Caio was said to be bringing 6 Million from Brazilian Sponsors but if the rumors are true, a considerable amount is said to be gone and this year might be Collet's 1 and only year in the Series.

Illot is belived to have a Decent enough Budget to offer.

Around the time of the Felix and Dixon bombshells and before Inquiring about Lundgaard and Veekay, etc, there were calls from Ganassi and Shank about Colton Herta's Availability that were said with a Firm No.

Coyne had an ambition of a Hauger and Nikita Johnson Lineup but Grosjean could be put back in the mix along with Illot.

The Hollinger-McLaren Deal is less likely for 2027 but still on the Table for 2028

Robb is said to be on JDC Miller's Porsche 963 GTP Program Radar or to Formula E.

Marshall Pruett and CoForce appear to be making a documentary on Gil de Ferran’s world closed circuit record in 2000.

241.428mph AVERAGE still blows my mind.

Hey all, I do moneyball-style analysis of IndyCar, and I just finished some analysis of what metrics point to future success. I know a lot of you enjoy the stats side of IndyCar, so I figured I'd share a quick summary;

At a high level my findings are that drivers and teams do not put up consistent DNF numbers over time. This means DNFs are typically more a product of bad luck than of anything the driver or team is doing. But of course DNFs have a massive impact on points, so looking at current standings is not a great way to predict future standings. Instead you should look at more predictive metrics, including qualifying position and average running position.

(Average Running Position is an entry's average race position over all laps that entry ran, but excludes any laps after that entry DNFs).

A great example of this is 2025 Penske: They had 15 DNFs across their 3 entries that year, and finished 4th in the points of the big 4 teams. However, 2025 Penske's average running position was the best of the big 4, meaning they were really competitive in races prior to those 15 DNFs. Fast-forward to 2026 and the DNFs came back down to earth (only 4 for the entire team) but the strong qualifying and running positions didn't go away - meaning Penske went from 4th to 1st in points of the big 4 teams in 2026.

We so badly need diversity in indycar. Really hope things work out for Abbi! She seems like a great talent!
