.GrahamRahal's Indy500 outing in place of the injured Stefan Wilson comes at the cost of not being allowed to ask Chevrolet anything about its engine. Story:
Rahal admits he has “spent my entire career with Honda”, and when asked by Motorsport.com if there were any subjects he’s not allowed to ask about the engine side, he replied: “Basically, I’m not allowed to ask anything. But that’s OK. I’m appreciative of the opportunity and that’s all I need.
“I don’t really need to know a lot, I just need to know when they want me to go where, and how fast they want me to go.” Wilson underwent successful surgery on Wednesday night, for a T10-T12 posterior fusion and internal fixation to the fracture, and said: “I’m really pleased with the results and feel a lot better today. I’ve been able to get on my feet and walk around. The recovery journey starts now.”His replacement Rahal says Friday’s two-hour Carb Day final practice session will be vital to get a feel for his new ride.
“We’re expecting some gusty winds so see how the car is affected by the wind and check how the car brakes coming into the pits. For me, I’m going to need to learn a lot more than I normally do.”
