I remember when at the start of the year the FIA said they weren't going to allow drivers to shove each other off the track like they had in 2021, yet here we are. Such a joke lol, just fucking allow it at this point instead of pretending to have rules.
No further investigation for Perez and Hamilton or Perez and Leclerc for leaving the track.
Stewards noted Verstappen forcing Schumacher off at Turn 6...

I'm disappointed to wake up this morning and find out that
@IndyCar
's exclusive license means that the iRacing Indy 500 and any sort of broadcasting or streaming of the IndyCar on iRacing will be prohibited for 2023 and beyond.
(part 2 in replies)
Without the IndyCar on iRacing I also wouldn't have had the opportunity to join
@TeamHypeSim
and meet people such as
@TommyMilner
and
@AthleteGuyTy
and represent such an amazing group of people every week. Hopefully I'll be able to represent them in other ventures in the future.
There's no way to put into words how excited I am with that result, if you had told me that I'd be running like that last night I'd have said that you're crazy. Huge thanks to everyone at Team Talent for making a rocket, full focus on Indy now.
Start: P2
Finish: P2
Pretty ecstatic about that one, definitely not something I expected to see when the season started after my first two had gone. Gotta thank everyone at
@engineeringhm
, without them I wouldn't have been able to do it at all.
Wow, what a finish. Stuck in the bottom of the top 5 for a majority of the race, but the final yellow played perfectly into my hands after I had just completed my final stop. Thought I was destined for 3rd until the seas parted with 3 to go and I was able to steal one away! (1/2)
iRacing helped me truly fall in love with IndyCar as a sport after being an irregular viewer prior, and I was planning on attending my first few IndyCar races in person in 2023.
All in all such an unfortunate deal for the community, thankful for all the friends I've made in it.
Really happy with the pace that I was able to show in the
@TeamHypeSim
LMP2 today in my
@IVRALeague
debut, disappointed with the end result, just got unlucky. Plenty of positives to take away though, we'll come back even better next time out at Barcelona.

@KingOfChins
It's a real shame to be one of the cars to beat all race only to be run over by a former teammate in a desperation move when they had plenty of time to pass. It stinks, but we know we have a good package for May. Onto the next one. Thanks to everyone for all their hard work!
Didn't mention it in my last tweet but still really cool to see 2
@TeamHypeSim
cars in the Top 5. The Brickyard giveth, the Brickyard taketh away. There's some fun stuff coming up in the near future and you can bet we'll be full focus forwards on that.
Pretty solid way to end the season with P4 today in the
@ISOWC
500. A pretty messy mid-season for me means it's only 7th in the final championship standings, but I know more's possible and I'll be hopeful to do more if the ISOWC returns in 2022.

I should do pre-race tweets more often if it means the race goes like that! Feels great to finally get my first

Big thanks to HyperX for all they do as a sponsor of Lionheart, couldn’t ask for anything better.
Didn’t get the run I wanted in the Fast 9 but there was no way I was beating

Pretty cool to win the

Hotlanta never fails to deliver! Love these cars, didn't think I'd find myself winning the race tho! Maybe I gotta drive these more often

Close, but no cigar. Really hard to make up positions today, was pretty much stuck in the same spot all race. Feels good to get a top 5 finish though, much better than barrel rolling down the backstretch like I was last year. Big thanks to Team Talent again for all their work.

Ecstatic with this result even more than usual considering I didn’t even know if I’d be able to race the week prior.
Big shoutout to the
@HiltonHotels
WiFi for holding strong throughout the race! All eyes forwards to Silverstone now.
lol what a joke, let's hire someone who has 1 or 2 years left in their career and is on the decline instead of keeping your driver who has consistently gotten better throughout the season. I'd understand more if there was a promising rookie, but what do Haas gain from this?
⚠️ | Nico Hulkenberg is reportedly close to agreeing to a deal with Haas.
Steiner is said to be "impressed at the relentlessness of Hulkenberg's phone calls."
I've said it once and I'll say it again, the fact that the existing teams have any say over who does and doesn't get to join Formula One is a fucking joke.
Really excited to have qualified in the top split for my first Indy 500 attempt. Huge props to the
@LastLapMsports
guys for all the work they put in. Hopefully I don't disappoint tomorrow, but we'll see how it goes.
🅿️1⃣!
Hour long hotlap competitions are always fun, was lucky to break draft early otherwise it would've been a proper brawl. Onto the rectangle next week, can't wait for 4 wide lmao
As it turns out driving yourself into the wall on lap 20 after saying before the restart to be careful isn't very good for your pace. P2-4 for the rest of the team though, so still some good to take away from it.
What a way to start the season. Big props to everyone
@TeamHypeSim
, fuel strategy played out perfectly. Big thanks to

Solid P2 today in the

@ethika
for all they do!
That was a much better race than I think anyone really expected from this track. DRS probably a bit too strong but yeah, can we do this instead of Barcelona permanently?
The FIA are investigating Lewis Hamilton for wearing a T-shirt with a message about the shooting of Breonna Taylor both before and after his win at the Tuscan GP.
P3 today, got caught in an early incident and just couldn't overtake as quickly as I needed to in order to have a shot at the win. Shame I crashed so much in the road rounds as I feel with those oval performances I could've finished top 5 in the points.
Stoked to win my first
@ApexOnRacing
rF2 race. Came at Turkey, one of the few tracks I had a shot and it all came together. Here's to hoping there's more in the future.
Not super confident heading into tomorrows' race but hopefully I'll be proven wrong and I can give the Team Talent guys a run they deserve. Catch it all on

Ferrari wins Hypercar on their return, Corvette win in GTE for maybe their final race as a 'factory' team, and the G56 NASCAR takes the checkered flag. What a race
Could've gone better but also could've gone much worse. One too many mistakes on my best qualifying lap, then I couldn't thread my way through traffic well enough in the race.
Big thanks to Team Talent again for all their work, would be impossible without them.

this is a joke right? you would’ve still been fucked up by that spring w/ the halo, while the device indycar tested might’ve potentially protected you, yet indycars the one doing nothing????
When you see all the accidents that happens in

and
@IndyCar
in the last years . We can say that
@F1
is always trying to improve with (HALO , Track Changes , virtual safety car etc to improve safety ) and
@IndyCar
is not doing much ...
P12 from this. Big thanks again to everyone at LLM and Spark VR for even giving me the setup that let me qualify for this. Just had nothing the first 60 laps, finally figured it out after the second set of stops and by then I was too far back to ever recover. (1/2)

It's almost like they set this based on if you can gain time by going wide in the last corner or something? Turns out gravel isn't quicker than staying on the track, who would've thought?
The race director's event notes will specify when exceeding track limits at the final corner will "result in that lap time and the immediately following lap time being invalidated by the stewards." - most recently in Bahrain and Abu Dhabi/Austin last year. Not in China notes.
