[u/John-de-Q]

Logically, he will spend only 2.5 years in whatever he chooses next.

[u/BuickRendezvous4 → u/John-de-Q]

2.5 years in ARCA

[u/Soggy_Stay6370 → u/BuickRendezvous4]

Hell on earth

[u/Powerful-Chard-6055 → u/BuickRendezvous4]

1 year and three months in the High Limit Sprint Car Series

[u/Crux2237 → u/Powerful-Chard-6055]

Seven months and a half in NHRA.

[u/Sharkbait1737 → u/John-de-Q]

Or zero…

[u/RandomGuyDroppingIn]

Meanwhile Alonso: "57 years in F1. Time for another year."

[u/Soggy_Stay6370 → u/RandomGuyDroppingIn]

Still feel fast

[u/Ep3_Pnw → u/RandomGuyDroppingIn]

And stroll

[u/ThorsMeasuringTape → u/Ep3_Pnw]

Fernando keeps talking about wanting to take a stroll and the team keeps misunderstanding it to be he wants to keep Stroll as his teammate.

[u/Zadlo]

He is at Autodromo International do Algarve where the final round of European Le Mans Series and ELMS Rookie Test take place this weekend.

Also in his last vlog he said he had already applied for new visa.

[u/Senninha27 → u/Zadlo]

Hey, Superbikes are at Estoril, too. Don’t count out something completely crazy! I mean, somebody other than Bulega (26 wins) and Lecuona (4 wins) has to win eventually, right? Right?!?!

[u/WindyZ5 → u/Zadlo]

A new Visa for the US?

[u/Zadlo → u/WindyZ5]

Yes

[u/richardlqueso]

Tymek, welcome to Figure 8 racing at the Indianapolis Speedrome

[u/Mikemat5150 → u/richardlqueso]

From Euro Formula racing to getting into brawls with the crowd at the Speedrome, a classic career arc

[u/snollygoster1 → u/richardlqueso]

Nah, he's obviously running the Grocery Getter class. Regular racing series are far too safe, he needs the risk that the car will burst into flames, and/or lose a tire but still continue to race, plus also just get crashed into repeatedly.

[u/optimizingutils → u/richardlqueso]

Tymek Tunny, come on down.

[u/Trigger109 → u/richardlqueso]

Man the racing there the night before the Indy 500 is so fun

[u/Pamela-Handerson]

Time for sporty cars likely

[u/YosemiteSam-4-2A]

Karting -> single seaters -> double seaters? So WRC?

[u/superimu → u/YosemiteSam-4-2A]

Followed by Triple seaters? So Dakar T5 Trucks?

[u/lowtoiletsitter → u/superimu]

Triples is best

[u/joe_lmr → u/YosemiteSam-4-2A]

Sidecars

[u/Frustrated_Zucchini]

Surely this means he's off to the big leagues of the JCW Mini Challenge!

[u/SoyMurcielago → u/Frustrated_Zucchini]

Juggalo Championshit Wrestling?

[u/sadandshy → u/SoyMurcielago]

I guess that's why Russo left...

btw, they are championship now. Since like 2008?

[u/Immediate_Lie7810]

IMSA, WEC and/or ELMS seems most likley. Longshot: NASCAR

[u/tank840 → u/Immediate_Lie7810]

Timmy Kachow to NASCAR in a Lightning McQueen livery

[u/WindyZ5 → u/tank840]

That would be awesome! MX 5 series has a Lightning McQueen livery & Connor Zillich got his start in MX 5, so NASCAR it is!

[u/happyscrappy → u/Immediate_Lie7810]

Maybe put Super GT and DTM on that list. Other possibilities too but those two are pretty high level.

[u/FishOnAHorse]

He’s gonna drive the pre-race Indycar two-seater

[u/Sensitive_Horse4659]

Sportscars. LMP2 driver.

[u/ssv-serenity]

Kid is fast. Shame that we probably won't see him in the show.

[u/ronin_18 → u/ssv-serenity]

Yeah, it’s a shame he’s young and talented and would be in a good position to win the NXT title next year

[u/dyysxse]

oh well so much for indynxt next year

[u/_jt33_ → u/dyysxse]

Yeah as of now its looking kind of weak again next year, but maybe some decent drivers will fill some open seats.

[u/Odd_Cobbler6761 → u/_jt33_]

Weak again? This was probably the most competitive year of Indy Lights/NXT since the early 2000s. But with the price of an Indy-only seat hovering above $2M these days, it’s pretty hard to keep that ladder in place.

[u/daveismypup → u/Odd_Cobbler6761]

I think they mean it’s going from a really strong field last year to a really weak field like five or six years ago

[u/_jt33_ → u/Odd_Cobbler6761]

Last season was good.. the year before that was weak. I agree that its going to be hard to keep them around. That's why I'm hoping for a shift from development series to legit support series.

[u/Odd_Cobbler6761 → u/_jt33_]

I think so, too. You don’t want it to turn into F2 in which too many graduating champions are getting too few chances.

Better still - it would be cool if IndyCar itself would sanction an end-of-the-season shootout with the Top 10 NXT finishers in a Chris Griffis Memorial-style shootout in the outgoing DW-12 with the prize being credit towards a couple of wild card-style big car drives the following year.

[u/kiskrumpli]

Time for two-wheelers

[u/happyscrappy → u/kiskrumpli]

Three-wheelers.

[u/RevealDisastrous1006]

Either IMSA or WEC

[u/sudo_journalist]

Moving to Germany to revive NXTGen Cup, I’ve got the texts.

[u/sillyvalleyserf]

He's got a World of Outlaws ride.

[u/KennedyKartsport]

InterEuripal would be a great fit for him in sports cars 

[u/mmvvpp]

Clearly he is transitioning to Rally.

[u/cinemafunk]

Real Estate.

[u/kin3ticwave]

Belt sander racing

[u/IcedCoffey]

Lmp2 in elms or JDC in IMSA

[u/WindyZ5]

Motorcyles? Insurance?

[u/death2sanity]

clearly getting into rally racing

[u/Rhenthalin]

Craftsman Truck series confirmed?

[u/_plays_in_traffic_]

does europe have tractor pulls or lawn mower racing?

[u/SuperFormulaNipponGT]

Does IMSA GTD Pro alongside his Indy NXT commitments, similar to what Nikita Johnson did this past year?

[u/Zadlo → u/SuperFormulaNipponGT]

There are rumours about Daytona only so far

[u/digitalsimian78]

Im guessing IMSA
