I also believed but the most recent Google images from 2023 suggest there are cars parked on the track again.

The driver in that clip is going round the oval in the wrong direction but the infield in the right direction.

Dont know how recent the videos are, but overdrive YouTube channel have used the infield in latest video.

Apart from the sand traps being overgrown looks in quite good condition

Because I recorded the main race... my sky box recorded indy nxt the rebranded indy lights

19 cars so a decent field and a few brits taking a different route including Jamie Chadwick with Andretti

Indy are now putting a 30m highlights show on Youtube a couple of days after the race, which is a good way to catch up if you missed it - or your Sky box fked up.

I was at Brands when they visited.

The two issues I feel where that it was on the Indy Circuit rather than the full GP circuit and the teams worked out that if they drive carefully they could save a pit stop, hence the whole field turned it into an economy drive playing follow the leader as the Indy circuit was so short they would lose a lap (or two) if they did an extra pit stop.

Put it on the GP circuit and set the strategy so they can race and I reckon it will be a spectacle to watch.

Thank you

May not be the best introduction to Indy though. Oval racing is very tactical and all about fuel saving. Everyone seems to drive to a delta and the person in the motor home with a pencil and calculator says when to 'go'.

Having watched F1, F2 & F3 (all very entertaining, especially the F2) looking forward to tonight's Indy at Texas.

As am I. Hoping the Scot McLaughlin can do something from 15th.

Who the fk has their given name as "Stingray Robb"? The only problem with IndyCar is the rednecks are allowed to enter

[JonChalk]

What IS O'Ward doing? Can he really keep this pace up?

Anything can happen in the next half hour.

Holy moly. I couldn't breath in that last stint.

Hats off. Those guys are not human!

Great race. Massive respect to the drivers and between the drivers.

Grosjean still has a lot to learn on ovals. Sometimes he looks a hero making dramatic moves but he only gets away with it because others avoid the accident he's creating. I'm sure a few drivers will be having a word after some of his more aggressive moves today.
