2011 Indy Lights season
Encyclopedia
The 2011 Indy Lights season is a season of open wheel
motor racing in which cars' drivers will compete against each other using cars which conform to the Indy Lights set of motor racing regulations. It is the 26th season of the Indy Lights series and the tenth sanctioned by IndyCar where the Firestone Indy Lights series acts as the major support category for the Izod Indycar Series. It will begin March 27, 2011 in St. Petersburg and end on October 16 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway
and features thirteen events: six on ovals, one on a permanent road course, and six on temporary street courses.
The season will feature the series' first non-IndyCar Series
support race since the 2007 Liberty Challenge
when it will race as the headliner for the Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières. It will be Indy Lights' first return to Trois-Rivières since 1998. The series will also race at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the first time since 1995 and will race on the new Baltimore street circuit in support of the IndyCars.
After nine rounds, the series is being led by American driver Josef Newgarden
, driving for the Sam Schmidt Motorsports
team. Newgarden holds a 63-point lead over Argentine driver Esteban Guerrieri
.
Josef Newgarden took his second series victory, and with erstwhile championship leader Conor Daly
not contesting the oval events of the championship, Newgarden assumed the championship lead. Newgarden's Sam Schmidt Motorsports
team mate, Bryan Clauson dropped back from his début pole, with Newgarden and Víctor García
each leading part of the first lap before Newgarden assumed it at the line. Stefan Wilson
, Anders Krohn
and Esteban Guerrieri
also led the race at stages prior to Newgarden taking the lead for good on lap 15. Krohn had undone his work to advance to the front by spinning under caution – after Victor Carbone
's crash – which put him to the rear of the field, but pitted for new tires, and eventually made his way back up the field. The second caution period was caused by Gustavo Yacamán
spinning into the wall and was eventually collected by Juan Pablo Garcia
and James Winslow
. Yacamán was transferred to Methodist Hospital
with neck pain.
After Peter Dempsey
spun under the yellow, Duarte Ferreira
brought out the third caution a lap after the restart, spinning in Turn 2 and collected the car of Brandon Wagner
, ending the race for both drivers. After a waved off restart, again one lap was run before a caution period was necessitated; Clauson, Krohn and Krohn's Belardi team mate Jorge Goncalvez
went three-wide into Turn 1, with Goncalvez clipping the rear-left tire of Clauson's car. Krohn spun in avoidance, as Goncalvez went into the barrier on the outside of Turn 1, before impacting the inside wall halfway down the straight between Turns 1 and 2. The impact broke the car into two pieces with the tub going onto its side along the track before hitting the retaining wall in Turn 2 and righted what was left of the car. Goncalvez was also transferred to Methodist, but was said to be alert and awake. The debris from the crash prevented the race from returning to green – resulting in an end tally of 22 of the race's 40 laps running under caution – and Newgarden took victory ahead of team mate Guerrieri, Víctor García, Wilson and Clauson, with only 10 of the 18 cars that started the race running at the flag.
Open wheel car
Open-wheel car, formula car, or often single-seater car in British English, describes cars with the wheels outside the car's main body and, in most cases, one seat.

went three-wide into Turn 1, with Goncalvez clipping the rear-left tire of Clauson's car. Krohn spun in avoidance, as Goncalvez went into the barrier on the outside of Turn 1, before impacting the inside wall halfway down the straight between Turns 1 and 2. The impact broke the car into two pieces with the tub going onto its side along the track before hitting the retaining wall in Turn 2 and righted what was left of the car. Goncalvez was also transferred to Methodist, but was said to be alert and awake. The debris from the crash prevented the race from returning to green – resulting in an end tally of 22 of the race's 40 laps running under caution – and Newgarden took victory ahead of team mate Guerrieri, Víctor García, Wilson and Clauson, with only 10 of the 18 cars that started the race running at the flag.
