I don't know how it affects us in the UK but it seems that some of the rounds won't be on NBC. See the graphic at the bottom of https://racer.com/2021/09/19/ntt-indycar-series-an...

Peacock is the NBC streaming service, not sure what the other thing is.

They got 14 races (I think) on main NBC, with the rest going on NBCSN and Peacock I think, It won't affect us in the UK with SkyF1 but a big deal getting it on the "main" NBC channel.

In the USA they sometimes have to cut their coverage (if it runs long) of NASCAR/Indycar on NBCSN to go to college football or similar, it drives them nuts!

Peacock is NBC's streaming service, so still the same team doing the coverage. They have just expanded the full network TV coverage deal, which is a good boost for the series.

And a full season including ovals too! Could be in with a good run at the overall title.

The finale is on now, can't see anyone beating Palou, he's driven very well this year.

Edit: Complete donkey move From Ed Jones has ruined the fight.

Just started to watch Indy for the first time in years and years really enjoying it.


His first overtake into the corkscrew the other week was worthy of a full time drive. Less so the pass on Jimmy

Can’t believe Castroneves is still racing lol

Well done Alex Palou, second year in Indycars and bossed it. Mind you anyone that very nearly wins the Japanese Super Formula championship is pretty damn good.

Two seasons with no racing in the rain. What are the chances.

Enjoyed the season.

Great season. Shame that Grosjean didn't get rookie of the year.

Ed Jones ruining a potential showdown though frown

And Helio was a bit upset about Alex Rossi in practice https://twitter.com/i/status/1442207752718217217
