While Indy car doesn't have the awesome arms race of unbridled technology, it's a fascinating series with a massive variety of tracks. Super speedways, short ovals, road courses and street courses. Yes some of the street courses are a bit micky mouse, but Detroit raced better than expected, and lets face it Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Miami are also pretty crap.

I don't mean to get preachy, but I get really tired of people putting down Indy car and especially it's drivers as being somehow inferior. Its a different product, and I believe the top 10 and bottom 10 drivers in each series are broadly similar in talant. Indy may be lacking a Verstappen or a HAmilton, but if anyone thinks a Dixon, Palou, Herta, O'Ward wouldn't have been successful in a top F1 team they are deluding themselves.
All likely true. I think you actually validated some of my points as well as adding a few of your own why F1 is better. But I don't care. You can have the win.
