With Caio Collet now signed with AJ Foyt Racing, that leaves just one seat at Dale Coyne Racing, and the unconfirmed third seat at Rahal Letterman Lanigan left to fill.

Yes, there is also uncertainty with Prema, but "officially" they have confirmed Callum Ilott and Robert Shwartzman.

Today's random find: Someone named "smokescreen" drove the Markham, ON INDYCAR layout.

Don't know this person, but the video gives a good idea of what the track looks like today as Enterprise Blvd, Parking lots and service roads around York University Markham.

Early look at the #MilwaukeeMile forecast: some rain to start the week then a shift to a drier pattern by Wed. Keeping an eye on a weak front late Friday with some potential showers…but for now Sat-Sun looks dry with great temps #IndyCar

I really don’t have any major changes to this forecast…only potential impact is possible low ceilings/visibility in morning…maybe some patchy light mist/drizzle in spots. Temps remain mild throughout. Winds should pick up each afternoon. #IndyCar

Here’s the Laguna Seca forecast for #IndyCar this weekend: no surprises in this one. 50s to mid-60s. Breezy in afternoon. Only potential impact is extent of low-level marine layer clouds in early AM..could get slight delay to early sessions (i.e. prac 2, warm-up), if conditions are right.

Friday #IndyTO weather brief: great conditions today..north wind this morning but should get a weak lake breeze by #IndyCar practice this afternoon. Sat looks good too. Still keeping an eye on next rain chance late Sat, but for now looks like everything departs by early Sun morning.

WED UPDATE: near 90Β° today in Toronto..cold front Thu, with rain exiting early PM..sets up exceptional weather Fri and Sat. Shifted timing of next system a little to the left..so added slight chance shower late Sat, with Sun rain chances favoring overnight/early AM for now #IndyTo #IndyCar

For your planning considerations, an early look at #IndyTO weather: week starts with hot/humid temps..then front on Thursday would break the heat..and Fri-Sat would be exceptional. Question mark for now is timing/strength of possible system Sunday..I’ll keep you updated as we get closer #IndyCar

Preview for Race 2 weather at Iowa Speedway tomorrow: a little warmer tomorrow afternoon, but with an earlier green flag time temps should actually be pretty similar to Race 1. Wind shift to the southwest…but not as breezy as today. #IndyCar

Yep. Per INDYCAR:

RACE CONTROL: Due to inclement weather, all remaining track activity today is canceled and will resume tomorrow. An updated schedule will be available shortly.

Skies are brightening up to the West, rain not as heavy but still falling. Lots of lightning nearby.

New current situation. We’ve been moved back from the glass and the wind has changed directions. And now big rain hitting. Getting tough to see back stretch from the Suite Building.

Don’t have much to change to the forecast as we head into Friday…I still see it as I described yesterday…seems pretty likely we’ll get some storms overnight/Friday morning…then I think radar settles down before becoming more active again late afternoon. I’ll have another update in the morning!

A probably β€˜too early’ look ahead to the Iowa Speedway forecast: key event to watch is timing of front late week…for now, looks like it moves through late Fri…if that holds it would open up Sat-Sun to sunny/dry conditions. Temps in 80s. #IndyCar #INDYNXT

Things that make us happy:

Being able to watch the @indycar and @indynxt race replays on FS1 @IndyCarOnFOX on the flight home!

Tune in now, it’s lap 25 of the @IndyCar race.

Yeah, we taped the race, but something fun about flipping channels and stopping when race cars appear!
