Will Power led a Chevrolet rout of the opening phase of qualifying for the Indianapolis 500, with rival Honda having been completely shut out of the Fast Nine pole shootout. The result echoes qualifying for last year’s race , when Josef Newgarden was the sole Honda runner to make it through to the Fast Nine phase In a session that began more than two hours late due to earlier rain, Penske driver Power opened his qualifying run with an extraordinary 229.442mph lap before settling down for an average of 228.844mph. Reigning IndyCar champion Ryan Hunter-Reay came closest to matching the Australian with an average of 228.282mph for Andretti Autosport.

Marco Andretti and Carlos Munoz were best of the rest with laps of 228.754mph and 228.520mph respectively, leaving Penske’s Will Power as the quickest non-Andretti runner with a 228.401mph effort.

Get to Know . . . Tyler Laughlin
by David Ifeguni on May 13th, 2013
I think many of you can relate to this statement: When you first started out sim racing, you really didn’t take it seriously, but then something in you made you realize that if you try, you could really accomplish a great deal. That is definitely the case for iRacer Tyler Laughlin from Knoxville, Tennessee. If you look at his career statistics, he had fairly good numbers since joining the service on December 25th in 2008, all the way up until 2011. During that stretch he averaged about a dozen oval wins and 49 top fives per year. Something changed for 2012: Laughlin got serious. In 323 oval starts in 2012, he won 101 and scored 202 top five finishes. So far in 2013, he has started 76 races and has [...]

Busch drove IndyCar champion Ryan Hunter-Reay’s car to complete the full Indy 500 rookie orientation programme at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Thursday, achieving average speeds of 218 mph.

Get to Know . . . Jeff Ramsdell
by David Ifeguni on May 6th, 2013
This week I interviewed Jeff Ramsdell, a driver who runs a lot of races, but wins a lot of them too. An iRacer from the Georgia club, Ramsdell has run a total of over 1600 oval races since joining iRacing in May of 2010. In fact, today is his third year anniversary as an iRacer and he has a lot to be proud about. Of those 1600 starts, he has visited victory lane over 100 times, has finished in the top five nearly 600 times and has earned dozens of pole positions. With an iRating over 4700, he is definitely a driver to watch every time he hits the race track. I got the chance to talk to him about his iRacing career to date, his life outside of iRacing, [...]

Hunter-Reay claims Sao Paulo pole
May 4th, 2013
Ryan Hunter-Reay will start Sunday’s IndyCar race on the Sao Paulo street circuit from pole position after coming out on top from an eventful qualifying session. The reigning champion broke Will Power’s track record with his 1m20.4312s effort, which left him 0.3 seconds clear of Andretti team-mate EJ Viso. Dario Franchitti was third-fastest alongside Tony Kanaan, who did a superb job to get himself on the second row considering that he is still feeling the effects of a hand tendon injury sustained at Long Beach.
