I'm more of a Herta fan, though he did fall off a bit this year. Not as much as Grosjean though.

I forgot it was on since it was the opening weekend for football. Laguna is usually a pretty good race. I saw there was a good amount of carnage.

The series really is just the Big 2 (Penske/Gannasi) than a Big 3 or 4. It's a shame we never got the real years of Josef vs. Rossi or Herta that we thought we would. Maybe one year the stars align for a thrid team to put it all together

I’ve only really gotten back into watching it the last couple years so I can’t really comment on that aspect. F1 was just too boring. Indy I find much more entertaining.

I did finally watch the Laguna race last night, I knew Dixon won but JFC I didn’t realize how he had to get there.

He really came out of nowhere with that strategy. That late caution really hurt Palou though. Dixon may have had to battle with him.

I need to go back and watch Long Beach now, that one is usually pretty good.

Long Beach is how I got into Indycar. A friend got free tickets in 2015 and we have gone ever since.

Laguna was just another example of Dixon doing Dixon things lol.

Watched PIR. Blown away how they can cut so much of T1 and the car still stay composed. Taking a tire beyond the FIA strip in my car was a massive hit that made me uncomfortable to keep doing.

Yeah, you could see how badly they were were being knocked around inside. Impressive chassis.
