I'll be at the race! Really hope they get the 2nd line working.
Awesome Eric! Hope you have an amazing time!!!
Have fun Eric, grab a cold one for me, gonna probably need it.
Hanging out for some noise,...thanks guys!
Awesome! Thanks for watching as always Liz!
F1 , Indycar , Nascar , IMSA, WEC ... this week is epic
Have I forgotten anything?
That’s unfortunate about working. I’m also working tomorrow 😢 how do you go about avoiding spoilers and where would you go to watch the race back?
Ah sorry to hear that Jack! Well luckily I can't really use my phone at work so don't look at it and then it's just the drive home that's easy to avoid! How about you?
@@IndyFanatics I’m the same, I work at a restaurant so I only really have my phone on my break so I’ll just have to not use it 😂
Nobody else has said it, so I will: my bold prediction is Jimmie Johnson finishes in the Top-10. It'll probably be 9th or 10th, but after over a year on the circuit, this is his first real chance to finally shine a little.
I can't even believe we missed mentioning Jimmie! Yes he is a big excitement going into this weekend for sure! A top 10 would be awesome!
Wow this actually aged well
I am going out on a limb and saying that scotty mac will lead fast willy p and dixon across the line, and kirkwood is going to show out and be the best of the rookies, hopefully the extra practice session will get some rubber laid down to open up passing, I know people are down on texas but I'm really looking forward to it. We have a full plate of racing this weekend, IndyCar, Sebring and F1, I'm so ready
I know buzzed by all the racing this weekend! Scotty Mac for double wins would be a mega start to the season for him!
I feel like that Dixon is the favorite but if Milwaukee comes back next year, I’m excited for them to return for the first time since 2015.
Yeah would be awesome if Milwaukee returned!! But yeah Dixon always feels like a favourite at Texas!
Veekay with a sneaky podium perhaps?
Maybe. ECR has great oval packages. May Ed himself podiums?
Maybe! If the Veekay we know and love is back then definitely!
Not really sure how i feel about ovals yet. Probably will watch the start and end. But always will be rooting for Romain to do well. And i hope Jimmy does well. Also a Helio win would be nice!
We love oval racing but understand its not to everyone's liking! The strategy and tyre stints are really interesting to see unfold and how a race can turn on its head with cautions! Romain will be great to see how he gets on at his first super speedway!
I really yope Romain does well on this oval I kind of hope he puts on a show just
Ike he did at Gateway last year because that was fun to watch. Also hoping Pato gets a podium if his strategy doesn’t let him down
Well Pato knows he can perform well here! I know you always hope for the best for Grosjean! Excited to see how he does!
@@IndyFanatics it’s also going to be intresting to see how the rookies get on it’s definitely going to be a learning process for them
Fantasy team ahead of qualifying Pato, McLaughlin, Rahal and Kirkwood. Could see Pato, Palou, Dixon, Newgarden or McLaughlin winning
Yup there are quite a few as always you can see winning! Can't wait to see how it unfolds! I've gone Dixon, Pagenaud, Rahal and Johnson for now! Will see how it plays out!
Man these massive breaks with weeks without racing are so annoying! I hate waiting!
Absolutely agree! The waiting really does suck but thank goodness it's back!
INDYCAR12HRSOFSEBRINGF1....LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
What a weekend of motorsport!!!!! Let's gooooo! Enjoy!
Hecks yeah...I hope the resid does bettah than PJ1 and being 90 in Sebring today... maybe they will stick a little better. Podium 3> Will Power 2>Newgarden, Winner Alex Palou Star> Grosjean, Rookie... why not Kirkwood Dark Horse>Ed Carpenter
Ed Carpenter is always a dark horse on the ovals!! Alex Palou getting his first oval victory! Will be fascinating to see! Let's hope for a great race Greg!
@@IndyFanatics Well, then Carpenter's team -Veekay. Leading all those laps doesn't count for much Rinus & ScottyMc, The "Pay Window" doesn't open until the LAST LAP! Did you like that a little?
"Fratelli, d'Italia! L'Italia, s'è desta!" No, this is not in happiness for Charles Leclerc getting pole in Bahrain, rather this is for the Italian rugby team who beat Wales 21-22 in Cardiff to get their first win in the Six Nations since beating Scotland in the 3rd round of fixtures in the 2015 tournament! A run of 36 straight defeats! Now hopefully England can beat France later, although that will mean Ireland win the championship.
I think Ganassi will be strong here, Dixon especially and I'm curious to see how Johnson goes on his IndyCar oval debut. You can never count out the Penskes, and I think the Andrettis are a good wildcard as well (Grosjean was great at Gateway last year, interested to see how he does on his first race with the superspeedway spec aero). I wouldn't count out McLaren here either, O'Ward was particularly strong in 2021, getting that win after all. A chance to bounce back from a tough St. Pete. And Lord knows McLaren are going to have a tough race in Bahrain tomorrow, let's hope it isn't a weekend of pain all round!
I'm worried the second groove won't be totally rubbered in and Grosjean will pull a Gateway-esque high-risk move and have a bad crash. I realllly hope in wrong.
I hope you're wrong too Joe, though that outside line has been dangerous!
Strangely enough, when TMS was new, NASCAR drivers hated it and the IRL has some great races. The track was changed from the original progressive banking early on and it took several years for the stock cars to have better results. Sadly, I don't have much confidence in the track staying on the schedule. With the last few races and crowds being lackluster, to say the least, I think SMI will cut their hassles and focus on NASCAR.
Predictions: Rahal, Power, Carpenter, with Jimmie Johnson being in the top 10. Rookie, Kirkwood, although none will do terribly well.
Yup feel you may be right that Texas could be a quick end to a slow demise at the circuit! Great podium if that comes out and yeah would love a Jimmie top 10!
I have Scott Dixon winning
He's always a good man to bet on at Texas!
👍🏿👍🏿
I think you two need to listen up about Scott McLaughlin,...he's on course now, and we know what that means don't we,...hmmm!
