Maybe Jourdain needs work on qualifying. Considering that I do not think Jourdain has outqualified him since Long Beach (I think), maybe they thought Jourdain needed to work more with his engineers or more time with the car. But yeah, Allmendinger is totally kicking ass, which is so sweet. :rofl:

Perhaps Jourdain gives better feedback. Using one car to get the baseline is much ceaper than running two.

I don't think Russo is short on the bucks to test both cars.

From the looks of things why would you need an extensive test? Send one car for a fuel mileage check and load it back up. Hell they're out there testing in the middle of the day on a dusty track for a race that's going to be held late night on a track covered with truck rubber, what's the point?

Wasn't the track open till 10pm?

Those huge wings they were using should have had the track clean in a couple of laps! :laugh:

He just doesn't know what LVMS means.
