances of securing the 2022 Championship.
In Formula 1’s silliest of silly seasons seen in eons, Daniel Ricciardo seems, inexplicably, odd man out. But several seats are still up for grabs. And much more news.
Several drivers received multiple warnings, a few saw black and white flags, and a couple were penalized. None of them gained an advantage. Sprints still seem silly, too. Otherwise, great race!
Rain fell during qualifying again and brought a somewhat unexpected starting grid. A mega crash at the start of the race proved also to be just the start of the action.
Wet qualifying and dry racing brought different strategies, setups, and a scrambled starting grid. Engine penalties didn’t help. And I interview Porsche factory driver, Laurens Vanthoor.
And for different reasons. Some suffered mechanical failures, others physical pain. But it led to unexpected results across the board. We also cover Indycar’s Grand Prix at Road America.
IMSA put on quite a show despite just bringing 16 cars to the party. No yellow flags, but plenty of fenders clashing made it close in both DPi and GTD classes. I also interview the drivers from Wayne Taylor Racing, Meyer Shank Racing, and Paul Miller Racing.
