Indy Car

[williamp]

Mega race. It was a bit "F1... hold my beer! ( sorry, hold my Bud light..)"

Oh Grosjean...

[Muzzer79]

Im officially calling it - Indycar is more exciting than F1

Grosjean needs to learn that some days it’s better to accept 4th and finish in one piece.

[scrw.]

Was called during the race Palou eased up slightly going into the turn which caught Grosjean out, just picked up a touch of understeer, harsh result, car was good yesterday

Just caught up with this race as I was out, according to Indycar there were 1070 on track passes during the race. Such a shame it didn't end under green, poor Grosjean always snatching a potato when he's inches from the chips!

It was fab. Quite seriously , and in a good way , it reminded me of massive fields of Formula Ford 1600 slipstreaming at old Silverstone GP in the 70s . But a bit faster...

Finally caught up with the Texas race a few days ago - what a thriller.

Pity the stands looked so empty though.

Indycar still hasn’t retaken the impact and public image they had before the split. Tony George has a lot to answer for.

Heads up for long beach, love the panning shot of the fountain.

Oh Pato!!!!

Not the greatest of races, but still more enjoyable than F1 I feel.

Barber MSP practice and quali on Sky this evening - probably one of my favourite race tracks in top flight motorsport, just behind Spa and Donington (Silverstone comes in 4th only because it's less than 1/2 hour away and can nip there at last minute ).

Looking forward to this one.

Barber Motorsports track is great. I drove on parts of it with MB back in 2016. Also attached to it is the most amazing museum, especially if you like motorcycles.

If I call you a lucky bd, please can you take it as both humour and jealousy....

IndyNXT on now.

First one I've watched live - 420hp, 2-litre turbo Dallara cars - so analogous to an FIA F3 car, more or less, I think.

[JonChalk]

Also, another Brit in the series - Louis Foster - currently third.

Here for the race. As usual, the national anthem was... an interesting interpretation

[Muzzer79]

I’m watching too

Time for some exciting racing after the Baku support race

A bit 'too much' even for the captive audience I think!

[FourWheelDrift]

I didn't hear it, did it involve a banjo?

[df76]

I like the track. Just don’t crash..
