(April 13, 2015) – NTT DATA Chip Ganassi Racing driver Tony Kanaan finished sixth on the 2.74-mile road course at NOLA Motorsports Park in the inaugural Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana. The Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana marked the debut of the Verizon IndyCar Series at NOLA Motorsports Park. After inclement weather cancelled qualifying and offset Kanaan’s first-place finish in his group, the field was set based on Entrant points after the St. Petersburg race which meant Kanaan would start third. Due to incoming weather and track conditions, the race was a timed race of 105 minutes and all cars were allowed to do a five-minute systems check prior to green flag. After receiving the green flag, Kanaan hit a wet spot on the first lap and briefly went off into the grass which resulted in the loss of three positions putting him in sixth. An early strategic call from Kanaan’s pit stand called for the No. 10 NTT DATA Chevrolet to come in on Lap 11 to be one of the first cars in the field to switch from rain tires to slick tires and also receive fuel. When Kanaan returned to the field from pit lane on cold tires and in damp track conditions, he overshot a corner and ended up in the grass. He was able to make it out of the mud before getting stuck and causing a yellow, but the No. 10 lost multiple positions and was running near the back of the field. By Lap 15 Kanaan had run the quickest lap of the race, but with his two off-track incidents he was running in the 18th position. The first yellow of the race came out on Lap 15 for a stopped car on track and Kanaan was called back in to pit under yellow after the team found a fuel probe issue that had caused no fuel to be put into the No. 10 NTT DATA Chevrolet on the first stop. The field went green again on Lap 20 and was followed by multiple cautions over the next 10 laps. NTT DATA Chip Ganassi Racing took advantage of Kanaan’s current position of 19th and the multiple yellow flags, and had the No. 10 in twice on Lap 22 and 29 to top off on fuel. The two extra fueling opportunities allowed Kanaan to push the car as hard as he could and not worry about conserving fuel. After another yellow for a car stopped in the gravel trap on Lap 33, the field went green on Lap 36 with Kanaan cycling back up to fifth. The immediate yellow following that restart only lasted for three laps and the field went green again on Lap 39 with 20 minutes remaining. Another yellow flag came out with 10 minutes remaining for a stalled car on track and Kanaan was sixth on the restart with only eight minutes remaining. After two minutes of green flag racing another caution came out for a multi-car incident. Kanaan was able to maintain his current position before the last caution came out and the No. 10 NTT DATA Chevrolet would receive the checkered flag in sixth under caution. With the result, Kanaan holds the fifth position in the Verizon IndyCar Series point standings with 63 markers, 21 points behind the points leader Juan Pablo Montoya. Notes of Interest Kanaan was overall fastest in the first practice session on Friday afternoon. Kanaan and the No. 10 car crew were presented with the Firestone Pit Stop Performance Award after the first practice session on Friday for having the fastest pit stop during the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Before the qualifying session was cancelled on Saturday, all four CGRT cars were positioned to advance to the next round and Kanaan finished P1 in his group in round one. The Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana began an hour earlier than scheduled due to weather and was a timed race of 105 minutes. Kanaan opened the season with two top-10 finishes with a third place finish in St. Petersburg and a sixth place at NOLA Motorsports Park. NTT DATA Chip Ganassi Racing Quoteboard Tony Kanaan, No. 10 NTT DATA Chevrolet: “NTT DATA Chip Ganassi Racing started the race really strong and I was running up in the top five quite a bit there at the beginning. We were one of the first cars to change to slicks and I just came into a corner a little too fast with cold tires and ended up in the grass. We lost some spots there, but it allowed the team to use my position to our benefit and we were able to get a lot of fuel on the yellows and run as hard as we could when it went green. I think I was running all the way back in 19th at one point, so it just shows how much the team and my engineers and strategists came together to get the No. 10 NTT DATA Chevrolet a sixth-place finish.” Dixon Finishes 11th in Time-Shortened Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana AVONDALE, La. (April 13, 2015) - Target Chip Ganassi Racing (TCGR) driver Scott Dixon finished 11th on the 2.74-mile road course at NOLA Motorsports Park in the Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana. The Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana marked the debut of the Verizon IndyCar Series at NOLA Motorsports Park. Dixon started the inaugural race in the 