F1 should not be on the OVAL tracks! High speed racers like these should be on Majestic Race tracks, with twist and turns, hair pins and Straight away. With off camber curves, sloping/banking long turns Etc. Then you can hear the engines whine and go thru the gears, down shifting and heavy late breaking, that RACING! This, going around in circle is for test engines. They turned it into racing. 210MPH!
Tony Kanaan said it all. All those 'expert' bench racers who thing the experienced guys are bunch of whiners should try to take a car around a killer tracker like this at 200-plus miles an hour (they would die). Kanaan undoubtedly remembers the senseless death of his best buddy -- Greg Moore. Only the brainless kid drivers who think they can never die would think this sort of idiotic lunacy is real auto racing.
Definitely the most exciting race I've ever seen, but I do understand the concerns from Tim Cindrick and Will Power. The drivers did a top job, barring Graham Rahal, he was just reckless, he put many drivers in real danger. Yes, he's a man on a mission, but don't do it by scaring the living crap out of your competitors. Shout out to my man Will Power, sad it ended like this, thought he was in for a win for sure on this one.
Stands to reason the all powerful,four car,moneybags,expect to win every race Penske....will whinge a bit! I was whinging a bit myself,when here in the UK,SKY,who I pay a lot of money to,gave up Indy to BT....Hoever,thanks to the wonderful,TH-cam,I can watch the race three days later,without having known the result. BEST RACE EVER...I feel like I've been rode hard and put away wet!
Why, just why, the venue that provided the best Indycar race this season, and arguably one of the best in recent memory, is not going to have an Indycar race next season?
Because southern California has the worst sports fans in the world. Noone came to the race. They barely get people even to the Nascar race. Keep in mind, this is the sane city that lost 2 NFL teams due to poor attendance.
+InvisibleTeeth I agree with your opinion of the lack of attendance for the Indy races but I went to the 2013 cup race and it was sold out. It was crazy seeing the mile long sea of endless people from our seat in turn 4. They have been afraid of the dangers of pack racing in Indy car since Dan Wheldon's death at Vegas and this was a reminder of it, even if it was the best race in recent memory.
Chris Chujkal yes and no, they are different types of crashes. The ones we saw at Indy were cars that backed it into the wall and then flew over as a result of the impact/air. Cars getting sideways into the grass at 200+ mph almost always results in a blowover, even in NASCAR. It's hard to solve that problem as long as there are high speeds.
Why did not the officials drop the red flag at POCONO after Sage Karem and the late Justin Wilson crash..? It was a great race,as was this one, IMHO, THEY ruined it, by throwing the yellow., thus leaving all fans with the drawn out wasted yellow flag laps, instead of ,"Thinking" ahead and creating the best finish for the drivers ,fans and all. Indycar is run by incompetent, idiots. 50 year fan.
Some real Baboonazzoles, here! AA, USAC, CART, IRL, ChampCar and whatever... A regular alphabet soup, as with aviation, FAA and the USAF. And we get kiddies commenting on what they know not. Piss off! You need to live through something like 1964 or Bill's DEATH, in '55.... I was only about 6, but I CRIED!! WE cried! My Dad knew the man.... We listened every year on RADIO Until my Dad was hospitalized.. 1960... I listened to the Radio 500, even when it came to broadcast TV. Better reporting. '64 was on the big screen at Curtiss Hixon Hall, Tampa. A 35 cent Greyhound Bus Ride into town I was enraged at Dave MacDonald's ass end out driving In the Harvey Thompson car....full of GASOLINE!! (SAME way he drove the Cobras at the Daytona 2000Km. and Sebring 12 King Cobras at the USRRC...) He drove like that all month, then he took poor Eddie Sachs with him. Sachs was one of the nicest guys to ever grace Indy.. Fierce on the track, but great off it.... a true gentleman. Killed by an ego maniac! And I LOVE road racing and Shelby American... Ferrari! But that's MY opinion! And that of many others who were THERE! My friend Bill "Spider" Webb was there. Confirmed all I said... Looked like Pearl Harbor, or WORSE! I worried for Jim Clark, until he came out of it. The whole thing was VERY hard to take At age 15, or so.. As bad as Sebring, '66..... Too much DEATH. J.C.
I hate this shit Penski killer track. It killed Canada's best (besides Gilles) race driver. The best of the best CART driver -- Greg Moore. RIP Greg and damn Roger the Dodger.
Hahahahaha Will Power crashes out again, it doesn't matter who's fault it was, if it's Dixon or Sato, this proves Will is anything but a true championship material. He can nothing but whine and cries that he didn't even finish the race. As a New Zealander, I felt so good that Will Power didn't score any points in this race.
Jack Huang That was the most ignorant thing I've ever read. He voiced his concerns, but at the same time, he was running up front most of the race, and when he did get shuffled back, he came right back to the front. You're laughing at another man's misfortune because he was at the wrong place at the wrong time, there's nothing he could have done about Sato going into the slide, which, after bumping Dixon he had no where to go. That has nothing to do with how good or bad Power is. You're just missing something between your ears, or just a hater. I think both. Next time, save some dignity and don't post anything because it won't be worth reading.
These guys complain and wine that they don't want pack racing because it is too dangerous. They signed up for this as a career so walk the walk or get into the follow the leader racing which is also known as Formula 1 where the leader going into the first corner of lap 1 useualy wins the race 99 percent of the time
![Indycar 2015. Round 11. Fontana. California. Race [Part 1/2]](/img/n.gif)
This is just race of the year in any car motorsport
Easily the best and most exciting race I've seen in years. Probably since 2011 Canadian GP.
This is far better racing than NASCAR. Yet NASCAR is still more popular. That was the best racing I've seen all year!
BEST
INDYCAR
RACE
EVER
And last Sunday was one of the worst indycar races ever.
Like it or not, this was the best race since the 2013 Indy 500. Way more exciting than all of the boring road and street course races.
I enjoyed the race when I watched it and I was surprised at the finish
It always works out that the driver trying to kill everyone he passes wins doesn't it? Greatest Indy race since it was called IRL. IMO
What a great and exciting race! :)
I'm glad Ryan Briscoe and the others that crashed are okay.
Fantastic stuff!
Breathtaking! 100% Flat out racing! Amazing!. Hats off to Indycar

