Wow! Whata a race! Formula Indy is so fun to watch! Every weekend is a new crazy story with overtakes, crashes, dynamic weather, pit stop strategies...It's just so great! Thanks for the show everyone!!!!
Some many people hated this race because of the number of yellows. As a long time F1 fan I loved it, chaotic races are always fun. Dixon did a good job.
.....I'm sure Scott Dixon has 58 wins now. They was showing that wins chart during the race not after. Anyway I hope you have a wonderful day, and God bless.
Does it really make any difference what happens on track? The shouting/screaming will be incessant no matter how snoozeworthy the on track material is.
ah you will, this was a very entertaining race for people that actually like racing. The brief rain also caused some issues because of not knowing whether slicks were needed or not. F1 runs into that issue too and there ends up being a lot of cautions and drivers running off the track too.
@GarbagePlateROC EXACTLY, it was a really good race and that rain threw a huge kink in everyone's plans. Luundgard stayed on the slicks, I believe Kirkwood did also and of course Dixon. I was so hoping Rossi could've got the lead and the win. Now even though Dixon is not my favorite at all, unless he was with a different team cause I can't stand Ganassi, he's a master and none of the other drivers know how to save like he does cause he's driven champ cars, the IRL NA cars and now back to turbocharged missiles. Everything is gonna really change up once the hybrid components are put in and the tired start degrading faster cause of the added weight.
Yep, IndyCar races are usually pretty crazy. Lots of aggressive pass attempts and slamming into other cars in the turns. Those cars are amazingly stout.
The start was actually cool to watch in a way. How these cars did not crash on the first lap is amazing. Also, there was a time when IndyCars didn’t have a reverse gear, and more often than not, they needed a push to get rolling because of the lack of low-end torque. Otherwise you would either stall the engine or you’d really have to rev em up to take off. Yeah, I still miss the tiny turbocharged V8’s of the 80’s and 90’s. But I actually like these spec cars of today.
"In the space of a commercial break." And thats why i haven't watched an Indy race in like 5+ years lol. Why tf would i watch racing with commercials lol
CART era...In 1993, Nigel Mansell did the unthinkable. After winning the 1992 Formula 1 championship, Mansell flew to America and won the ’93 Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART) Indy Car World Series championship for Newman-Haas Racing at the age of 40. With the wins, he became the only driver to hold both major open-wheel titles at the same time.
Some people forget that rain and wrecks is what makes motorsports interesting. I'm thankful IndyCar does everything- race tracks, ovals, street circuits. What, you want it to be like F1? One car winning every race with zero action or rarely any passing? I'll take this.
@@Chris-sm2uj when did I say the driving was fake or lacked skill? All I'm saying is I like the danger. These aren't artificial crashes, it's drivers pushing the limits of the track.
One more solid example of the effectiveness and purpose of the aeroscreen. Lundgard's left front would have crushed Grosjean it the aeroscreen was not in place.
You act like F1 drivers do not crash when even a bit of rain is involved. Less crashes in F1 because there is much less passing and close racing. Seems pretty common sense to me.
@@jtp2007 you sadly think these were caused by rain or "close racing" and when you can't get passed turn 1 or is turn 3 (which is another stupidity of indycar) without hitting someone that isn't close racing

