Easily one of the dumbest comments I've ever seen thrown at Jack Harvey, and that's saying something

[@jonnyhollywood]

@@FrosteeWusky just my opinion of him. Having met the guy and watched him “race”, he really doesn’t inspire much in or out of the car for me.

[@elemkay5104]

@@jonnyhollywood He was fast in his MSR days. Some driver/team combos don't work for a myriad of reasons, and that was definitely the case when he went to RLL. Now it seems he's battling health problems more than anything.

[@jonnyhollywood]

@@elemkay5104 I don’t like to see anyone suffer health issues, but it’s elite sport, if you can’t perform then move aside. As for his record, I’ve never seen anything from him that I would think warrants a full time paid drive. Plus, he really is as dull as dishwater. Again, just my opinion of him.

[@UNHchabo]

@@jonnyhollywood We as race fans are always talking about how rain allows setup to not matter as much and for driver skill to shine through: at the 2019 Indy GP, Jack got 3rd place in the rain. I really think he got screwed over by moving to RLL, since you're not allowed to test with a team before signing with them. Apparently the first time he drove their car he was completely shocked and baffled how RLL's cars could be that different to what he'd driven with MSR and SPM. Just like Felix Rosenqvist, his driving results apparently don't gel well with every team's setup. He overperformed with MSR, giving them better results than Simon Pagenaud when he stepped in. Then he just couldn't drive RLL cars well, and was overshadowed by Lundgaard. But his best result with the team (apart from the Nashville crashfest) was the 2022 IndyGP, which again happened in the rain.

Penske needs to buy at least Chicagoland and Kentucky to repurpose them, maybe even Gateway and Milwaukee, but there is not enough money in the sport to do that

[@DJ7mph]

In 3 hybrid races there have been no on track passes for the lead. Starting to look very F1.

[@izzdin6228]

All 3 races just so happen to take place at a track known for being hard to pass (mid ohio) and having a half ass repave (Iowa). All these plus the tires not degrading as much and the additional weight of the hybrids just made for subpar Indycar racing.

Lovely effort by our boy Stingray, to liven up the race! I hope he is alright. At this point he should relax and just drive the car, rather then trying to fly the damn thing, no reason to try and emulate Latifi.

[@miguelcebriancarrasco1907]

Wasn’t even Sting Ray’s fault! The guy he hit had run out of fuel and coasting on the racing line 🙄

[@nicofolkersma2535]

They have a steering wheel, don't they? But looking at most indyraces, they probably don't have a driverslicense, so wouldn't know wgat to do with that round thing ahyway. Still, glad he's okay.

@@nicofolkersma2535How are you suppose to turn when the guy is going 60mph slower out of a corner without crashing?

[@UNHchabo]

He *suddenly* ran out of fuel, and was on the racing line. If he'd turned down at that point it would've made it worse. That doesn't make it Sting Ray's fault, I think that makes it a racing incident.

[@Yosser70]

@@UNHchabo Nothing sudden about it, he’d been slowing for a while, so should have already been off the racing line, he was trying to limp home on fumes.

Power stayed out a lap longer than Palou in the last pitstop that's how he got past him. This is definitely the first race that I can think of where a driver went from 22nd to 1st without having to do any overtaking.