Dangerous or not, this was the best race I've ever seen out of any racing series this season so far. This was an incredible spectacle.
Chives5150 It was great to watch. Edge of the seat stuff
Thanks for uploading the indycar, Awesome race to watch
million thanks fo uploading
not a fan of ovals but that was an amazing race from start to finish. probably the best oval race i have seen except for a 3 wide finish.
Very good upload thanks! That was a great race : D
Best race ever forever changed my view of IndyCar
can't believe this race isn't coming back...
Thank you so much
Fontana was built for this kind of racing! Indycar should race here twice a year!
Tony Kanaan said it all.

I agree it's too dangerous but what can be done? Just drop the track from the series? - Penske built it.
What a pass by Sato just after 42:05!
Definitely the most exciting race I've ever seen, but I do understand the concerns from Tim Cindrick and Will Power.
The drivers did a top job, barring Graham Rahal, he was just reckless, he put many drivers in real danger. Yes, he's a man on a mission, but don't do it by scaring the living crap out of your competitors.

more power uploader :)
I bet nixon's gonna make a compilation of Steve Matchett's weird noises. 😂😂😂
KyleBuschPackFan Matchett saw more passes in one race than in the last 10 years of Formula 1.
Chives5150 XD
Every time a rear wheel bumper is knocked off, one life is saved (or at least, spared of injury)!
Stands to reason the all powerful,four car,moneybags,expect to win every race Penske....will whinge a bit! I was whinging a bit myself,when here in the UK,SKY,who I pay a lot of money to,gave up Indy to BT....Hoever,thanks to the wonderful,TH-cam,I can watch the race three days later,without having known the result. BEST RACE EVER...I feel like I've been rode hard and put away wet!
Promote open wheel racing and you are a friend of mine. Thanks for the upload!
Any idea when milwalkee mile is put up?
22:20 - restart
38:35

dat was fast :)
Lap 136 proves they fixed the going airborne problem.
Alcochaser last lap didnt

LOWER RYAN. GET LOWER.
Three, Four.... FIVE WIDE!
Insane!
Los Vegas all over again!
IRL needs to leave these 1.5 and 2 mile NASCAR tracks to NASCAR!
Except Los Vegas was a lot smaller = less time and room to avoid.
Dr. Hash
Malarky!
***** IRL is no longer in existence pal
IRL whatever.
TROLL!
F1andIndycarfan28
I've been following Indy since 1953
At age 4!
The days of Bill Vuckovich.
The Cummings Diesel ROADSTER
So piss off, kiddie!
Warning for blocking? How fucking stupid. Blocking is a part of racing!
GR wins after getting NO penalty for pulling his fuel hose off and ,,eerrrgghhh what a mess this Indycar is,,,,,,,
Why did not the officials drop the red flag at POCONO after Sage Karem and the late Justin Wilson crash..?

Piss off!
You need to live through something like 1964
or Bill's DEATH, in '55....
I was only about 6, but I CRIED!!
WE cried!
My Dad knew the man....
We listened every year on RADIO
Until my Dad was hospitalized.. 1960...
I listened to the Radio 500, even when it came to broadcast TV.
Better reporting.
'64 was on the big screen at Curtiss Hixon Hall, Tampa.

Second victory in his career? Pathetic.
Not everyone can be so dominant
