20 to go, leaders within 2 seconds and closing, perfect time for a full-screen ad

At 40.95 miles, today's Indy NXT race is the shortest in the series history Previous record was the 2008 Race 2 at Mid Ohio, rain shortened after 20 laps at just 45 miles, won by James Davison

First impressions of the track. 180-190 mph on the pit straight. 150+ mph on two other straights. It feels fast. Sub-minute lap times. Kind of a throwback to the short street circuits of the late 1980s/1990s.

@CalePutnam seriously! I feel like I have Paul Page seared into my brain going “After 100 laps its mears that leads from Unser”

@GPLapsJake Just do a quick rundown of the running order every 25 laps or so, that's more than sufficient

on the topic the timing and scoring not working for half of yesterday’s IndyCar race.. In those scenarios why dont the commentators give a verbal update or even acknowledge the issue?

We didn’t even have live leaderboards until the mid 90s! It shouldn’t be that hard to manually make a quick leaderboard to show folks the positions every 15 laps?

@justindcady conventional wisdom says it will become more predictable as the season goes, so we'll see!

@GPLapsJake I'm curious how much of what we saw for W2W was the result of everyone still figuring out harvest/deploy strats & what it'll look like later in season when all teams get that stuff optimized. Will all converge on common strat and reduce the rando overtakes we saw?

I really enjoyed the F1 race, beyond the opening stint overtakes (which was fantastic) the unpredictability and random failures reminded me of the 90s Seems like the new regs aren't everyone's cup of tea, but from a casual fan I definitely week to see what happens next week!

F1 died with the V10s for me so did IndyCar with the spec series and NASCAR with the CoT -- the glory days are gone but I still try to enjoy what we do have!

I grew up watching Unser, Mears, Andretti, Sneva, Foyt, Rahal, Fittipaldi, Luyendyk... I feel like the sport has got a really solid group again. Feels good!

Rasmussen is such a talent and the most entertaining short oval driver ive seen in yeeeaaars! Watching drivers like Power, Newgarden, Rossi, O'Ward, Malukas, Kirkwood, Palou (i could list them all) duke it out, its such a fun series and so deep with great drivers

I love all types of racing, but IndyCar on an Oval is the absolute top for me !! Thoroughly entertained for those 250 laps today. Pure thrill side-by-side racing and gutsy moves mixed with complex strategy and traffic management. Keeps me glued from start to finish 👌
