Quick thing on the David Malukas situation, because so many people are blaming mclaren.
David was hired to race for the team. He broke his hand in a biking accident, which in a lot of cases would be a breach of contract (not proven to be the case here).
He’d already missed four races, and McLaren had to bring on Theo in the meantime. They’re paying for a driver they cannot use. It makes sense they would end the contract. Yes, it sucks for malukas, and I truly wish him all the best, but it’s not McLaren’s fault. It’s not some evil scheme, it’s business.
i feel like the competition in Indycar has ramped up significantly in the past 6 years. In the 90s and 00s there were probably 4-6 top tier drivers that were most likely to win. Now there are easily 10-14 top tier drivers, any of whom could win any event at any time.
And races like long beach remind you how interesting strategy is with refueling. It was a bit of a slow burn race that ended in 15 laps of non-stop fireworks. Incredible racing! Top 5 within 3.5 seconds!
And I mean, Scott Dixon. who else does it like him!
