I feel for Roger. For decades IMS needed someone who loved IMS to own it. And now that a true racer owns IMS...this happens.
I do feel for him too but He is Roger Penske and he along with everyone else will overcome this. If anybody can handle IMS and keep it in good hands it’s Penske
@@kennethterry8196 AAA+ - NZ- IndyCar star Scott Dixon is the bookies’ favourite to win the Indy-500.
The Kiwi. - Dixon , will still start from the front row for the famous race on Monday (NZT).,the New Zealand TAB, Dixon is a firm favourite at $5.50 with Rossi at $8 and Andretti & Ryan Hunter- $9.- !!! ; www.stuff.co.nz/sport/motorsport/300088733/scott-dixon-posts-secondfastest-time-in-final-indianapolis-500-practice-session
@@kennethterry8196 I agree with you and Mark Nicholson - in a way it's very sad that this is what had to happen to Mr Penske's first race as owner. But I can't imagine how much worse off everything would be right now if it were anybody else but him at the helm with the addition of all the experienced people in his organization to the great people already at IMS/Indycar like Doug Boles & Mark Miles.
Thank goodness the Hulman-George Family sold the track to an individual who respects the facility. The Captain will take a financial hit for this but I believe he is looking for the future and he (and his group) are doing the right thing. It will be very strange but at least the local broadcast will not be blacked out (if I understand it correctly). @ims is very special.
Not a big deal but it is still so damn cool for him to do this.
Thanx Doug. The safest thing was done and I'll be on my recliner at 1 pm Sunday watching prerace and the 104th Indy 500. And may all drivers, crew and safety teams be safe.
Pretty cool, very classy move by somebody who “gets” the magic of The Indianapolis 500
@Richard McCaig Don't be a Negative Nelly, it is still the greatest motorsports event of the year. Always will be.
It was A Real Class Act to do that Document for The Fans. I will be watching as Always tomorrow and I think we are in for A Great Race!!!!
A very well respected man. And showed so much class. I feel like going to the October’s Harvest GP doubleheader this October is slim but I’m planning to return to the GMR Grand Prix on May 15, 2021.
A class gesture: Well done. ;)
I read this on the e-mail I got and thought it was great < this is the first year I missed since 1980 , But "I'll be back " for 2021.!
In 1997, I was there for Sunday (0 laps) and Monday (15 laps). I watched Arie win #1 on Tuesday from my couch with my GA stub in hand.
This year, I won't have a ticket but I'll be on my couch watching with all the race fans around the world and rooting for a good Pennsylvania boy like me to win.
I was there in 97 too. Spent most of the day standing under the bathroom house awnings waiting for the rain to quit, lol. Had to go back to school Tuesday :(
@@johnroby6524 Same here. I was a soon to graduate senior so I cancelled my Tuesday classes for myself. My ride back to school couldn't pull that so I couldn't stay in Indy.
Jason, you mean Arie's 2nd INDIANAPOLIS 500?
It was good, but it's not like being there. Carb day and legend day set the tone and I completely missed it this year!
Health is always first! I understand that but I see there is people who just don't get it...
Maybe you won't die for the virus, but you'll never know about others. The point is to try not to spread it
What you don't get is that the Virus was created, spread, lied about, and promoted by Globalist entities, and with the complicity of the CORRUPT Lame Stream Media, people believe that the virus is so deadly, when in reality, it is no more deadly than the common Flu. I feel sorry for you that you are so bound, and blinded by Fear that you will allow your very life, and freedom to be taken away because of an Evil agenda to subdue and control you. If your belief is based on a lie, what good is it ???
Tomorrow can’t get here fast enough!
One word: CLASS.
I think it is ridiculous that they can't fans there even a limited amount. But tge racing will still great and I will still watch the race no matter what. If I could afford it I would love to be there in person. I was lucky enough to be able to take my son there last year because a good friend got me tickets. Unfortunately we had to leave around lap 50 because we were packed in like sardines and he got sick. It is what it is. God bless all.
Is there a way to get a copy of that? I’ll buy it
They'd sell quick in the museum gift shop or online!
Very nice touch. Good call.
Thanks for putting on the show!
You'd think we as a Country would've beaten COVID-19 by now, atleast back in March I did...
Especially considering how many other countries have do it already
I want a copy for my wall.
My boy tree man won't miss it though.
Hear, Hear!
How can I get an Officially signed copy, w/COA, of the Proclamation with wax seal for myself ?
There should be no local blackout ever.
Excellent.
MY streak will continue. I understand. Safe Race Paramount. my prediction---JR Hildebrandt wins,announces retirement in Victory Circle
Awesome!
Can this proclamation be downloaded? That would be a good thing to do.🤞
I would like to get a signed copy, w/COA, and wax seal for myself too !
...Boston Ma. ....I need a Tee Shirt.....!!!!....yep....!!!!
I hope people read these misinformed and angry comments and understand they do not come from a place or malice but rather pain as the world we live in is slowly ripped to shreds.
It’s a rough time for everyone, things are changing quickly, and if we have to do so little as to not attend a race in order to hopefully save some lives or have a positive impact in the world then I am for it.
Keep in mind the commenters are always the minority, there are always multiple times as many people who silently accept the decisions as there are who loudly yell.
I’m sure everyone in the comments will be very calm
I’m sure no one will be mad
I will only say that , I hope NBC doesn't jackwagon this up like they have been doing for Nascrap 🙄🧐
Could've done 20% capacity. But hey its whatever I guess.
Would have been unfair to the other 80%
Yeah except they aren't so..... Ya
I went to the 500 back in the good days for years! When the whole month of May was every weekend and it was really for Race Fans! When Tony ran the 500 for the people, not just big corporations! We had the real Snake Pit and it would 10 bucks and you went every weekend for quantifications! When he died they turned it over to the BIG SHOTS like Penske! Penske started to screw it up by starting CART, that's all I got to say about that! I wish we had the Good Old Days back!
There's so much wrong with everything you just said, I don't even know where to start. You should probably put your Old Milwaukee down and step away from your computer.
Hope you meant Tony Holman, because Tony George is still alive
Didn't realize 70 year olds knew what TH-cam was.
This isn't what I wrote the first time, someone changed it! I don't how that got changed but the CART part they added is true and Penske always wanted to take over Indy Racing! I didn't say it before but someone added that in! You Kids with your wise replies don't have a clue how it was for the FANS back then! One weekend Saturday quantifications and Sunday the Race and then everyone has time to watch a Nascar Race!
The streaks remain unbroken if you are outside of the track tomorrow.....otherwise the streak didn't mean anything to you
How would you have expected 300,000+ people to do that it would be IMPOSSIBLE!
Some people kept their streak alive, and some didn't.... To have a consecutive streak, their can't be a year missed, no matter what the reason or if the track "says" that the streaks are unbroken.....They can say that, but it doesn't make ot true
Thats not how that works
Yeah - it is. If the public couldn't attend the race, they couldn't attend the race. The streaks of perfect attendance aren't just ceremonial - they are actually still intact.
@@davidcarter2720 "attend" being the operative word
@@vidwatcher3001 - and if you've attended all the races you possibly could have attended for how ever many years straight - your streak continues, as it was not possible to attend this years race. you can't do better than that.
@@davidcarter2720 I suppose my streak continues then
How lame!!
