Got to say…..last year was a little bit formulaic until the last stage of the race.

This year however has been nuts from the start - great racing

Great race, really enjoying it.

Sorry. Not intended to be rude.

But I don't have the time to explain. I'm a Kiwi watching a Kiwi doing a great job at trying to win the Indy 500.

Long story short, they all have the same chassis built by Lola, they have a choice of Honda or Chevrolet power. It isn't an open race series like F1.

Lola closed years ago.

It's a Dallara chassis.

I knew that. Soz.

What a win! Well done Josef!

[Pedaller]

Why did Pato take the lead with 1 lap to go!?

[J6542]

What a finish. Now off to bed, up in 5 hours

[Speed Badger]

Wow what a last 20 laps! In fact overall a very good race.

[The Hypno-Toad]

Now THAT is how you do a last lap.

Wow.

[entropy]

That was....


INCREDIBLE!

[732NM]

Slightly more interesting than Monaco.

[Muzzer79]

I’m not a Newgarden fan, so a little disappointed in that respect but a fantastic race nevertheless

[robscot]

Superb motor race.

On YouTube the Monaco highlights on the official F1 feed are 8 minutes long.

I think that Indy 500 was one of the best races I’ve seen in a very long time.


& respect to Sky for putting it back onto “normal” SkyTV following the postponement on YouTube and not making anyone pay anything extra. If any one from them is looking in, thank you.

Oward probably scrubbed too much speed with that weaving. He is gutted again.

Apologies from a newbie pov, but Ive been watching INdy500 for a few years, but why is it only Chevrolet and Honda as the engine manufactures?
Seems like a poplar series.

No other manufacturers are interested; the series isn't popular enough to justify the expenditure required from them. Honda have been making noises about leaving the series. Aside from the Indy 500, viewer and spectator numbers just aren't high enough, hopefully that will change.
