IndyCar 2021

[Prepuce of Doom 21285]

There's something Diablo-esque about the C8 convertible. 

[Hawndoh 2409]

With the exception of NBC cameras focused on the stands when the green waved the start is clean.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

One of the most fun interviews I ever did was with Juan Pablo when he was a rookie racing for Chip. He was talking about how hard it was for him to be living in Indianapolis while still being underage to get into any clubs. He was really cool.

Yeah, it's almost as though it took them by surprise. 

Fucking idiots at NBC.

you didn't enjoy the sucking off of healthcare workers?   haha 

It’s all too contrived.  

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

These speeds are incredibly incredible. Just amazing 

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Cool, more commercials 

[Shoxthemonkey 1992]

I hope they are showing all these ads now do they can concentrate on the race later.

 

 

Nah, that won't happen 

[Hawndoh 2409]

Ed Carpenter stalls in pits and will lose a lot of ground.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Crash in the pits

Too much speed crashed on his own

And now a pit road accident trying to slow to pit speed, Stefan Wilson

All on him

[Hawndoh 2409]

Yep, that's super easy to do, though. They don't really pit off turn 4 until carb day, and they have to slow soooo much to hit pit speed that it's super easy to lock it up and spin.

[Hawndoh 2409]

Oh man, Dixon is screwed. One of the favorites hung out unable to pit, ran out of fuel.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Wow, Dixon can’t get started again 

[Prepuce of Doom 21285]

I really can't stand how Diffey pronounces "Herta" - "Huueuewrta" 

[Hawndoh 2409]

Same story with Rossi. Horrible luck.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Rossi same problem 

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Early enough they may recover

Where is Juan Pablo Montoya?

 

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Dixon back in too

[Hawndoh 2409]

Rossi finally gets going and nearly spins out in frustration

He’s out having a taco.  Nice Griese

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Danica heading out to the club after the race.  Those pants are very snug

[elfenix 34737]

Worst part of that caution is the 20 minutes of commercials

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Can’t wait for the new season of AGT!
 

NBC says it’s going to be awesome

Are the announcer microphones outside the window? Can barely hear them, not that I am complaining.

[RamjetFDO 10648]

Tuss-kee-jee?

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Ho Lee Fuk the commercials 

[Prepuce of Doom 21285]

Not sure which is more annoying - the number of commercials, or the bizarre overemphasis on driver ages this year.

After 15 years of the same names winning everything IndyCar is desperate to market the young guys as the next generation of the series.

Yeah, a bit of both is correct. But it doesn’t have to be mentioned every lap.

[Bill Brasky 1622]

they can't stop beating the dead horse with regards to fuel mileage, and Diffey sounds drunker than usual today 

[immamac 44290]

Good race so far. Gonna have to make it back up there once the boy is old enough to care/pay attention for more than 2 minutes. 

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Ouch, Rahal.

[Hawndoh 2409]

Rahal lost it in the wall on cold tires, then somebody punted Rahals tire into outer space.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Did Daley get hit by the tire?

[Hawndoh 2409]

Daly sent that tire to space.

[elfenix 34737]

Rahal lost it out of the pits and someone caught a tire


Edit: guess my stream is a bit behind

[Hawndoh 2409]

Oh he didn't lose it, tire was never on the car.

[elfenix 34737]

Pulled a Haas, that's why that tire was loose

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

That’s terrible.  So dangerous 

[Hawndoh 2409]

Dixon got back on the lead lap, Rossi still screwed.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Too bad this is not brought to us by Mother’s like F1 on ESPN and we’d not have 8,000 commercials.

[Hawndoh 2409]

NBC has to try to get their entire annual investment in the series rights squeezed out of this one race. It's the only one that gets decent viewership.

Of course the other races have just as many breaks, but they're all ads for other NBC shows, not outside money.

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Wow, they made Space Jam 2. I did not know that. Cool what you can learn from so many commercials 

[PittsburghTiger 6340]

Wow, how did that old guy make that pass!?!?

[Shoxthemonkey 1992]

Let's go Helio!

[Prepuce of Doom 21285]

Pretty shitful camera work on every start/restart today.

It’s as if they are surprised each time
