The 2024 Indy 500 was CHAOS

- Monaco may have disappointed as per usual, but we can always turn to the Indy 500 to wake us up again. the 2024 edition of the race did exactly that, giving us a thrilling last lap battle that went right down to the wire! That gives me more than enough to talk about, so here are my thoughts on the entire month of May!

Honestly, Sting Ray deserves some praise, that was a very solid drive. Possibly his best drive in an IndyCar. Gutted for Pato though, and with McLaren coming 2nd in Shanghai (Jake Hughes), 2nd in Monaco (Piastri) and 2nd at Indy (O'Ward), it was a day of so close, yet so far.
No possibly about it, easily the most assured drive he's put in so far, if he can keep it up he'll have a career beyond this season.
Yeah it takes a lot of guts and a bit of skill to pass for the lead at the indianapolis five hundred is a very impressive drive by stingray
He had the 6th fastest lap of the race. And he's driving for Foyt, a team that has always known how to get around this track. They are so good at it, Penske teamed up with them this year, and you can see how that worked out for them.
Had another yellow happened before Sting Ray pitted he could have well been within a chance of winning tbh
@@rewp234honestly if Dixon gets a dive thru penalty for that collision, and stingray pitted before the yellow he would've been fighting for a win.
I am proud to say that i saw Sting Ray Robb lead the Indy 500 in person
🫡
Seeing him and Daly duking it out for the lead was something I did not expect to see. I want more
Sorry for your loss
How was the crowd reaction when stingray took the lead?
@@DJDouglasWarden not as big as when Daly took the lead
This was the first time I ever got to watch the Indy 500 in person. The day before I left, my fiance of two years and I broke up. I decided to drive from TEXAS, which was 14 hours (16 including food bathrooms and gas). During that drive I encountered 8 tornado warnings, 5 thunderstorm warnings and a flash flood before hitting Joplin. When I got to the track I learned my parking pass was forged and I had to pull out the stubhub receipt and pray to be let in. I got rained on for 2 hours, fell in mud at the infield in Turn 3, fell AGAIN when I was helping a Brit get his truck out of the mud after the parking lot flooded, and didn’t sleep for over 36 hours. I’m writing this as I head back down I-70 and I-44 with a cold quesadilla in my passenger seat and another 15+ hour drive ahead of me.
And I loved every single minute. It was by far the best fucking experience of my life and I’m already planning on getting my tickets for next year and I’m going to be roping my friends into it if I can.
Indy really is the greatest spectacle in sports and I can’t wait to be back. If you can go, go. You’ll never forget either the race or the people for as long as you live.
I went once in 2022. It was awesome! It’s hard to watch on TV now! Hope to be there again soon!
Sorry to here your fiance broke up with you. Sounds like an amazing adventure you had. Thank you for sharing.
You never forget those trips partner. Just don’t ask me how I know.
Bro, sounds like a wild time. You seem like you’ve dialed in your happiness with a bit of self care. You owe it to the person who wrote the story above NOT to go back & be bought back down. 🎉🎉🎉
I too am from Texas, I went for the first time 2 years ago and I haven’t missed it since. It’s truly an experience.
That's the most threatening a stingray has looked since Steve Irwin met one on a reef in 2006
That's soooo bad, yet so good.
Damn.
Too soon, man.
Hmmmm
No!!! Stop!!! It's too fresh of a wound to heal, I know it is 18 years ago, I cannot forget that moment, it ingrained into my mind and childhood for years, lol
Sting Ray Robb led the 3rd most laps. Let that sink in.
So stingray is now the goat...
I will not respond to anyone objecting because this is simply facts
Unironically sting Ray Robb had a really good race and if the last yellow had about one lap latter he'd be right around daily fighting for top 10 finish. Easily his best race in IndyCar
Gotta give Sting Ray his due. He raced well yesterday.
He isn't very talented.
You don't just lead the Indy 500 without talent. @@TriViuM2k22
It was nice to see a race on Sunday where drivers, you know, actually raced each other instead of driving slowly on purpose to manage gaps and tires for 80 laps.