15th position after being forced to start by entrant points due to Saturday’s qualifying session being cancelled for weather circumstances. The No. 9 Brita Chevrolet dropped to the 20th position before a green flag pit stop on Lap 15. After returning to the track, a full-course caution flew for a car stopped on-track and allowed Dixon to move up to 18th. During a cycle of multiple cautions, Dixon climbed his way into the 13th position in just 12 laps. The caution flag flew once again on Lap 34 for a car off track, and the No. 9 team pitted for fuel only for their last pit stop of the day. After restarting in the 16th position, Dixon worked his way into the 11th position; however a time-restrained race cut the race 28-laps short. Dixon finished the inaugural Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana 11th. With the result, Dixon holds the 15th position in the Verizon IndyCar Series point standings with 19 markers, 50 points behind the points leader Juan Pablo Montoya. Notes of Interest The race morning warmup session was cancelled due to inclement weather. Before the qualifying session was cancelled on Saturday, Dixon was positioned to advance to the next round. Dixon led the final practice session on Saturday in dry conditions. The Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana began an hour earlier than scheduled due to weather and was a timed race of 105 minutes. TCGR Quoteboard Scott Dixon, No. 9 Brita Chevrolet: "It’s a shame we didn’t get much green-flag racing in today here at NOLA. I wish we could have gotten more racing in with the dry conditions after the start. Our Brita car was really fast in the last dry practice session of the weekend so we were optimistic for the race. It’s just one of those things where you spend a lot of time under the yellow flag.” Kimball Finishes Caution-Ridden Race in 14th at NOLA Motorsports Park AVONDALE, La. (April 13, 2015) – Novo Nordisk Chip Ganassi Racing (NNCGR) driver Charlie Kimball finished 14th on the 2.74-mile road course at NOLA Motorsports Park in the inaugural Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana. The Indy Grand Prix of Louisiana marked the debut of the Verizon IndyCar Series at NOLA Motorsports Park. After inclement weather cancelled qualifying and offset Kimball’s advancement to the top 12, the field was set based on Entrant points after the St. Petersburg race which meant Kimball would start 21st. Due to incoming weather and track conditions, the race was a timed race of 105 minutes and all cars were allowed to do a five-minute systems check prior to green flag. Kimball was able to gain one position and move up to 20th on the first lap and then continue to advance up to 17th until pitting for the first time on Lap 14 for slick tires. Immediately following NNCGR’s first planned stop, the field went yellow for a car stopped on track on Lap 15, which allowed the No. 83 NovoLog FlexPen Chevrolet to come in under yellow to top off on fuel. The field went green again on Lap 20 with Kimball in 19th on the restart. Another yellow flag came out immediately for a car in the run-off and the field would not go green again until Lap 27 with Kimball in 15th on the restart. After multiple cautions over the next five laps, NNCGR would take advantage of one of the cautions and pit under yellow for fuel and tires on Lap 32. The field went green on Lap 36 with an immediate caution as the No.

  • American Road Courses
    American Road Courses Road America Watkins Glen Meadowdale Laguna Seca Westwood Riverside Mid Ohio Every Road Course Daytona of Past and Present in the United States Mosport and Canada Sebring Barber Miller Rob Semmeling American Road Courses Page 2 Introduction This file lists all permanentpaved road courses - i.e. non-oval racing circuits - in the United States and Canada. In most cases, 'permanent' is synonymous with 'purpose-built'. However, some circuits were not purpose-built but actually started out as tempo- rary courses. Florida's Sebring International Raceway, for example, was originally a temporary airfield course, laid out over the runways of Hendricks Field. Likewise, Portland International Raceway in Oregon evolved from a street course. Both circuits are nowadays permanent facilities. The starting point for this list was the 2003 edition of Allan Brown's book "A History of America's Speedways: Past & Present". This is an indispensable reference work for which Allan cannot be praised enough. However, in the book the road courses are a bit buried between the vast number of ovals. Listing them separately gives a better overview. Also, I found the information in the book is not always accurate. It is an excellent basis for further research but the data should be treated with great care. I have done my best to present the most correct and accurate info in this file, although there may well be errors here and there. In general, there are three main types of American road courses. The most interesting are the 'pure' road courses which were built specifically for road racing.

