Well, you can nicely follow via youtube. The highlights they post are actually very good and usually more than enough. Especially last race in Texas...live it was sooo much time of nothing happening and cautions. Highlights is much better to watch.
I do enjoy the highlights when I can't watch the actual race however watching highlights you can't really get a sense of the tactics used. I'm fairly new to the indycar game so strategy and tactics is something I'm learning about which is hard with highlights

Hmmm....yes, but you should not underestimate the caution mixing. While in F1 you can usually follow the strategies although there is one Safety Car...in IndyCar you always have cautions that mix everything upside down. I do not remember a race last season where the strategy was a game changer.

Generally I also rather enjoy a full race, but time...if you have a weekend with F1, IndyCar, DTM or FormulaE...I usually watch the F1 race live or recorded as a full race. The others only if there is nothing else on this weekend. I simply do not want to sit 4h in front of the TV for motorsports....as there is NFL and others sometimes as well.

I mean youtube or similar, I would not (blatantly) ask for other links on here :mrgreen:
I will find them, but often it is not the best link and I stick with it because I have not tried others. I'm lazy that way :mrgreen:

Well, that was a surprising race. I was waiting the whole last 10 laps for Gro to crash as usual, but nothing happened??? How is this possible? :-#

last few laps of the Detroit race was entertaining - I would love to see the F1 tyres have such durability and resistance to abuse as the Firestone rubber seems to have in Indycar.

Some decent races of late and with more jeopardy than in F1. I watched Spain GP with matchsticks holding my eyes open and still caught some massive nodding off... Detroit was comical in some parts as the track was just primitive..but the competitve nature of the cars was displayed.

O'Ward has been very disappointing in the last few races...

There's a good reason that Alex Palou is driving the McLaren in Hungary right now.

Palou is very good indeed.