Well there is some of that. But just a little sprinkling of it for flavour. It's not the main course.
To be fair the entire first 75% of the race was run 20MPH down at three quarters throttle to conserve fuel.
2 things that saved this year Monaco GP:
1. Leclerc maiden win on homesoil
2. Indy500 deliver a classic
The Goat himself. Sting Ray Robb led from the front legitimately. What a race
Holy crap, america saw the monaco gp and said "hold my bald eagle"
You call Monaco a race? That's blasphemy 😂😂😂
When Sting Ray took the lead, my first thought was: "Oh the FP1Will video is going to be so good" haha. But credit to Sting Ray, he looked quick and competent out there.
Shame the final caution came out when it did
@@FP1Will but that it is... They driving for hours and hours in circles...apart from that the drivers end up getting distracted from doing the same thing so much or they fall asleep like what happens to me
This was my first time attending a race in-person, and what an experience it was.
Same here. I was almost falling asleep halfway through, but that ending was so amazing
Same here. Got a perfect view of the winning pass in turn 3. 100/10 would do it again
Good job you haven’t got a caution meme!! 😂
He should make one
I think he should probably have that!
Yet
yet...
Well now you’ve given him the idea……
Pato's post race interview proves how much this race means to the drivers.
Great comedy review. 10/10 mate
Seeing Sting Ray Robb lead the Indy500 is absolutely brilliant. Wish we had him in F1, he could even make Monaco exciting 😂
Sting Ray was the dark horse in the race. I was hoping he would put everything into chaos with a win... oh well
I watched one of the tire changers on Sting Ray’s pit crew eat 6 hot dogs over the course of 25 laps as I say behind their pit box, truly incredible
Only 6? That's doesn't make sense given how obese most of the mechanics in Indy seems to be. Maybe he was just snacking and not really eating?
Objectively speaking, I watched Monaco then the Indy 500 as I do every year, and I say this, watching cars go FOUR wide at 233mph is intoxicating, when the announcers are saying things like, “these guys are jacked up on to much caffeine and some are driving like psychos” sorry but Monaco has nothing on Indy, and for my money, nor does F1
Monaco should be 3 hours of qualifying and then crown the winner.
@@AEFischhonestly I think F1 needs Monaco cars if they are going to keep the race.
Or they make an alternative longer route with a number of required laps. That way cars can naturally undercut or overcut.
Too bad for F1 you cannot even celebrate a win like Helio and Newgarden
My 38th 500. It was one of the best and the rain delay allowed us to spend more time at the Speedway
The fans went fucking bananas when Sting Ray Robb lead the race.
For those wondering how Larson’s attempt at the double went, he arrived at Charlotte Motor Speedway… just in time for God’s piss to come pouring in to cause the race to be stopped. After a bit of waiting, NASCAR decided to piss on Larson’s parade some more by calling the race before he could even get in the car. Unsurprisingly, that pissed off a lot of people, especially since they could’ve just resumed the race today instead bc Memorial Day.
The best part was NASCAR waited two hours before deciding to tell anyone the race was declared official.
I honestly didn't care if Larson got in his car or not. I was pissed that we only got a Coke 370!
@@Dat-Mudkip Great way to sell more hot dogs at the concessions!
glad we're acknowledging the indycar commentators. james hinchcliffe is absolutely one of the best doing it in motorsport right now. nothing but respect for MY mayor
But Diffey needs to drop the "Captain America" line every time RHR is mentioned. It's really old and dull.
@@T_Mo271he needs to stop shouting all the time
Your crush on Sting Ray Robb was cute, but you've almost crossed the line into creepy. Keep up the good work!
I can confirm she has massive balls, i was in the grandstand at Rockingham in the early 2000s when Katherine Legg flip an F3 car right in front of me, it flipped back over and she got out like nothing happened
She's a crasher. Always will be.
When her wing failed and her car split in half at 180 mph at Road America in 2006, she walked away and said her only regret was that she was going to have bruises on her legs at the banquet that night and that she'd get back in the car if she could. Look that crash up if you haven't seen it, it's massive.
This race delivered. Made Monaco look completely pathetic. Which it didn't need!
