      That was actually an interesting race.

          Bill Monger crash in Formula 4. Last I saw, he's in the hospital, but OK.

            OK is a relative term. It took 90 minutes to get him out of the car because they were trying to save his legs. They did. For now... :-(

              Like I feared, anything but OK.

                Interesting news conference at barber with Alonso, Zak Brown and Andretti.

                Brown seems to want Mclaren entries in the 500 an annual event.

                Alonso for his part has a hilarious response when asked about F1 drivers responses "some are not happy with anything in life..."😈

                Gotta admit I'm getting very excited for Indy but more so for the future of INDYCAR with new cars coming and a new tv contract coming and Steinbrenner, Carlin and Mclaren likely coming on-board soon.

                  Definitely agree that Indycar is moving in the right direction. They seem to be receptive to the input from their stakeholders, all of whom have incentive to make Indycar better. NASCAR is on the downswing so this is a good time to keep moving the needle in the right direction for Indy.

                    Not open wheel racing, but related to this post- Dale Jr is going to retire at the end of this season.

                    Can IndyCar take advantage of this HUGE star leaving the other series?

                      I think they can. Push the new car, get the new tv contract settled with all races on NBC, start promoting drivers and their stories over minutiae like reds vs black tires or aero kits no-one cares about.

                      Scott Dixon is within the top 6 all-time in victories, Newgaden is the next Mears, Bourdais is back with a vengeance, Hinchcliffe is on the rise, there are many stories to tell...inclufing Colton Herta with 2 wins and a 2nd in his first 4 Indy lights races, and as mentioned below, Steinbrenner, Mclaren etc

                        Absolutely! I think it plays right into the hands of the momentum Indycar is building and that NASCAR seems to be losing. Looks like the tv ratings doubled over last year's numbers for HIGPA.

                            INDYCAR needs to overhaul their short-oval package completely. The fans in phoenix should get a refund.

                                It was about as interesting in terms of passing as the F1 race from Russia was.

                                Which shouldn't happen on a circle track.

                                (we will ignore the problem that some very badly timed yellows messed up the competition massively- most of the field got lapped thanks to a badly timed yellow)
