See I want to get into Indy, but find the street courses quite boring with very little passing. As a NASCAR fan, would like to see the Indy cars try the Roval at Charlotte or the Roval at the Daytona track? Could be cool. Loved the NASCAR race when they did the Royal at Daytona in the summer race in 2020. So awesome and wish they would bring it back.
It's hard to understand how Power wasn't awarded a penalty for the contact with Malukas. We see penalties for far less in IndyCar, including the blocking penalty for Herta issued after this race...
Just commenting to say how much I appreciate NBC providing quality highlights. Many other channels cut short 5-10min videos which isn’t enough for motorsports.
Yeah sadly because of the incidents, comments about the great racing got buried. This race surprised me positively but man... Power should've been penalised already before his crash and then that restart crash should've been a penalty to someone regardless of if it was fault of Newgarden or someone behind him. That just shouldn't happen
@@Dr.DiegoDuarte I haven't made any claim. You made it up. I say that for the credibility of the series it's time not to have a player to own it, especially if it's a top player whose cars are in a lot of judgement decisions every race. i'm afraid it would be a limiting factor for the growth of the series. It's not rocket science, it's pretty much common sense honestly...
What the announcer said at the end about him fighting to stay in IndyCar, is he really about to be chewed up and spit out of the league after just one season? His results have been pretty mid overall, but his highs have been higher than those of Simpson, and he now has more podiums than Sage Karam, who was another driver of the #8 who I felt was given up on too early.
@@nathanstroud2223he is, partly cause of the charters and ganassis expected to downsize to 3 cars and keep Simpson over lunqvist and Armstrong cause he brings an enormous amount of money
Will Power wrecks out the youngster Malukas. That was on Power. Then blows the restart and he's pissed when it comes back at him. Got served some of his own medicine.
How is Will Power NOT penalized for turning down on a driver and taking them out?? LOL. (Corollary: why am I defending Malukas?!) Because, Penske, the Boss needs to clamp down on his now losing driver. It's not always the OTHER guy to blame. Tim Cindric could also intercede, if he is in fact a boss.
@@majikkskates9084 oh you mean when they all cheated and only got a slap on the wrist? Any other racing series and that team would never race again for the year. But penske privilege and bam. Even tim cindric is already back. How did he not get fired again?
Little Dave drove a brilliant race and it's such a shame Power moved down him and took him out. David gave him so much room going into the corner and definitely Power squeezed him onto the apron and then ultimately out of the race. Seeing Power give Newgarden the finger near the end makes me wonder if Power has got anger management issues or something? Anyway, my driver of the race is Malukas and won't be long before he's morphed into Big Dave!
I was watching Scotty Mac’s onboard at the time of the late crash and I’m pretty sure Newgarden checked up (didn’t maintain a consistent speed like he’s meant to). Something like that should be penalised if that was the case 🤔
They still won't learn anything since they have GWC's. They used to do quickie yellows but quickie yellows these days aren't even that fast any more either.
Yeah he’s been really unlucky this season he’s either being crashed into or caught up in someone else’s mess. I’m glad he was at least able to finish the race :/
I am a Dutch and it's quite hard to follow indy car very well. I am just curious, how well is Veekay rated as a driver by the average indy car fan? Is he in a bad car? Is he just an average driver?
11:00 Ridiculous how this wasn't a penalty for Power. Malukas did everything to avoid the contact there, move was absolutely fair and Power definitely didn't do everything to avoid the contact. Should've been an avoidable contact penalty for Power
The number of spectators seems to have suffered a sharp decline. Before 2018, these stands were full. Now there are so many empty stands. I doubt they can still make a profit. Local events are not always profitable, they have only been profitable for a few years.
It's sad to see cause IndyCar has been putting on some great races the past few years. You just can't expect new fans to keep up when the series takes 3-4 weeks off sometimes. People forget about it
gateway moment lmao, they had the front stretch lights go out last night on lap 1 of the USAC silver crown race. I was also at the NASCAR truck race in 2021 where the lights went out. Why does this keep happening at a track with "technology" in the name.
OK, ALL im hearing about the massive wreck is them saying someone checked up, maybe Rossi jumped it and this and that. NOOO, POINT BLANK, Newgarden FUMBLED THE START. We ALL sawthe green light come on and he had a perfectly clear look at it. This was Newgardens fault
In Indycar rules, green flags mean everyone can go fast, even if the leader is still slow (which was how Palou fanned out immediately & avoided the wreck)
so newgarden makes a mistake, spins and causes a full course yellow caution. And as a reward he gets 2nd place back for the restart? What kind of rule is that? Why in the world would someone introduce such an insane rule. Rules like this are the main reason i cant take indycar seriously if im being honest. its actively working against fair competition.
When several drivers behind Newgarden all say the same thing, that he brake checked the field on the restart, how can they (Indycar) not penalize for that?
Power was correct in double birding Newgarden. Indy HQ has the data, they know that Newgarden was fluctuating his speed. He should have had a drive-through penalty.
I’ve watched nascar for years but find indycar is more interesting the past couple of years
Indycar makes ovals interesting. They're just boring to me otherwise.
The cool part is you don’t need to pick between them, and can follow both!
Objectively Indy is much higher quality racing

@@lallen3327my thoughts exactly

These are the same stewards that didn’t penalize Dixon for wrecking Hunter-Reay at 220mph
Power is Indy's #3. He does what he want's to the whole field & blames them for his F%@k ups
Who does he drive for??
Power absolutely pinched Malukas into the kerbs, Malukas had nowhere to go. Power should have got a stop go penalty.
Rewatch Francheatti with Sato at Indy a number of years back. Same deal. Francheatti is a "hero" for it.
That restart crash reminded me of the 2020 Tuscany GP
Agreed
Yeah was going to say the same!
it was pretty much the same yes
Power should have gotten a penalty over the Malukas crash. At LEAST he got wrecked regardless.
That was penske fault on his wreck too caused by leader and they let then get away with everything
@@drewrockwell8000Yeah. Sux.
Just commenting to say how much I appreciate NBC providing quality highlights. Many other channels cut short 5-10min videos which isn’t enough for motorsports.
The restart was a mess but this was a fantastic race when everyone was expecting a snoozefest. Well done getting the package right, IndyCar.

