Some crazy driving out there today causing too many yellows.

I will be reviewing the replay tomorrow. I feel some stern warnings may be handed out.

Quite a few people seemed very under prepared.

Indeed Neutral

Either people get serious about this, or this could be our last Indy 500 :bangry:

If I'm not wrong, there were between 4 and 6 full course yellows

Apologies for causing (I guess it was, by that time the 5th caution)
I had lost the front runners, and was only thinking about what I'd learned for the race when I was around cars of similar pace.

Sadly, by the time I caused caution, most of those cars were gone from the track already.

I drove a bit hard, and had made a change I've now readjusted. Was hoping to escape before it caused yellow, but it came out just as I escaped.

...still don't understand why Jan drove into me [prior to my causing the dumb caution] after I gave him the race line and was content to let him pass so I could draft him. :grrr:

Remember that being overtaken is not the end of your race here, get back in the draft and try to hang on to the car in front and maybe follow it to save some fuel.

At the exit my car was pushing to the outside while you were steering to the inside at the exit (not holding line) and touched my right rear. It was more unfortunate than to blame s.b.
Nevertheless it was a test race to learn about the car in traffic so i did and will do it better in race.

Many other cars were taking the inside line and muscle their way through. I hope they will use straight line instead in race.

No, I wasn't. You even said your car was pushing (ie..you kept coming up the track), I gave you plenty of room and the entire race line. I was not turning down, I was holding my line and did not deviate.

Nevertheless, it wasn't you pushing up the track and into me that was the problem, it was you then seemingly jerking your car hard right and trying to take me with you when you hit the wall that irritated me. Suspect

If you'd have held your line there'd have been no issue.
