Watched the highlights of phoenix. Wickens did well again. Good move at the end by Newgarden with the tyres though.

Bring me up to speed please.

All have the same chassis and bodywork (one manufacturer?)
Different engine suppliers and what spec? Capacity, configuration and hybrid?
Anything else?

Enjoyable race, and an interesting final 15-20 mins. Good, sensible drive from Newgarden, who is a class driver. Seabass tried staying out hoping the conditions wouldn't worsen - but they did, but still got a good result.

Between this and the IMSA stream, I’m loving US racing this year.

Indy 500 practice yellow flagged due to a bloody big storm approaching, even though the sun is still shining at the circuit - everyone rushing to get the cars under cover

And we have our first car to wall contact !

JR Hildebrand just brushed the wall exiting a corner - no injuries and just minor damage to the car

Oddly, although the right side of the car hit the wall, most damage appeared to be the front left frown
