If there is ever a street circuit in the United States with IndyCar that is very famous and well-known by many, including celebrities who race this circuit in a Saturday race, it is the street circuit of Long Beach. The 1.968-mile, 11-turn temporary street circuit encircles the Long Beach Convention Center, which houses a Family Fun Zone and numerous displays during the race weekend and runs down scenic Shoreline Drive for some very fast, in-city racing. Should be another competitive race for the IndyCar series this week-end.

Are we picking the top 4 drivers, or has Indycar gone to a 4 person podium? If it is a 4 person podium, when did it change?

The Podium in IndyCar is the top three but you can get more points on here, if you pick the fourth place finisher along with your first three podium picks. A full explanation of the rules for Pick the Podium in IndyCar 2022 lies in the first post of the Pick the Podium F-1 Thread for the Bahrain Grand Prix race of 2022 in the Motorsports Forum. I suggest you trek over there an read it.

So much for Herta having the dominant car. Three Laps down and apparently something catastrophic happened?

No. These are supposed to be professional racecar drivers but one has to wonder sometimes.

Grosjean was closing and then Newgarden took off again.

Nine laps to go and Grosjean is fading. Newgarden is in his usual Long Beach rhythm!
