I met her last year at the race in Ohio. She is a very upbeat lady and very impressive driver, especially considering she is not on one of the top teams.

Purdue University logo on her car... BOILER UP!!!

I got to meet an talk with her today. She was the only driver talking to people at the track today. She was walking around talking pictures and signing autographs even with her burnt hands. She deserves a win this season.

she's so fun to listen to!

@gretzkysyotes Yep, Dallara 1st gen. Actually "Porkchop" (as the HVM refers to the back up car) is a 2003 model and is 30 pounds heavier than the one destroyed in practice.
A lighter chassis helps engineers to place weight bars strategically to meet min weight required but more importantly to modify the car’s balance and attitude, the problem with a heavier chassis is that you can not distribute weights as much as you would want to because you’ll make the car heavy.

She's tough as a rock. And she has the speed in her right feet. I hope she can win a race as sooner as she can.
-
She got airborne and suffered second degree burns TWO DAYS before this. Simona is beyond tough!
-
@gretzkysyotes Try about 35 pounds heavier! Good job, Simona!
-
