IndyCar Special Considerations
Performance and Features• Ability to customize site structure/behavior extensively • Ease of integration (e.g. race results)• Content management and maintenance workflows• Multi-device support• Design and UX flexibility
Reliability and Support• Handle spikes of race-day site tra!c (e.g. caching and clustering)• Availability of training and vendor support• Availability of documentation and active support forums
Facebook’s (New) Challenges
Facebook Trends• Overall growth of the Facebook population continues• Desktop use plateauing or receding (receding in mature markets, including the US)• Strong growth in mobile usage• The amount of information competing for Newsfeed Impressions continues to rise
Facebook, the Public Company• Facebook is accountable to its shareholders for growth and financial performance• Facebook’s revenue is driven by advertising dollars
An Interesting Paradigm• There is far more information available for the average Newsfeed than could ever be consumed• Mobile is on the rise, but mobile o!ers less real estate for advertising• Facebook derives profits from advertising
Facebook’s September Update - What Happened!?
“We made an update to the ranking algorithm to improve user engagement and reduce spam. This is beneficial to the platform overall as increased engagement and higher quality content are good for the ecosystem.”
Facebook’s September Update - What Happened!?
“We made an update to the ranking algorithm to improve user engagement and reduce spam. This is beneficial to the platform overall as increased engagement and higher quality content are good for the ecosystem.”
“We have seen quite a large fall o" (40-50%) [in impressions] globally across all of our clients pages ranging from 10k - millions of fans.”
- Zach Welch, Social Bakers
“Organic Reach -25% change, Viral Reach -45% and Engagement/Fan -17%”
- Chad Wittman, EdgeRankChecker
Performing While the Rules are Changing
The challenges for Brand Pages will continue on Facebook. Rumors have stated that Facebook is internally trying to reach 80% organic content and 20% sponsored (Facebook Ads) in the Newsfeed.
What Can be Done to Encourage Acquisition O! of Facebook• How can we acquire more Fans beyond Facebook’s borders?
What Can be Done to Encourage Visibility and Engagement O! of Facebook• How does content published from beyond Facebook perform?• How can we encourage users push content onto Facebook from a .com?• Why do most implementations only perform marginally?
Benefits of a Correct Facebook Like O!site Integration
Low E!ort• Implementing Like buttons and Open Graph tags correctly is generally a one-time activity
High Visibility• It’s becoming nearly impossible to gain Impressions of this volume on Facebook (without ads)
Generates Tra"c back to Site• Return rate of visitors from Facebook to one’s website is significant
Advocacy• Site visitors take the action that creates stories on Facebook• Stories visible to their friend network - trusted source
• Far di!erent than a Brand posting from a fan Page

Ganassi created his own Indy car team in 1990 and established a partnership withTarget that endures to this day.
Target Chip Ganassi Racing driver Jimmy Vasser captured the CART championshipin 1996. Alex Zanardi followed Vasser's lead and earned CART titles in 1997 and1998. With rookie driver Juan Montoya's championship in 1999, Ganassi becamethe first owner to earn four consecutive CART championships.
Montoya won the 2000 Indianapolis 500 for Target Chip Ganassi Racing, which wasmaking its first appearance at the Brickyard since 1995. In 2002, Bruno Junqueiraearned the pole position for the Indianapolis 500 and led 32 laps before engineproblems ended his day.

(Full careno responsibility).There are 24 3 litre Hydroplanesregistered here in N.Z. & mine wouldbe ranked 2nd or 3rd. It did run 4thin a World title held at Karapiro2008.So it is a very competetive craft.If there is any interest, I can send youphotos & a rough plan of where wewill be racing this coming season.I realise you are a contracted driver &possible would not be able to.We have our own Dunk Testing unit& would make this avaliable, so alicence could be issued.If this is something you wouldconsider doing, please advise.Tony Hall.

Race recaps: Team Penske starts season with bang
By Dave LewandowskiPublished: Nov 6, 2012
Reviewing the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series season, with a look toward 2013, too. Today it's thefirst two races:
Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg – March 25 on streets of St. Petersburg, Fla.
Helio Castroneves ended a winless drought of more than a year by winning the Honda Grand Prixof St. Petersburg for the third time.
Castroneves, driving the No. 3 Shell V-Power/Pennzoil Ultra Team Penske Chevrolet, passedTarget Chip Ganassi Racing's Scott Dixon for second place on the outside of Turn 1 on Lap 73 andwent on to score the 26th win of his Indy car career.
Dixon finished second in his Honda-powered car, followed by Ryan Hunter-Reay of AndrettiAutosport in a Chevrolet-powered car. James Hinchcliffe and Ryan Briscoe rounded out the topfive.
It was an emotional day for Castroneves, who dedicated his win to the late Dan Wheldon. Aftertaking the checkered flag, Castroneves stopped his car at Turn 10 and honored Wheldon, whocalled St. Petersburg home, by climbing the fence and patting the "Dan Wheldon Way" sign locatedthere.

Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama – April 1 at Barber Motorsports Park
Will Power held off Scott Dixon on a restart with 16 laps left to win the Honda Indy Grand Prix ofAlabama for the second year in a row.
Dixon, who was 3.3709 seconds behind in the No. 9 Target Chip Ganassi Racing car, has thedistinction of being the race runner-up all three years (twice to Power and in the inaugural race toHelio Castroneves). He broke a tie with teammate Dario Franchitti with 27 second-place finishes onthe all-time list and is one behind Castroneves.
Castroneves, the pole sitter, finished third to maintain the points lead in the young season andcontinue his resurgence after a disappointing 2011 season. He held off Graham Rahal in the No. 38Service Chip Ganassi Racing car by 0.2245 of a second.Simon Pagenaud finished fifth and James Hinchcliffe was sixth after starting on the front row for thefirst time in his IZOD IndyCar Series career.
