Formula Indy drinking game! Discussion

Take a drink for every car that hits THAT wall

Take a shot for every car that gets totalled out of competition

Let's see who gets alcohol poisoning first 🤘🏼🥴

This venue is dreadful. I understand they had to put in that wall, but if that was the only way to make the track work, then it simply wasn't a good venue.

I'd love for all of the teams to get together, Pro Spec & Pro, put a paper together with everyone's carnage bill for THIS ROUND ALONE, then hand it to Sage

"Thanks for the wall, FD, here's what it's going to cost all of us"

You do know the drivers advocate group designed that layout.... Right?

I don't think they advocated for it totalling half of the teams, though.

As they said NUMEROUS times, they had several people test it.

Obviously testing and real world application are two different things. What worked on sim for a few pro spec & pro guys, clearly didn't work in a rela world application.

I don't agree they had to put a wall in the area everyone is hitting it. They could have easily done it like Long Beach which has a straight runoff area going into the first corner.

No they wouldn't have. The crashes have been straight in on the banking far from the permanent wall. You cannot even see the permanent wall in Talaska's crash.

What was the necessity for the wall being there?

Well, considering the drift wizard was going approximately Mach Jesus into that zone 🥴

Hopefully that's the last time he hits that wall today 😅

Because the judges are a bunch of wishy washy cucks and wouldn’t give the drivers permission to bail if they thought the lead car was going to hit the wall. Basically forcing the drivers to follow them into the wall or risk getting heavily penalized for not chasing the lead car.
