Today’s question: What was an under-the-radar takeaway for you from the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg presented by RP Funding?. By now, this isn’t coincidence: It’s his style and a crucial part of his racecraft. “The Iceman.” Ericsson’s average finish was a respectable 8.1 last year, with two DNFs (did not finish). As the saying goes, Chip likes winners, and he’s got a strong lineup of them prepared for an all-out race for the title. The multicar, violent crashes in the race last Sunday proved one of the reasons why Dallara has been the exclusive chassis manufacturer of the INDYCAR SERIES since 2007 – the company builds a very safe race car. Evolution continues to breed a more competitive – but more importantly, a safer – race car.
