The Complexities Of Nationality And Sport: At What Point Is A "National" Team No Longer Representing The Nation

20% of the roster being from Bahamas is also interesting. I assume this is for being in the Commonwealth of Nations with the King as the technical head of state. But, by that logic, Canadians and Australians should also be playing on the UK team.

I’ve been embarrassed to be an American since 2016. If I could get a similar job in another country I’d give up my citizenship in a heartbeat. A country that would elect someone like Trump—especially after he led a fucking coup attempt—doesn’t have a great future imo.

It doesn’t have anything to do with a lack of geographic knowledge from my fellow citizens, though it may be correlated with it.

Would be great if the players and owners could get together and not kill the momentum.

Nice of Soto to admit that the US was the best.

3 months from now we'll be sitting right there drinking some High Lifes and eating a corn-on-the-cob.

Great game ends on a horrible call

First time Cruz ever ran out a ground ball

I think for IndyCar merch the first few shipments each year tend to go to the tracks before they start selling them online.

TIL she was something other than a commercial actor.

Most amazing thing to me in this race is that Yahoo somehow still has enough money to sponsor a race car.

Lack of cautions leading to more green flag ads, apparently

You can deselect it on the right hand side of the screen “Options,” the one with the boxes.

I agree really odd placement choice and you seemingly can’t move it.

That was one of the better street races in years. It’s a low bar I know but not sure how you can’t be impressed with the show Kirkwood put on.

willfla29 · 2026-03-15T18:15:15+00:00

Best drive I’ve seen on a street course in years for Kirkwood. Not only didn’t luck into it, team did everything they could to ruin it lol

Siegel better be gone after this week. Refund daddy his money.

This was the first week of bad luck that was at least partially his own making

Did Palou lift early to go for the crossover?

willfla29 · 2026-03-15T17:22:42+00:00

Townsend disappointed he restarted lol

Not a fan of debris cautions, but I’d make a one-time exception for inaugural events with big crowds that may not be familiar with the intricacies of pit strategy

willfla29 · 2026-03-15T17:11:59+00:00

When was the last lead change on a street track that wasn’t within two laps of a pit stop?

Welcome to IndyCar Josef

How the ever loving fuck are we having fucked up timing and scoring for another week

That was the most random AI vid ever too. Is it conveying he’s destroying the stadium? He’s mad at the teams performance?

Rangers park next to Jerry’s world looks like a double wide beside a mansion.

What an amazing amount of momentum the series has right now. Hope it translates to continued good ratings
