In the name of all that is holy, please bring Indycar back to Australia. We have so many great tracks that would be perfect for Indy. We have Adelaide, we have The Bend Motorsport Park, we have Townsville, we have Barbagallo, we have Philip Island, just pick one. I'd even settle for a round at Calder Park, just make it happen!

Curiously, it was Patrick's only win this season. There was a partnership with the Brahma Beer Network, which was known as the "Brahma Sports Team", a the partner of Raul Boesel and lasted for only 2 years (he was Green Team in 1996 and Patrick in 1997) and left for lack Of good results. The Brazilian already no chance to follow in CART wandered the IRL between 1998 and 2002 and in 1999 made his last appearances by CART, working for Green and All American Racers.

8:10 I don't know how you can look at this crash and say these were Indycar's "glory days". Fittipaldi with two broken legs folded into his pedal box. Two wheels WITH wishbones flew off the car, along with a whole front wing with nose-cone...And the field drove through all of it at full speed. Racing is always going to be dangerous, sure, but this is just stupid. Someone could've easily died.

Wanderson Marçal in regards to push to pass, I think they should just give em a boost dial and let them run as much as they dare without grenading the engine
@Stoppahpowah7 жыл бұрын
That would be pretty cool. Would make fuel mileage races even more of a cluster-fuck, too; turn it to full-lean and low-boost. Haha. Honestly P2P is fine in my book, though. It can be used offensively or defensively, and having it or not isn't a guaranteed pass, anyway. Just a small extra layer of strategy to consider.

@@downnice95the UAK-18/IR-12 will allegedly be replaced by the IR-27 after the 2026 season and so far it’s close to looking like a Champ Car, the UAK-18 could’ve been better but it does for sure look like a typical “Indycar” instead of an homage to a proper Champ Car. Let’s hope the series doesn’t go 50⛽️/50⚡️like F1.

Michael McIntyre unfortunately there's now a tram track that runs from where t2 is all the way down to where they would turn east to the beach. and that second long straight is only a tight one way lane next to the tram track which wouldn't be wide enough. there's still an annual race here for the V8 supercars but they altered the track to make it alot shorter. mabye they. could extend a new track further north to accommodate faster open wheel cars again.

@Montgomery_N_Pottichen042 ай бұрын
@ERIC-65 It was a form of Champ Car before CART went bankrupt in fact I think they’ve always been referred to as Champ Cars before Tony George’s idiocy. I’ve been pretty confused about the name of the cars throughout history especially the old school Dirt Champ Cars and “Big Cars”. I think the “Indy” title was about who could capture the best revenue generator(the IMS) for their own series and combine them which later happened unfortunately.

8:44 whoever this airhead is that for some reason ABC replaced the best American racing announcer in history, the legendary Paul Page, saying re: Fittipaldi 'he looks like he's alright'. Um, no pal. He wasn't. He had a badly broken leg that caused him to miss the next six races and obviously ruined his season. Nobody that was a real racing commentator would make that comment after such a horrible crash and with a guy obviously in agony. I'd really love to know what happened with Page and why he wasn't back for the '97 season.