Cautions for blown engines is to check for oil.
Larsons was in 1st gear on that restart and spun his tires. When he tried to upshift he grabbed 2nd, then double shifted into 4th. Rookie mistake. He made it to Charlotte for the Coca-Cola 600, but the race was called because of...rain and he didn't get in the car.
The storm that hit Charlotte was the same storm that hit Indianapolis earlier that day.
@@zeredwhirlpool7455 I live in Cincinnati. It hit us too!
I love both your F1 and Indy content. This was one of my favorite reviews. Next thing you know, you will be dipping your toes into the NASCAR waters, and your whole world will turn upside down!
What sucks about Larson’s double attempt is he missed the first half of the 600, being replaced by another driver, and then it rained and the race was called just before midnight.
Larson flew all the way to Charlotte for nothing.
Ouch
Stingray Robb leading the Indy 500 was not on my bingo card.
"Stingray qualified which means a free caution at some point" made me pause the video to calm myself down from laughing out loud
How could you not show the full save by Hunter-Reay! It was incredible, he did a 360 through the grass and caught it perfectly at 200 miles an hour!
The Graham Rahal AMR safety team joke was mint😂😂😂
I thought they were all cosplaying from The Lego Movie
Sting Ray Robb is officially the GOAT now 🐐
I would love to get into watching Indycar, but after watching F1 for 30+ years my brain is wired to only expect a handful of overtakes on a good weekend. A race as packed as the 500 would give me a stroke.
There is the rest of the season to get used to Indycar
You should watch the extended highlights though. The commentary is so enthusiastic and energetic and the racing so frenzied… it’s hard to keep your heartbeat down even watching the highlights
Good news then! There are some Indycar races that don't have quite as much passing as this, like St Pete and Gateway. So maybe those would be a good way to ween yourself onto the series. :)
Sting Ray Rob lead the race on lap 69! What a legend!
Greatest spectacle in racing
One word sums it up - fantastic!!! The Indy 500 shows once again why it's the world's biggest, best race. It was superb.
Seeing Danica commentating was the cherry on top 😄😄
Ryan McGee would be amazing but he is with ESPN
I went to take a piss right before the first round of pitstops not expecting much. When I came back I saw the name Robb at the top of the leaderboard and lost it. FP1 has corrupted me mentally
I felt so bad for Pato when he got passed on the last lap
When he took the lead before one. I was like fuck he's not going to win. He passed too soon he needed to send it in the back straight going into 3.
Hopefully he gets his dude is amazing for Indy.
Yeah he definitely should've waited a little longer for that pass. I was pretty surprised watching it that he made his move so soon.
U know I will never stop asking for a NASCAR comedy review so w the mention of Kyle Larson: I want a NASCAR comedy review for some races lol
Get a petition.
@@bentacc9217 idk but the NASCAR Haas Team died like yesterday so that would be an interesting topic to cover (showing how stupid Gene Haas is as he literally killed the more successful team)
Perhaps the Chicago Street Race, especially if ends up being as fun as it was last year.
Sting rays pit box was right in front of my seats, after the race we went by the fence and got to meet him and the creator: Sting rays mom. Told him he ran a great race.
Wholesome comment
I know you don't watch NASCAR, but I'd love to see you talk about the travesty that was the Coca Cola 600.
Or the travesty that is NASCAR in general.
a circuit that's a literal circle could deliver more fun than billionaire haven monaco
I’ve made it into a fp1will video. I was one of the mechanics on the veekay car
Congratulations. It’s mad that my content reaches this far 🤯
You cant spell sting ray robb without goat
Honestly, you should really think about giving NASCAR a try. I gave it a go this year on an off chance because you introduced me to IndyCar and through that helped me learn a bit more about the complexities and intracacies of oval racing. Best part is that NASCAR puts all of its races up on its channel for free after I think one week/two weeks, so you can watch the whole thing. They're a little too free with the caution flags and their competition cautions, but tha races are remarkably interesting considering the reputation for just driving around in circles.
