Post Welcome to IndyCar's first-ever street race!

The Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg will take place on a picturesque fourteen-turn 1.8 mile temporary course framed by the city's waterways and incorporating the runways of Albert Whitted Municipal Airport. Drivers are enthusiastic about the passing opportunities and the potential for quality racing on the St. Petersburg track.

IRL?

The course does seem interesting, with a very Cleveland-esque first corner.

Yeah, but what happens at the first right hand corner and they all turn left?

Give us a report after. Did you go to the ChampCar race there for comparisons?
