CART 2001 1st (Gil De Ferran) and 2nd place (Kenny Brack) was locked up into the last race of the season, but that was across a 20 race season where only the top 12 drivers earn points in a race. Doing it across a 17 race season where everyone in the field earns points is way more impressive IMO.
@@randylahey345 that’s false. CART had 13 race winners while Indycar had 7 this season. The budgets were also bigger and you had multiple chassis and engine manufacturers that bring about more competition. Some of the drivers in 2001: Helio, De Ferren, Andretti, Dixon, Kanaan, Brack, Junquera, Tracy, Franchitti, Damatta, Carpantier, Vasser, Fernandez, Servia, Pappis, and Zanardi. I think saying todays competition is better is a stretch.
Dixon is really an amazing driver. Beyond the accolades, the details are where he is off the planet. Watch any race where he is asked to conserve fuel (a lot). He manages a lead and brings the car home. Every.fricking.time. Dude is a precision watch in human form.
Dixon is a great driver. It’s amazing to see being a newer fan and learning all these stats and consecutive seasons with wins. Also hearing all these crazy stories of driving with his injuries. James, I like how you order whatever your guest orders. It makes it interesting. Now we know you don’t like tea either. If you make tea from scratch starting from leaves you rinse them quickly in hot water then dump all that tea water. Then you add hot water again to steep for longer. The first rinse is called washing and most of the caffeine is removed in that first rinse, so that the second t8me the caffeine is much reduced. I’m not sure if tea in the tea bags is rinsed first or not. That’s how you can make tea with less caffeine. I used to live in Taiwan, and was there for almost 10 years. Passion fruit green tea was my favorite drink.
If anybody recalls the Indycar 36 episode in 2013 featuring Scott and Emma at Texas, she asked the waitress at Waffle House (of all places) if they had English breakfast tea, which I found hilarious. I actually got her to autograph a box of Twinings for me a couple of years later.
Hinch, you dont like coffee? Hand in your Canadian Passport! C'mon bro . As for Dixie, I would drink what he is having any day ..the man plays Chess when the rest of the field plays checkers
i’d have a 🍵matcha latte or chai latte w/ james 1:59-2:35 talking bout caffeine i wonder🤔 if any1 had hot energy drinks 2/ james 😄 is there any sugar, 🍯honey, or sweetener in their green tea? be4 i wasn’t into coffee drinks but more into tea, until i went to greece & i became a coffee addict too what next? energy drink addict? alcoholic?
Sounds like the hybrid will fill in the torque gap down low created by the turbos. Also could be used for regen braking giving skilled drivers another tool. There is a video with Will Power testing and his thoughts on RU-vid.
The impact is significantly reduced compared to early prototypes. There is a lighter weight halo/aeroscreen coming next year as well. With safety and hybrid come weight… especially if costs are to be contained. It’s not as if F1 aren’t heavy, limo-esque cars themselves at this point.