Nice one Will. I thought your boy was going to cause an epic pile up when he didn't pit and wound up leading a restart but I prayed he wouldn't and because I think my thoughts can effect physical reality, he didn't. Just playing, StingRay. That aside, what a race. And what a contrast to the other 'triple crown' race earlier.. If Pato could've held on that place would have gone insane. His total devastation in the car after the race and in his post-race interview-and saying 'fuck' live on international TV-says it all about how much this race means.
As someone who was there, it was absolutely epic
Let's just wait a few weeks and see if Mr Roger's team doesn't get penalized again
I’ve always thought about what happens if a winning team gets caught cheating after the 500 later in the season like would it void their win or something? Or would it just be frowned upon?
0:47 greatest intro in the history of intros
I promise you, if you learn some NASCAR wheel, it’ll definitely be worth it 🙏
Great rundown of the 500, I love all your videos and congratulations on your continued and deserving success. I hope the views are good for your Indie videos as I'm in Vancouver Canada so have followed both series most of my life. Remember though this oval really is for round 90° turns. On relatively low bank. when they qualify it is put to the floor the entire time, no lifting whatsoever and of course to get the flying speeds you need to trim that car out. I guess what I'm saying is driving and becoming competent at this race track is the skill all its own. Oh one other thing we need to organize a violent coup for what they did to Andretti :-) keep it up brother love your content I'm doing a good service, in fact the Indie should be paying you for the marketing you're doing :-)
Another great IndyCar race review! But wow, that was one barnburner of a 500. As far as I'm concerned, the best in a long time. As the commentators noted, and as did I, pretty much the entire field was racing as though it was the last 10 laps from the starting green flag. Talk about 'wads' of cars that you could throw a blanket over. I noticed the 'four cars into Turn 1 won't work' as it happened. And it didn't. SO disappointed for Pato. But Newgarden's outside in 3 pass was brilliant.
What you’re missing about the hype of Larson is that the perception of him is that he’s the spiritual successor to Tony Stewart. That means people think he can win an Indycar championship or Indy 500 along with his NASCAR championship.
Had to wait too many hours for the start but I didn't have watch the cars just putter around at 80% speed and wait for a pass from one of the top 10 that never happened. Can you guess I'm talking about Monaco?
OK fess up, who was driving Stingray's car? Next thing you know Sargent will lead an F1 race. I can see needing more whiskey this season.
You got through the entire video and didn't mention grosjean once.....wow. what is happening
This is the first 500 that he actually finished
@@DJDouglasWarden I know. Just surprised he didn't make a silly joke about it
The fact that this was only 15 minutes is both impressive and sad
Feel so bad for Pato man
I was thinking of you the whole time as I watched Sting Ray rack up the THIRD most laps led of the race after the two Penske drivers who didn't do a Lance Stroll impression during the race...
Well done as always!
The Coca Cola 600 is NASCAR’s longest race. 600 miles at Charlotte Motor Speedway. It’s always the same day as Monaco and the Indy 500, the day before MemorialDay here in the US.
ngl that mightve been the best race I've ever watched
The race was fantastic in person… the worlds best drivers the most competitive series produces great results! Congratulations to one of the BEST… Joe New back 2 back Indy500 champ!
love your videos man keep up the good work
Glad you like them!
The practice sessions are the best! They’re free to enter and you can bring your own beer.
Wish you had more knowledge on Nascar, comedy reviews for nascar races would be gold😭
I agree. I’m subbed to a few nascar creators to keep up with the news, but watching them make cases for how great the racing is causes me more despair than laughter, could use a good channel taking the piss out of everything on nascars end
Ferrooch in the Stars and Stripes led 1 lap and finished 8th. In his 6 Indy 500 races he hasn't finished worse than 10th. The Spicy Sicilian is going to win one these days.
Brilliant video, first time watching the 500 after getting into it through your videos mate, i think I'm INDYoctrinated now
Glad to hear it!!
Excellent piece thank you very much!
That was an awesome race.Pato will get it sometime
Was sitting in t3. That pass from newgarden to win was the greatest pass ive ever seen. Hanging it on the outside at indy through the turn doesnt work and he got it to stick. Was amazing.