  • New Orleans Ranks 12Th Among U.S. Cities for Infrastructure Jobs, Report Finds
    New Orleans ranks 12th among U.S. cities for infrastructure jobs, report finds TED JACKSON / THE TIMES-PICAYUNEThe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dredge Wheeler works near head of passes in the lower Mississippi River, along with 5 other dredges keeping the channel open for shipping traffic, Tuesday, March 20, 2012. In the foreground is a river pilot boat headed downriver (and past the Wheeler) to pilot town. Print By Katherine Sayre, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune Email the author | Follow on Twitter on May 09, 2014 at 7:20 AM, updated May 09, 2014 at 7:21 AM Workers operating refineries, engineering bridges, hauling containers and performing other labor focused on the nation's infrastructure make up nearly 13 percent of the New Orleans metro area workforce, one of the highest rates of infrastructure jobs in the country, according to a report released Friday. In total, infrastructure jobs -- defined as supporting the nation's assets in energy, trade, transportation, public works and other sectors -- make up 11 percent of the U.S. workforce, more than previously thought, according to the report from The Brookings Institution. Over the next decade, infrastructure jobs will grow by more than 9 percent, the report said, and 2.7 million workers will be needed to fill open positions from turnover and aging workers retiring. Researchers with Brookings' Metropolitan Policy Program took stock of the nation's infrastructure jobs, defining 95 occupations in 42 industries from civil engineers and urban planners to river pilots and and petroleum pump operators, calling it the first report of its kind.

  • Mouser and Molex-Sponsored Driver Bourdais Scores Second Consecutive Fast 9 Start at Legendary Indy 500
    US Headquarters 1000 N. Main Street, Mansfield, TX 76063, USA (817) 804-3800 Main www.mouser.com For Immediate Release Mouser and Molex-Sponsored Driver Bourdais Scores Second Consecutive Fast 9 Start at Legendary Indy 500 May 23, 2019 – Mouser Electronics, Inc. will be rooting for Sebastien Bourdais and the Dale Coyne Racing with Vasser-Sullivan team as they put their grit and bold strategy to the test at the 103rd running of the famed Indianapolis 500 on May 26. In qualifications, Bourdais pushed the Mouser-sponsored No. 18 car to earn a spot in the Fast Nine shootout, where he averaged 228.621 miles per hour to move up to a seventh-position start at Sunday’s race. Mouser is proud to again team up with valued supplier Molex to sponsor Bourdais and the Dale Coyne Racing with Vasser-Sullivan team for the 2019 NTT IndyCar Series. The Mouser- and Molex-sponsored car won the Indianapolis 500 in 2013, with Tony Kanaan behind the wheel. The global electronic component distributor first sponsored IndyCar racing in 2011 as an inventive way to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies. Behind the wheel of the Mouser- and Molex-sponsored No. 18 car, Bourdais has two top-five finishes in just five races so far this season, earning him the No. 8 spot on the points standings. The four-time Indy CART champion is just 21 points out of the top five, and Indy 500’s double points system could be just the boost he needs. After the Indianapolis 500, the series travels to Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix doubleheader on June 1 and 2, DXC Technology 600 at Texas Motor Speedway on June 8, plus seven more races before ending the season at the Grand Prix of Monterey on September 22.

  • Spotter Guide
    FAST FACT The highest recorded temperature in the U.S. was 134° F (56.7° C) in Death Valley, Calif., on July 10, 1913. The highest recorded track temperature during an Indy car race was 137° F (58.3° C) on July 7, 2013 at Pocono Raceway. Graham Rahal raises his fist in celebration after taking the checkered flag at his home track of Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, putting him within nine points of championship frontrunner Juan Pablo Montoya. John Cote/IMS Photo WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: MONTOYA LOOKS TO TIGHTEN GRASP ON LEAD: With wins at St. Petersburg and the Indianapolis 500, Juan Pablo Montoya remains atop the Verizon IndyCar Series point standings. The Colombian, who has won four of his previous 10 500-mile races, leads Graham Rahal by nine points and Scott Dixon, Helio Castroneves and Will Power are within striking distance. Can Montoya repeat at Pocono and strengthen his hold on the series championship lead? ANDRETTI SEEKS BREAKTHROUGH WIN AT HOME TRACK: Marco Andretti will compete in a virtual hometown race at Pocono. Andretti can lean on family ties for some advice as Pocono is one of two tracks where all three generations of racing’s most famous family have had success. Andretti’s grandfather, open- wheel great Mario Andretti, won the 1986 race, while his father Michael won pole for the race in 1986. Marco claimed the pole for the race in 2013. KARAM RACES AT HOME: Like the Andretti family, Sage Karam hails from nearby Nazareth, Pa., and will be racing in front of friends and family.
