The real open wheel season is now upon us! Indy > F1 any day. I don't want to watch a billionaires parade and soap opera about over paid drivers and how they always like to shout "so dangerous" on the radio. I want to watch drivers fighting for positions and actually passing each other. Not just dive bombing after DRS zones and calling that racing. Looking forward to a interesting series. Should get real spicy once the motor change takes place after the 500. I really wish there were more races though to close some of the gaps in the schedule. That's my only complaint.

So we're not going to mention that one track official with flags

Never heard a commentator butcher a City name like this...

i put this in a few comments already...being a fan of both Indycar and F1. i'd say they are both on par with eachother after this race, P2P was useless as the whole grid was fuel saving for a 2 stop race, the primes and atls had no difference between them, and newgarden led for 90+ laps, was a boring 100laps, just hope the next race gets back to what makes this series good, because this races wasn't it

The race looked exciting but I refuse to bow down to NBC Peacock.

Newgarden was definitely making moves but definitely a snooze fest 😴 Hopefully see more on track drama next race

No wonder Colton was especially P.O.'ed and vocal about it, he got done by McLaughlin on restart, and you can see Newgarden pull a gap easily on the last restart, ridiculous. My question: with all of their tech, how didn't Andretti, McLaren and Gnassi realize what was going on? 50 HP over all the cars around you is not hard to see in telemetry I'm positive. And it would've been easily seen on the incar, unless Penske put in a dummy button and turned off the PTP lights, etc. etc. Maybe they did know, but decided to sandbag Roger and team Penske and especially Josef right before May...? Just a thought...
