How dare Peacock interrupt my commercials with a few minutes of racing.I'm fine with the Spanish commercials but to show a little racing is not worth the amount of money i pay every month..

I thought you were supposed to pay for viewing so you could get rid of commercials. Now you pay and the ad people pay. Cripes, the tv people must be doing tons of coke and booze with all the money they're pocketing.

This is Indycar, overtakes are generally rougher than in other series, and getting so worked up over an incident that you wish someone to die or have a near death experience again is straight up ridiculous. At that point, you're like those Argentinian Canapino fans who send death threats to whoever doesn't let Canapino past by jumping out of the way. At the end of the day, it's a sport. We watch it for entertainment and root for athletes we like. These athletes are humans too, humans with a family.

Newgarden should have been penalized. Play it back at half-speed and decide for yourself. He was pulling away Power and Rossi. He can claim there was an opening on the outside between Scottymac and Herta, but he was straight ahead. Even at half-speed the closing rate was incredible. If that is the excuse for giving him a pass, that he was already on the gas, it is really weak. Hench and Bell chickened out on calling it since it doesn't fit into the narrative of repairing his reputation. Quietly implicit is the notion that Josef is so good he wouldn't make that mistake. What I would like to see is the stewards pulling the telemetry as part of the decision process.
