The 2.439-mile, 14-turn road course incorporates portions of Turns 1 and 2 and the front straight of the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval and the remainder of the circuit is within the infield, allowing for great spectator viewing.

    These commercials are absurd. Missed 10 minutes of pristine green flag action to watch a Gran Turismo preview and Amica insurance propaganda. It’s two steps forward and 1.75 steps back with this series.

      It’s funny, outside of the US, which is by far the largest IndyCar market, you get much better coverage.

      I get ad free races here in Brazil in an open air tv channel, or streamed through their website. It’s great. The commentators are pretty competent too, though rather biased towards the few Brazilian drivers, but that’s to be expected.

        That’s great to hear especially that it’s available over-the-air. It makes me almost want to wait to watch the commercial-free replay than the live event.

    Gonna be interesting to see if Dixon can hold on, everybody else in the top 5 is looking pretty fast.

    By going 4 wide and forcing Armstrong to make contact, Palou may have inadvertently clinched the championship. That’s some insane luck barring a miracle from Newgarden.
