The team now wants from the Indy 500, the entire IndyCar season with a car with Visit Mexico City deny sponsorship. For the Indy 500, however, you could not qualify because Domínguez put the car in the second round in the wall - the first round was still one of the fastest, which was run on the day of qualifying at all. With the race at the Milwaukee Mile, the team then went to as now fixed 27 participants. The really designed only to 26 vehicles pit lane was specially adapted slightly. But so far, the team has a lot of trouble to go along the velocity in the ovals.
