If you're a sponsor, Indycar is like a good stock pick. Cheap right now but holds a respectable number of fans. Holds huge potential.
i love indycar and their fans! no one is snobby, great time too! please shine more light on this sport, it deserves it
I used to work for the Indycar Series (as a pilot) so I am slightly biased, but it’s absolutely one of the best motor racing series out there. This coming from a big F1 fan as well. Nothing compares to the uniqueness and skill it takes to compete in Indycar. Thanks for the love!
No power steering is a big shake up. Pretty sure all the former f1 guys have mentioned that. Its a hell of a lot more physical racing. Love it. Wish f1 had a few races a year where everyone gets the same exact car. Would be fun to just settle whose really good and whose just got the good engineers.
@@shrimpinpat Max would still be the best with Lewis a close second IMHO.
@@fegar1 well better get them both in Indycar and find out
@@shrimpinpatThey don't say its more physical...they say its more physical for the arms and less physical to the neck...
@@henry247being 100% honest I love both racing series in different ways but Indycar without a doubt requires drivers to be in the best shape possible. F1 uses more neck sure but they have pads on both sides of their heads. But I see your point
As a 30+ year McLaren F1 fan I started watching IndyCar when they joined the series. I prefer IndyCar to F1 now! The racing is closer, better overtaking, better crashes & it seems more down to earth and not snobby like F1.
I came across your videos last week & they're great. New subscriber here 😁
Welcome aboard. I will admit that, outside of strategy, the Indy GP was a fairly quiet race for IndyCar standards, although admittedly more exciting than what I've seen from F1 this year outside of the first lap.
@@lorddrac_dontaskmetodance I agree. It was a fairly quiet race but much better than the Miami gp which was a snooze fest 😂
I love both series but purely as racing entertainment it’s hard to top indy! I respect the engineering that goes into f1 but spec series are just so much more fun to watch
@@harrison862 IMSA racing with GTP, GTD, LMP2 racing all on one track more interesting than Indy
Same - don’t even watch F1 anymore
More indycar coverage. This was a lot better than expected
Indy Car isn't even close to F1 financially, but Indy Car is a much more RACE FAN FRIENDLY event. It's less expensive, more accessible and less celebrity-infested.
Thanks for coming to Indy. It's one of my favorite cities. The whole town knows racing.
Put some respect on Indycar's name!!! As a fan, the fact that the drivers and cars are so accessible is great. Something you can never do in F1 unless you're a VIP. And the racing is awesome! Virtually any driver can win any given race. Again, something you never see in F1. There's room to love both series!
It's being talked about stop getting mad
I enjoy both series and watch both series religiously. I like each series for certain things and not others.
That's the point Indy car is accessible while F1 is the pinnacle and way better in terms of quality
@@MuhammadNiz007 "quality" as in technology and innovation, yeah. On track action and fan interaction, no.
@@IloveNavaMau lol Who said I was mad? I'm not typing in caps! 😂
I’m honored to have made the background of the video around 11:20 and to have been photographed by you outside of the pagoda. The openness of IndyCar is something I love about it and is something that I think all F1 fans should experience. I hope you had a great time and hope to see you around our paddock again. As a side note, the guy with the massive mohawk is often around Indy, I’ve seen him many times before and he’s very easy to spot!
Kym needs to cover all the IndyCar races 🏎️🏁
Definitely on the non F1 weekends that IndyCar has a race!
Kym, I want to personally thank you for coming to Indianapolis to cover the GP and sharing this video. So glad you mentioned the accessibility of drivers and teams. I dont think its talked enough how easy it is to meet your favorite driver or team owner. Indycar goes to great lengths to make themselves accessible. I would really hope that you would decide to cover the Indy 500 instead of going to Monaco. I can understand the joy of Monaco lifestyle, but as racing enthusiast best advice i can tell you is to experience the 500. Lastly I hope you urge more photographers and journalist to cover Indycar as they deserve so much more publicity than they are getting from European media. So again thank you for checking out Indycar and hope to see more of it.
Kym go to the indy 500 and Long Beach. Those are the two most iconic indycar races. Love that you come out here and visit indycar. Love you Kym.
The Indy 500 takes place on the same day as the Monaco Grand Prix, which we all know is Kym's favorite race, so he'll be in Monaco.
