Has anyone else noticed that the livestream seems to be around 30s behind the live-timing ? Commentators keep referring to laptimes that are a lap behind the timing screen

They are practising for that two Ronnies sketch (answering the question before)

Scott Dixon, coolest king of understatement "it was a wild ride"

Alonso is going to do the Indy 500.

Am I right in thinking 4 Andretti cars all broke on Sunday? Fernando must have had deja vu

Doh!

I did read a quote from Michael Andretti who said that Honda offered a reliable but slower engine or a faster but potentially fragile one. He took the fast one and opted to roll the dice.

Presume he sent the other to McLaren F1....oh, but wait

I'd never even heard of that before

Eric Mc said:

Nice to see that the old Sato is still there

It is, but the commentators could not mention him without the prefix "Indy 500 Winner"

[2 sMoKiN bArReLs]

Well...MotoGP was a cracker. F1 Azerbaijan was a cracker...all we need now is IndyCar to step up to the plate!

Good result for Dixon

Indeed! It was a little dullsville though I thought

Looks like Newgarden's on a roll - 2 wins in a row and now also leading the championship

He did look good at Ohio

Last night's coverage by BT was a bit pants. They usually show all the laps with UK team talking when the USA crew take ads. This time we had all the ad breaks & three were yellows when we came back.

Well, shame about that for the rookie Wickens

Those screens are horible, worse than the halo for being able to see the driver.

Be interesting in the rain I'd imagine.

I enjoyed the race..just good to see some motorsport at last!

All, there is a 2020 thread here : https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Yeah, but this one's better

It never ceases to amaze me what a HUGE difference a yellow makes in IndyCar

[2 sMoKiN bArReLs]

Spoiler alert.

How on earth did Pagenaud get from 20th to third? Yellow flag madness

Geez, Americans are fat even looking at the mechanics.

Enjoyed it. Ready for round 2 now
