Enjoyed the race and track.
I was a bit surprised how empty the grandstands were in the broadcast.
Yes, most grandstands looked almost empty.
How in the world can they even come near breaking even?
NSNBC can't be willing to pay much.
The colour commentators were discussing where the young Andretti was going next year. Paul Tracy threw in that he'll probably only get a ride with
Uber !
Is that a dig at his talents? The other commentators said no and nothing else. (PC?)
Talking about Marco Andretti, age 29?
Well, he won one race in 2006, and won one in 2011.
Best ever in the championship was a 5th.
Do you think that is good for 11 years of rides with
Andretti Autosports?
I think this entire is worth your reading,

and it has, "“E.J. Viso (a former driver) was a loose cannon.
He had a couple of screws loose. He was pretty fast; he’d run
up front and he was unpredictable. Of the guys still there, Marco
(Andretti) would have potential to be a bad guy; Marco could
wear the Hat but he’s not going fast enough for anybody o worry
about."
