I don’t know if it’s ESPN or my cable company...but I keep losing reception. That’s just adding insult to injury IMO!!! I’m ever so close to switching to Direct TV!

as one who is not a fan of nascar I will defend nascar here. As was mentioned above this is not the first time this has happened at indy. At least nascar is running a race. It certainly isn't the best but at least there is a race. That can not be said of f1 who refused to make any changes and had the worst debacle in motor sports history.

Goodyear and NASCAR have effectively f***** this up haven't they??? the tyres at Atlanta earlier in the year were a joke but not as bad as this- totally unacceptable to bring a tyre that is not fit for purpose- ie can be raced properly
in the same way that it was unacceptable for Michelin in 2005- there is no excuse from either Goodyear or NASCAR for this- although I note the commentary team did the usual Goodyear tyre advert earlier
oh and the cars look f****** stupid crabbing down the straight- pathetic- thought NASCAR had stopped this after Hornish earlier in the year

Whatever the cause, the result is a joke.I read it on the internet, so it must be true