I started to watch Indy when Ilott and Lundgaard moved. What can't you not love Indy when the racing is better than the High Tech Engineering War F1 is now.
Gate checking bags happens all the time on those Embraer jet flights. I think people bring bigger carry ons because they know they will be gate checked and they'll get it right back rather than risk it going missing as a checked bag.
This is awesome content Kym. I would loveeeeee you to cover more Indy content. Atleast the major races like Indy 500, Texas and Long Beach. Tell me you are doing Indy 500 plsssss… 🏎️
The Monaco GP is that day so he won't be there
Thanks for interviewing me (mohawk guy). I thought you seemed familiar but couldn't place it but I've definitely seen your content before. While the cars in F1 are superior indy has the better races and its possible for most cars to win in any race. I like F1 but the racing is mostly boring, with few on course passes. I don't think it can gain F1s popularity, but it is definitely better racing if that's what you are looking for.
Kim nice meeting you in Vegas in February. What a missed opportunity to put some IndyCar drivers in free practice 1 and put some F1 drivers in the IndyCar GP it would be much smarter to work together then work against each other or pretend the other doesn't exist maybe someday the Geniuses at Liberty and Penske will figure this out and work together
5:10 😬 be careful holding that can up in public… especially as you are in the south 😂
Lol. Is it really that serious down south about bud light?
Tbf anyone holding a Budweiser can needs to be checked because it’s tastes like stale water
Love these travel vlogs Kym. Loved seeing Dario Franchitti, haws our favorite Indycar driver, miss him terribly! Be safe sir and thank you always!🙏🏻✈️
Nice to see some Kym-I fans out there too! Bravo on the growing support!
Love your take on Indy kym. Stay passionate/ vamos Pato.
Thank you for the full IndyCar race video!!!!
Love the Indy Car v\coverage !!! What a bonus !!!
Another quality video from you Kym....Thank you!
Loved it. Enjoyed your take on Indy racing and the area. Cheers mate.
Love the variety....another great video
Love this new format where you're interviewing and holding a mic. Hope we see more of this soon!
Love it!!! Great to see you talking to the fans as well!
Nice job Kym. Enjoying your videos.
I was at the Indy GP! Hope your stay in Indiana was good and we put our best foot forward for you! :)
Loved this roving documentary style. It's a nice set up. Great video.
A real man pleasure to meet you at IMS. Great video, hope you and your son had a great time.
Great video as usual Kym!! I was gutted I couldn't be your vegemite hook up this year but 😂I'm glad a fan brought you some and came through 💯
I've been flat out at work and wasn't paying attention that you was in town😴 I'm glad you had a good time and hopefully Indy treated you and your son well!!
I'll try and catch up with you in Vegas this year 🎰 cheers mate 👍🏻
Thank you for sharing the videos from kym
Kym, I loved the video so upbeat and bouncy.
great content guys, thanks. keep them coming.
Have to say. No matter the cluster eff you find yourself in, you are always always always positive and just go with he flow. Good on ya mate. Also, love the jean shorts. I haven't rocked them since high school in the late 80's early 90's! You are gonna be a trend setter!
This is such a good video!
Weldone Kym and Jayce
Firehawk is the best mascot in sports, shame you couldn’t get an interview
This is brilliant, Kym! I loved the interviews with the people about the track. It would be great if you were able to do that with F1!
Not possible I’m afraid
Indycar is Indycar and it is the best racing, the oval racing always !
Loved this video and the access that you showed. Indy car is an elite series with super competitive racing. I wish you would cover more indy car and maybe even a nascar race! Also the interviews were great that should be a normal thing!
Nothing like spending a day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I love that the secret of how good Indycar is has finally started to get out. It’s great to see it embraced by such an international audience.
LOL, it is spec series and only national is scope.
@@soisaidtogod4248 you can always count on toxic F1 fans to leave a stupid comment.
thank you so much for your videos, watching from Panama.
Hope you enjoyed your time in the USA. I get more and more into indy car and less and less into f1. F1 was what got me interested. I am a drive to survivor but I watch religiously. Have f1tv with multiviewer so i can see everything across 3 screens..... but INDY Car has so much more action and drama. You don't have the flashy personalities or the ritz and glam of F1 but you do have RACING! Also how wild you ran into someone you had met before and find out her sons racing at the race you are going to. Wild
I love both, and have been a long time fan.