You can almost predict the wrecks at turn 1 before they even happen. This is ridiculous!
Unsuitable course for such wide + powerful cars add Ferrucci & grosjean & the chaos is unleashed!!
We were watching in the grand stand turn 8, after each caution we would bet on how many laps until the next caution.
@@russell-di8js This is like the one time Grosjean didn't cause a crash lol why would you single out him? Lungaard's divebombs were 2 of the cautions by himself.
I did predict it; you seldom have a race on a street course without a pile-up at the start.
it’s a perfectly normal hairpin corner, drivers just refuse to give up the apex ever
With all the dive bombs. I thought i was watching iracing for a second lmao.. wtf
It's like watching a demolition derby,
and a big SS!!
and more.
Scott is a genius at the long game.
Entertaining race.
What a bunch of idiot drivers…. Power, Ferrucci,Lundgaard. Leave room at the apex …..
TWO Kiwi's on the podium. Well done Marcus.
Skill of a 6 time champ
The onboards have been great for this race. Lundgaard pass on Scott was masterclasses.
Ferruci was mad at Kirkwood during practice but then proceeds to be a total menace and run into everyone…
Par for the course for him. Head case through and through.
His only incident in the race was with Castroneves, and lots of drivers getting into each other today.
Ferrucci finished top 10.
Pretty normal for him. And I’m sure he’ll be typically arrogant and whiny
@@GarbagePlateROC I mean, it’s pretty well documented. Entitled to your opinion though.
Gotta love Santucci haters living in their own realities 😂
These cars are so strong. How so many carried on is amazing. Would be really interesting to see what an IndyCar race at Monaco would be like!
The best thing about this race is that it's over and we only have to wait a week to see Indycars on the greatest road course in the US. Road America!
Colton Herta is such a choke artist it’s incredible
I miss Belle Isle. There was nothing wrong with that track in my opinion. Indy and IMSA need to go back
Belle Isle races were boring lol

Both track are boring and narrow. Race on I75 if they want to race in Detroit.

He's being told when he can wave the flag. They let a "guest" wave the flag on the start- not an official- but an official needed to give the official call on when the green was out.

Congrats to Dixon, Ericsson and Armstrong!

Colton Herta looked like he was a pissed off simracer. The Imsa race wasn’t much better.
Says the armchair quarter back please .... This is Street racing duh . Guess this is your first rodeo 🤣😜
I'm more inclined to think that for the most part, it's not the drivers but this track.
I think it was like putting a bunch of pedigree race horses on an old walking trail and then wondering why they race so badly. Track is AWFUL!
Even Maldonado thinks this has gone to far
Colton Herta is his own worst enemy. Always qualifying good and then end up choking at race day
Herta is his own nightmare and always will be!
This was truly a race of all time.
I loved the part where the announcer said it's indycar time and he indycared all over the place
The layout on this street circuit is absolutely horrendous. Move it back to Belle Isle or get Detroit to build a proper circuit.
Not sure if it's the worst track in the world, but it's in contention.
Belle isle is right there a few miles away and it is a beautiful track.
This street circuit was bad in 80s when F1 races there.
True!
Yeah, absolutely concur... it's just ugly looking...
Marcus Armstrong following in Scott Dixon tyre tracks .. well done
9:04 With his racecraft and fuel saving, we all know who was gonna cross the lane first. 😂
Indy car's look so much better nowadays compared to back in the day.
That's was an aggressive race! Had a little bit of everything - wrecks, rain, pit issues, aggro - and naturally, Dixon comes out on top!
I KNEW at some point that, despite starting on pole, Herta was going to screw up at some point. You can almost count on it.
This was a strange one, almost half the race was run under caution yet it still ended up being entertaining anyway.
As a race fan , that was an embarrassing spectacle.
Scott Dixon approaches A.J. Foyt. Now the difference has dropped to 10 wins. A.J. Foyt 67 wins vs. 57 wins Scott Dixon. Countdown.
.....I'm sure Scott Dixon has 58 wins now. They was showing that wins chart during the race not after. Anyway I hope you have a wonderful day, and God bless.
The Iceman prevails... Scotty is one of the greatest of all time and he is still at the top of his game at the age of 43....🏎️🏎️🏎️

Congrats Dixon!
Scott Dixon for the win and he takes the championship lead. Hopefully he can put up a proper fight for the title this year
that first turn was outrageous.
5:01 man those dudes almost had their legs removed by that hose. This was a fun highlights to watch.

What were you watching (between commercials, which I agree are long)? That was a very exciting race with TONS of passing.
The Detroit circuit is too narrow for Indy and prototype racing. The organizers should redesign it or take it off of the race calendar.
Driving standards across IMSA, Indy and Xfinity are a bloody disgrace.
