As a spaniard I'm really impressed with the american crowd. They seem so supportive and cheerful for a guy that they really don't know much about... I think that is a lesson for us F1 fans.

I was impressed too. It looks like Indycar fans are a great example of good sportsmanship. Of course, they enjoyed the publicity that ALonso brought to them, but most people I've seen in interviews and such seem like they genuinely respect him and Formula 1. F1 fans could use some of that attitude.

@@amjan if you know anything about F1 and Alonso you would know that Alonso won his F1 championships mainly because his consistency. Obviously he was fast, if you are not fast you won't win anything. But in 2005 McLaren was way faster than Renault, but Alonso was incredibly consistent throughout the whole season. In 2006 Renault was the fastest in the first few races of the season, but then Ferrari was just unbeatable by the the second half of the season, despite that Alonso kept consistent and won the championship 1 race before the ending. Many will say that Fernando won that year due to Schumacher engine failure at Suzuka, but those people seem to forget that Alonso's engine also broke the race before at Monza.

I was there and honestly i've never been more excited to see a driver before. There were so many people that went there just to support him and all the atmosphere and feeling you got when he was driving from the fans was like none other.

I went to Indy once during the 2009 race. I sat in the north stands between Turns 3 and 4. When the cars were going through for the practice laps, they all sounded like they were all broken to some degree; however, their first lap through at top speed was a totally different sound. They all sounded like pure music in symphony.

Great to hear people cheering for Alonso, he is a true racer, this is a win win situation for everyone who loves racing, Alonso is a living legend, we will remember what he did, even if he does not win. Go Alonso, go. Vamos!!!

its great to see the americans get behind him,ive read so much hate and jealousy,this was a refreshing video

Of course, they're ecstatic to have him in the race, it's fantastic for the image of the event and the series. It's the F1 fans who are mad that Alonso seems to prioritize Indy over Monaco. Edit: I suppose what I'm trying to say here is that Alonso puts value in the Indy 500, which a vast majority of F1 fans see as a crappy or at least subpar race. Furthermore, some people (being a minority, fortunately) believe that it shouldn't be worth Alonso's time altogether and feel the need to point out flaws of the series and the race on these videos.

I'm not sure why you think F1 fans as a whole are mad that Alonso is skipping Monaco for the Indy 500? His car is rubbish this year, he has DNF'd for 3 races and came 12th and 14th for the other two. I think the majority of F1 fans are happy that he's enjoying himself again, and showing the IndyCar world what he can do with a good car.

If youre a motorsport fan, you'd appreciate how beautiful and fast IndyCars are, and always have been, those things are amazing

As a Spaniard, you guys in USA know how to have fun, I hope I can be at Indy 500 someday enjoying with all of you that amazing week

The way he handled that right turn was just amazing!

Thanks to Alonso and that wonderful crowd, this Indy 500 will be watched all over the globe instead Monaco's F1 GPrix. Win Win situation

Best driver in the world. Chills every time watching this!

Anyone else here after Alonso got bumped from the Indy 500? 😔

Indy 500 fans have been the best and most welcoming.

We really need this more in Motorsport. Not enough of the top talents across the major disciplines try to crossover. Kimi Raikkonen and Alonso are the only drivers in the modern F1 era to really do it. Excluding those who have ran in WTC or Le Man etc.

That's nice to see. I can tell you watch F1 but I am sure not everyone in the grandstand does and it's cool to see how much people like him. He is a nice guy good sense of humour and fast. I want Hunter Reay to win but if Alonso is the man beating him I will not mind at all

Very proud European today ... a very sad one also with the passing the wonderful Kentucky kid Nicky Hayden. Hope Fernando stays safe and does that grand old race proud.

So cool...I enjoyed my two days working with him at the Brickyard. I'm bummed the speed wasn't there when McLaren flew me in to help him, but it ain't over yet! Great video, David...thx for uploading.

David Land, Thank you for filming all of this & then putting it all on youtube for all of us who will never get to see this insane race in real life.

Thanks for posting- great Video. Enjoyed the fast 9 today.

still one of my favorite racing videos of all time! what an amazing year for the 500!!

Great Video! Its just like being there in the stands. I can't wait for May! Thanks for posting!

Thanks for publishing ! I'm watching Indy for the first time great to see alonso doing well!! Dan from England!

That was a great run .. but as we know from F1, Alonso is not necessarily the fastest in qualifying, but he is super consistent in races. So I hope he has a good race.

