John is a great guy, and his career in racing was pretty amazing. He had always dreamed of working for Team … Continue reading not this crap again

F1 flips up its nose again
By Mike Knapp Remember the scene in the movie Pretty Woman, when Julia Roberts walks into that swanky Beverly Hills boutique in her...ahem...lady of the evening-wear, and gets run out of the store by the snooty salesperson, then returns the next day in full hottie form carrying a bunch of expensive stuff from another shop? … Continue reading F1 flips up its nose again
Thoughts from the rolex 24
By Mike Knapp Between the excitement of the Rolex 24 weekend and seeing a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch (a bucket list item of mine) from my hotel in Orlando on Sunday night, it was a pretty good few days in the Sunshine State. It was great to be back at the Rolex for the … Continue reading Thoughts from the rolex 24
it’s rolex 24 weekend!
I’m just about ready to pack up the car and make the almost 1,200-mile drive to Daytona for the Rolex 24, and I couldn’t be more excited.

Five Things That Might Happen in 2024

The Year in IndyCar…Part 1
It’s that time of the year, when everyone puts together a bunch of “best of” lists. Whether it’s music, movies – or racing – everyone is looking back before looking forward, and then making a list about it.

‘Tis the season…for management mis-management
There’s no doubt that the IndyCar offseason is always rough. With six months of no racing and a long, slow, dark winter – at least for a lot of us – there is a lot of waiting. Because, as Steve McQueen once said, that’s all there is to life before and after racing. Waiting. One … Continue reading ‘Tis the season…for management mis-management
