I'm an Indycar/CART fan since the 70's but have only been to the show in Birmingham. I know that Long Beach is such a key race to the drivers but I don't quite understand why it is a fan favorite. I understand the concrete canyon requires precision and no mistakes but there is such limited passing ability and it seems like qualifying is 90% of your chance to win (other than pit stops). If there is an accident at the start you have no place to go and anyone in the mid to back of the pack are doomed.
Am I missing something? For me, watching Long Beach is watching everyone waiting for an accident or a quick pit stop.