Never watched Indy before but as a massive F1 fan have to watch how Alonso gets on. He sees to be learning pretty quick, I'm loving the whole Indy spectacle, cant wait to watch the race. I think more F1 drivers will follow in Alonso's foot steps :)

Thanks for the video!

Great video & Great upload. Especially at the end with the Delta Force music.

David Land, that was great, felt like I was in the stands. Thanks!

Fernando is my favourite driver . he's so fast .I'm UK and put alonso over any UK driver eg Hamilton

Biggest F1/indycar link since Nigel Mansell.....great to see Indy back on the European radar

Thanks for posting. He's a great driver and it's great to hear you guys are excited about having him in the Indy 500, I'm sure the race will be a whole lot more interesting than the Monaco GP.

enjoyed that mate. been totally hooked since I started watching Fernando. been to le mans, love to go to indy next.

Absolutely AWESOME. LOVE it.

No matter how you slice it, this is a great and historic thing for motor racing, in general. Indycar is getting a huge fan boost, as is F1. There is no loser as a result of Alonso going to do the Indy 500. Debate all you want, but everyone wins with Alonso doing this event.

Awesome video, the reaction of the people is amazing. When his engine failed in the race and he got out of the car, hearing the crowd's ovation made me so proud, he deserves all the credit he gets. Grande Fernando, capolavoro! "Hoc signo vincitur inimicus!"

Thanks for sharing this video. It's great hearing the Speedway PA announcers. Makes me feel like I'm there.

Brilliant coverage!

Carlos I am also proud of him and i am from the U.K. He has always been my favouirite driver and i think always will. As you say the Americans show a lot of respect but they are car /racing lovers Motorbikes and all. This Indi thing looks nuts one mistake and its hello wall OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!!!! Anyway you guy's have a good race Have a good time and ENJOY YEAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

this is awesome, thank you.

I ve been a long time f1 fan and i dont know much about racing in the US,but i will definitely watch the race if there will be a live stream or something.Indycar looks fun and i like the atmosphere fans create in the ovals.Hope to see a great race.

Enjoyed watching this post. Liked the fact you used the theme from Delta Force.

Alonso is a true racer, skips the Monaco GP to run the Indy 500, very cool! Hope he tries again when he retires from Aston Martin!

This is great! 😄😄😄

Alonso can drive anything with 4 wheels and an engine. He's amazing

Nice video... Delta Force song at the end cool 👏👍

hahahaha love the commentary from the guys filming

great use of the DELTA FORCE theme at the end! loved it and you go Alonso! AVANTI FER!!!! AVANTI!!!!!!!

Going to be watching my first Indy 500 tomorrow on BTSport so I can watch Alonso. Been watching him for years in F1. Without doubt one of the best F1 drivers in history. Tremendous skill and race craft. He's also a card magician! :)

great video

Awww what a lovely video, thanks for all your support, ok didn't turn out well the 2nd time around by we've all seen what he can do, he'll be back, hopefully in 2021

Thank you for that video. There is something so pure about hearing the crowds reaction without the commentators.

I've followed Fernando before he got in F1 , hes a great guy and an awesome driver. I'm glad to see him in IndyCar. I hope he takes the WIN at Indy...........GO! ALONSO GO!

It is amazing how fast he has gotten used to Indy and the IndyCar. I feel he has a chance.

Thank you for that Knowing i May not see pole quals this year for the first time in 40 yrs

Alonso is a joy to watch, he deserves a lot more than what he has achieved, looking forward to watching him at Indy 2019...he might win if his engine doesn't give way....

great seats dude!

Oh how times have changed

Those are awesome seats! turn 1 and turn 2 and then can see the whole front straight. nice!

Alonso honestly isn't the worst driver on the field. He is one of the best drivers on the field no doubt.

First time I watch a Indy500 video and I guess this is true for many Europeans. Indy should thanks Alonso, in Europe we generally just watch Formula One.

I sense that Alonso is going to be one of the greatest names in Indy history. Formula One used to be great a few years back, but now listen to these Indy cars' engines. They sound exactly like what F1 should sound like or even better. Good move, Alonso.

Raff Silver Alonso isn't staying in Indycar. This was a one-time thing he did as a favor to McLaren. Also, the reason the engines sound different is because the Indycar V8s rev to about 12-13k, while the F1 V8s and V10s approached 18-20k.