That last lap pass to win back to back was epic! Especially when he had just gotten passed at the beginning of the final lap pretty much!
Sting Ray leading the second mos amount of laps in the whole race deserved a mention too!
This was a phenomenal race! I was really gutted for Pato. I think he was trying to save his pass for the back straight but Josef saw it coming and 'let him by' at the start of the final lap. We were treated with one HELL of a nail-biting battle at the end. Kyle Larson did a fantastic job and was running top 10 most of the race. He'll be kicking himself for speeding in the pitlane, but even greats like Dixon have made that mistake before. Then there's Sting Ray who led the race for a few laps, albeit on a different strategy. It was still a solid race for him. Finally, there's Herta. Choked again, then checked out with a damaged wing.
One thing Indy has over Monaco, there's only 3 parade laps.
Monaco would be better with those suped up go carts instead of F1 cars.
@@Ceece20 Any race where qualifying predicts the end of the race is bad. I'd rather watch actual go carts than million dollar cars doing a parade. We had everything at Indy this year: engines being pushed too far and blowing up, this magical thing called overtakes, oh and actual competition.
It was a amazing race to watch in person
Best drivers in the world
Period
The fact they do three different types of tracks it’s just a amazing
Painful that I had to see Noah Gragson wreck in a FP1Will video 😭
Love the reviews of Indycar!
Went to Indy 500 for the first time, the worst part was waiting ~4hours to leave the damn lot
Yeah, traffic is bad, in and out.
lol yeah parking in an actual lot is a death sentence.. gotta find a random home next to a main street who will sell you their yard
This years was the worst by far, traffic management was awful on the way out. We camp out from Thursday-Sunday and usually have some dinner at the campsite after the race and then pack up, but we packed in the morning instead because of the rain. On normal years this is enough because by the time we're done with dinner and then packing the site, the traffic has normally thinned out. Doubt it would have turned out that way this year though.
If only there was a caution meme to go along with the red flag 😂
Do not summon him! He listens!
I love this channel so much.
Newgarden's pass on O'ward on the last lap happened right in front of me. Thank god those last 20 laps were green flag racing. Absolutely insane for a first time seeing the race in person.
10:12 he was so happy for Stingray! And the happy tone in 10:47 made me feel happy for Will and Stingray!!
Best motorsport highlights package channel on YT.
Legend!!
those last couple of laps were amazing
Raham Grahal 😂 these reviews are gold
great video for an insane race. bravo, sir!...i've watched Indy, Nascar & F1 (and most any other racing that involves stupidly powerful engines) since i was a little kid (and i'm now getting on a bit). i'm having a hard time remembering a better race than that in many, many years...though that might just be my age and 'brain failure'.
I think a Monaco "on track overtake vs DNF" count year to year will be interesting.
It's a shame about Canapino, he was having a huge race!! He fought equally against the greats. was for top10
Australia has one oval track near Melbourne call The Thunderdome. Washouts are regular (Melbourne gets lots of rain). On my visit there 30 years ago, they strapped a huge jet engine to a trailer with a deflection plate down onto the ground. This was driven around to try and displace the water. The problem was, the perimeter wall had no drain pipes to remove the water flowing down from the seating. They put holes in the wall to allow the water to run across the track, because the drains at the bottom of the track worked well. 🤣
I'm not Australian, but apparently Adelaide International Raceway has an oval too, 0.5 miles with very little banking, so probably like Martinsville.
I definitely want to race the Thunderdome in iRacing sometime though, I hope they scan it. 😂
That opening was unhinged and I love it
Those last 20 laps were insane, the lead pack was so tight.
The "IndyCar commentator team" from last year was James Hinchcliffe, and everyone else is part of the NASCAR crew. IDK what happened to people like Paul Tracy and others...
Monaco was a boring game of follow the leader.
The Coke 600 was reduced to the Coke 370 due to rain (...despite NASCAR waiting two hours before telling anyone the race was declared official.)
But holy _shit_ did Indy deliver!
Biggest reason so many were so aggressive most of the race was that rain delay!
Such a good race ❤
Double upload good day