Indy is characterized by a lot of crashes and overtakes…it can get a bit desensitizing.
F1 is characterized by the opposite…drama is the exception as opposed to the rule and this makes it all that more special when it happens.
Both are great series. I think I like F1 a bit more because I love the Constructors aspect of it and the technical innovation.
@@mamavswild Why do you say its characterised by a lot of crashes?
If you are meaning small incidents of wheel to wheel contact then I agree because that's what happens with close racing series.
But if you are talking about big crashes, they are becoming relatively rare especially outside of the ovals and even then its like 3-4 big crashes a year which is about on par with F1 over the last couple of years.
Blimey Kym you had a well deserved army of fans at Indianapolis mate! 😮
Sounds like brolley weather at Imola so I bet your waterproofs will get an airing... Thanks Kym for your continued high quality content! 😊
Bravo Mate! Great Little VLOG of USA travels and Indy Car! Book a trip to the St.Pete Gran Prix or Long Beach to watch some great Indy Street Racing! Cheers from the States! STAY PASSIONATE ABOUT INDY CAR! LOL!
goated as always kym!
So excited to be there next weekend!
wish you were there to see the indy 500
The greatest spectacle in racing...
Kym and Pato are boys 🤜🏻🤛🏻 that spad at the end of the video 😃
wow so much more access to places and people than F1, what a great change. thankyou
It was great to meet you!
And back at’cha
Your facial expression after trying the brisket said it all...
brilliant video Kym
that was really fun to watch
12:23 When the lady says "stay passionate!", you can hear that Midwest nasal accent in just two words!
Like the canon top, good insightful video
I loved this video!!
It's happened to me 2-3 times, in which the plane ends up realizing it won't have enough space and has to get all remaining passengers boarding to check their bags. Not ideal but at the very least it's a checked bag for free, for what it's worth. Maybe it happens in domestic travels or short flights in other countries as well, I don't know.
Hope to see you in Portland! Bummer, just realized that's Imola. Max will have his third wrapped up by then, so come back to the states where practically anyone has a chance. Go Callum!
Go Max! 🏆🏆🏆😄
And I like Callum, big Herta fan as well.
As a lifelong f1 fan I can say that I am wholly disappointed with the way that in pretty much less than 1 season after the changes to encourage racing and reduce 1 team dominance we're back to 1 team dominance, now I get this is all about who can develop the better car but it does make a good end spectacle for the consumer
Hey Kym - now you know why I drive a Honda Accord! Gas is WAY MORE EXPENSIVE in Canada and I only drive 5,000 - 8,000 Km's per year but still feel it!
In March 2020, gasoline prices went really low as the pandemic lockdown started. Here in Texas, where gas is refined and cheaper than other states, the price went down to $1.39 a gallon. My local Kroger has a fuel points rewards program, along with a credit card, that allows a discount of up to $1.25 a gallon. This meant I filled up my car for 14 cents a gallon. Total bill for just over 10 gallons was $1.47. Not per gallon, per full tank! I was wondering if it would go any lower but it didn't. It was crazy.
Really hope you do a season in Indy one year Kim!
One thing I wish you would explore is how so many non-American have found such a good quality of life in the states. Grosjean just moved his wife and three kids to Miami. Bourdais lives with his family in St. Petersburg and actually became a naturalized citizen. I saw him win in IMSA at Laguna Seca Sunday. They all seem to be very happy what they’re doing here.
Because wealrhy race car drivers, born in Europe, have it so tough making it over there?
Just flew through the Indy airport last week, none of the old cars were up yet! just the new ones
#DaleYeah So glad you went to the GP @Indy
Kym fantastic video ❤❤❤❤
Great video! Love indycar
Just needs it's own Netflix docuseries to get as popular as F1
Go wstch 100 days till Indy.. That's their show.
City BBQ is good stuff. We always have them cater for our office lunch meetings.
As an ex-Embraer pilot, mechanical issues are constant and bag space is non existent 😂 you got the full experience Kim!
Hesitant and reticent are different words. :)
I salute Kim, the world adventurer. Picks up his Jetta at Indy and goes for the right side door!..👍👍👍
That and grabbing for the seat belt on the wrong side.
