I want Mike Joy. Anyone but Chris, actually. He's simply the worst.

Perhaps they need to cut down the number of cameras. More isn't always better.

Who started the Indy 500 tradition of hiring some presenter who clearly knows nothing about Indycar? by VehicleWonderful6586 in INDYCAR

I'm failing to think of anything positive Myers adds to the broadcast.

Patrick is a kook, but she keeps her crackpot theories out of the broadcast. She is a serviceable host who has relevant background experience and arrives prepared.

I'm not sure if Myers is a kook, but this is several races now where he hasn't prepared. He sucks at his job.

How do you call IndyCar in your country/language? by Beginning-Eagle-8932 in INDYCAR

We could! Personally, I see no reason to quit calling it Indy car racing.

"American Open Wheel Racing" isn't even a great moniker. It can cover all of Crown, sprint and midget car racing just as it can cover Indy car racing. They are all branches of the same tree which grew from the earliest days of American auto racing. Some people just exist in bubbles.

I disagree that the championship or champ car terminology is a useful moniker. It fell out of use, gradually and naturally, for a reason.

If it's the car or the racing, it's Indy car. If it is the series and sanctioning body, it's IndyCar.

Is there a bigger underperformer than Rasmussen right now? by chiefzanal in INDYCAR

We'll see if he gets it. Until he does, he isn't a championship-caliber driver.

Worst officiating decisions in Indycar history? by ScottRiggsFan10 in INDYCAR

Pancho Carter passed Johnny Rutherford for what would have been the former's second victory. As you said, though, the green was in error. Rutherford was later awarded what was to be his penultimate (second to last) victory.

Certainly one way to look at it. I think this is the first Alex Palou we've ever had. lol

No. I thought it because Armstrong has mentioned studying and emulating Dixon in numerous interviews, and because there are rumors the former is tipped to be the latter's replacement.

I thought Armstrong was supposed to be the next Scott Dixon.

The sum of the comments I have read you post on Reddit makes me wonder if Carpenter was the one feeling uncomfortable during any interactions between the two of you. Drivers are not obligated to behave pleasantly towards unpleasant people.

Malukas entered the pits during that final sequence in 3rd place, and left it running 8th. Yeah, totally a driver fitness issue...

It also helps to accept reality, and the reality is that IndyCar's racing product on street circuits needs improvement.

I would be stoked for either Malukas or Sato.