Let’s goooo. I met him after the race. What a cool dude
Sucks that Makulas was running infront with great speed till Power happened
Such a penske move by power to crash out malukas
The guy who spins, ends up winning the race!!! That’s incredible!!!
What's incredible is how the rules don't apply to him.
It's time for Penske to decide whether it's a series organizer or a team. The way the press release mentions the incident is LOL
The Penske Indycar series. Nice driving by Newgarden.......
Josef is amazing he doesn't deserve this situation
Unless another guy steps in and takes over the series management, nothing's gonna change. It works for Penske.
For the time Penske is series owner, Alex Palou in a Chip Ganassi car won most Indycar,championships, that just makes your claim baseless
@@Dr.DiegoDuarte I haven't made any claim. You made it up.

Not showing the view that showed Newgarten dragging the brakes and messing up the restart? Definitely on par with Penske.
Yep loosing respect for the series.
Palou strategy is simple: get in-take points- get out. So far only 1 mistake this year and 11 races on top-5…he deserves the championship.
so boring
Will Power wrecks out the youngster Malukas. That was on Power. Then blows the restart and he's pissed when it comes back at him. Got served some of his own medicine.
Plus him taking out McLaughlin at Toronto as well. Karma!

"Blows the restart"?
What happened to your glasses?
Penske needed to be penalized for a couple things, but when you own the series, you don't get penalized.
Às vezes eles são penalizados. Mas somente às veses, não em todas as vezes.
Are people already forgetting the aftermath of the first race this year?
@@majikkskates9084 oh you mean when they all cheated and only got a slap on the wrist? Any other racing series and that team would never race again for the year. But penske privilege and bam. Even tim cindric is already back. How did he not get fired again?
I always loved NASCAR but since they had the playoffs idea, I started watching Indy and I think it’s more exciting than NASCAR 😊
Power must be good friends with the stewards for not getting a penalty for spinning Malukas.
Power should have been awarded penalty
Power took him out.
I like Power less and less every race. Totally took Malukas out
Each time I try and like Power, he does a stunt like this and even has the gall to blame Malukas for it. Shameful.
Heartbroken for Malukas, 12 squeezed him way to much into thr turn
Agreed, and having a car out there that was too many laps down to do anything but be a moving chicane for his teammate didn't help, either.
Is sad to see al those seats empty!! 😮😮 Indy, gotta do something to get more audience!!
I noticed the same thing.
Penske is destroying its own series. One day teams will get tired of their antics. Fans already are.
@@julianr.7186speak for yourself I love the series I was at the race

Dirty Newgarden again, shame Indycar is so biased when awarding the penalty. Prime example is Power now. Penske pulling strings again.
too bad late race controversary, it was overall a great race, nothing like short track ovals Indycar racing, just awesome, love this track
I was watching Scotty Mac’s onboard at the time of the late crash and I’m pretty sure Newgarden checked up (didn’t maintain a consistent speed like he’s meant to). Something like that should be penalised if that was the case 🤔
Newgarden never checked up. He had an increasing gap on 2nd place.
But he is. Great driver who expects everyone to move over because he’s Will.
Great result for Armstrong in the #11 Screaming Meals car!
Power is starting to become the IndyCar version of Denny Hamlin, and that is not a good thing.
Herta was fast, great race
indycar needs more ovals! go to Richmond + Nashville oval + New Hampshire + Phoenix
00:55 😳😳😳
An exciting race with a lot of drama!
David malukas got shafted, power should've gotten a penalty
Will Power wrecked someone and then someone else wrecked him back. Karma is real.
How about Robb!
Great race
Power and Newgarden need to have some serious penalties.
They won´t. And this is one of the reason this series´ audience is declining.
I am honestly sick of Penske motorsports. If any of their drivers don’t get their way they throw a fit. Whether it’s NASCAR or IndyCar.
I go back and look and yea, Power moved down and made contact. I hate giving drivers penalties, but that was very warranted of a penalty.
Will Power doing Will Power things KARMA paid him a visit
i wish indycar have its own indycar series in europe
Check out formula one
@@kimbershaw8485I watch F1 too, but its no way near as entertaining as Indycar
Barely enough Americans care for it. Europeans have their own, far more successful open wheel series.
Time for power to retire man every race he’s taking somebody out. How did he not get a penalty
hollinger, you went down to canapino, and you went up to one without hands?
That was a great race. Had a bit of everything! Can we get more ovals in Indy car now please?!?

i cant wrap my head around the face the indy 500 is the largest single day event and most these other tracks have a hard time selling tickets
That restart was brutal.. what a mess
Nascar officiating could learn a thing or two about how IndyCar throws cautions and red flags.
They still won't learn anything since they have GWC's. They used to do quickie yellows but quickie yellows these days aren't even that fast any more either.
Will Power getting crashed out at the end was absolute karma in action!