Man, I love both racing disciplines. I'm going to the Detroit GP in a few weeks. There's no doubt that the racing itself in Indycar is dramatically more entertaining than F1. The big downside (in my opinion) is the relative lack of technology in Indycar. The cars are boring and sound boring. I'd venture to guess F2 cars would be relatively quicker than Indycars. Get those guys some aero and let the teams compete a bit more from a technology and aero perspective. I really hope Indycar keeps improving. In the meantime, I'm happy to be a fan of both.
That was an adventure to get their switching planes and all
Kym Brundle’s Paddock Walk 👍🏾
Sempre acompanhei as 2 categorias de perto mas a Indy hoje tem as melhores disputas e não precisa de drs pra ocorrer ultrapassagens! Vide GP de nashiville que dá banho em Mônaco!
Fuel here in Miami used to be $1.9/g prior to COVID!
I have a 2019 VW Jetta sel premium and its bright orange! it’s a great car!!!
Hi kym nice video on Indy car never had such an insight before 😊 Gowra
Although I'm not really following the sport I kinda like these Indycar sidesteps
That was so good
Trolley prices are ridiculous here. I live in San Francisco and at San Francisco international they charge 8$ :(
I wish Kym could properly cover the 500 but understand that Monaco might be the most important race on the F1 calendar. I love both F1 and IndyCar. IndyCar is still recovering from the catastrophic split engineered by Tony George. The racing is fantastic but they need more chassis and engine mfgrs.
It really is a whole different vibe than F1.
You should attend the 500 mile race!!
Too bad you couldn't skip Monaco and do the Indy 500. That's when you would be totally blown away.
Love this style of video. Such a pity you cant do the same for F1
As a american fan of nascar , formula 1 AND INDYCAR , I respect the competitive aspect and nature of all 3 type of auto sports
I saw you at the indy gp
F1 should be a warmup race for IndyCar. have a breakfast with beer, watch F1, get bored, go to sleep and wakeup energetic ready for all out IndyCar action race. happy ending..🤩
really enjoyed the intreviews from fans in the paddock. Try in F1 paddock if possible
Dammit, Kym, didn't even know you were in town. Breakfast is on me for you and your son at Cafe Patachou next time! Fun fact: Perth is the antipode to Indy
I ate there last year and interviewed Pato there didn’t I?
@@KymIllman yes indeed. I'll even cover Pato's breakfast if he cares to join us 😃
Who's into The Pixies? Great choice of music.
Haha knew I wouldn't be the only one to zero in on that
Indycar is it's own thing. They have ovals and a teams championship while F1 has a constructors championship because each team make there own cars.
Indycar delivers far more entertaining races, that is for sure.
It seems a moot point to me as it appears the US viewing figures for F1 Miami this year we’re down 25% on last years race which were a paltry sub 3m so in that regard IndyCar will probably rebound and pick up many of those bored newer F1 fans.
F1 is a constructors series not a drivers series and by its nature the car is the star and no matter what spin is put on driver rivalries etc, the best car will win the WCC & WDC for its best pilot whether it be the Schumacher/Ferrari, Vettel/Red Bull, Hamilton/Mercedes or Verstappen/Red Bull years.
The newer F1 fanbase (not just in the US), seems to be losing interest because they see domination of one driver/team boring. Bottom line for those fans is this is F1 and if you want to see the drivers make the difference then IndyCar or some other series is probably more for you.
You should come down to the Baja 500
There is room for it all- and more. The perspective that people forget is that at its core F1 is a CONSTRUCTOR series, and Indycar is a SPEC series- like F2, F3 and others. The F1 prizemoney goes to the team, and under the rules the team is a constructor. There has never been consistency in the field in F1, because the field is divided into two- those that have this years secret (often named Newey) and those who don't. It's always been about the best engineering, and often we'll see the best driver in a not front running car because another team has something special. Simply, put Max in a McLaren, he doesn't win the championship (and Jos' head explodes). But Indycar has everyone driving the same level of tweaked Dallaras from 2012 (it's still the DW12) with the only real variation being the engines. Of course you're going to see a better mix in the results- because at the end of the day the car doesn't matter that much. It's no different in concept to F2 and F3 where it is about the driving. I watch F1 for the best cars. I watch Indycar, F2, F3 and better still weekend club level stuff for racing. The best racing I see in the lower categories at club events
The dampers are different as well.
F1 is boring
Spot on comment.
