Unbelievable how 1992 wasn't included in this... The best Indy 500 finish and probably the best Indycar finish call by any commentator, not just radio. Shameful
I would update this list to include the 2024 500 mile race. 2 lead changes on the very last lap. Imo, 1 of, if not the greatest, most improbable finish in the 40+ years I've been alive, watching this event, and possibly ever in the events history. I don't recall there ever being 2 lead changes on the last lap.
Taku was almost there and didnt make it in 2012, but he reached in 2017, and again got it in 2020 with the team which he didnt make it in 2012. this is so dramatic. Taku is the hero of Japanese motorsport.
The insane Thing: Later the SAME DAY, Dale Earnhardt Jr choked it on the Final Lap of the Coke 600. The one Thing that unifies them. National Guard was Sponsoring both of em
Love the content but the title is disrespectful. The title should be something like: 'History will be made!': The best Indianapolis 500 radio calls of the 2000s The revised title would be fine, but to call this the best all time with NOTHING from 1955 to 2000 is inaccurate. The best radio call of all time could easily be 1992, 1986, 1982, 1960, or other examples from the previous century. Please take this as intended, constructive criticism. I love IMSP. I wish I worked there. I will fly over 1,400 miles to be there for race weekend 2024, we love IndyCar and the Indy 500!!
From Sid Collins, through Paul Page, and Bob Jenkins, to Mike King...somehow, some way, the folks that run the IMS Radio Network somehow, some way, manage to always put the right people in the right spots in the right moments for the Indy 500. Somehow. Some way. Is there something in the water in Indianapolis that makes spotting great radio talent easy?a EDIT: And there's Paul with the Wheldon, it's Wheldon part, mostly down to Mike King forgetting for a moment how to radio and being distracted by JR hitting the wall
3:00 Honestly disgraceful how they cut from the battle just because of the crash. Probably the reason why we'll never 100% surely know if Tracy made the move before the caution
later it was shown on the replay that he did made the pass before the yellow lights came on, but at the end none of that mattered because the race director made the call "3 is the leader" and that decision was final
@@chifurbr I have to disagree with you on that cause the Caution lights came on there in Turn 2 when it happened and they were to show it frame by frame after the race was over and you can see that Paul didn't complete the pass until after the accident!
@@Michael-gu5klof course I have. They’re both legends. It would be silly and foolish for me to not know who Bob Jenkins and Paul Page are. (Plus I’m reading Paul’s book too) But there’s something I’ve liked about Mike King and his energy. He’s underrated. Nobody talks about him. I am not sure what happened to him after 2013.
@@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT I'm just giving you a hard time and the reason why he left is cause he took a new job and they wouldn't let him take time off for the Month of May or for IndyCar!
Tracy was robbed because he was a CART driver while Penske/Castroneves switched to IRL starting 2002. Had the situation been reversed Helio still would’ve won I bet.
not according to IndyCar rules at the time. Like it or not, it didn't matter if the pass was made in time. At that time in IndyCar, when a yellow came out, scoring would revert to the previous scoring loop reached under green flag conditions. That scoring loop had Helio in the lead. Sucks for Tracy, sure, but as per the rules at the time, Helio was the rightful winner. Nowadays, the field is frozen at the moment of caution, and under today's rules, there's definitely an argument to be made for Tracy winning.
@@schuylerschultz804 Nope what the commentator said was erroneous. This is seemingly what Tony George said at the appeal decision: On July 2, 2002, Tony George issued an 18-page decision on the appeal. He upheld the victory of Hélio Castroneves, and denied Team Green's appeal. In his decision, George stated that "Clearly Helio (Castroneves) was in front when the call (for the yellow) was made" and that several of the caution signals, including trackside and dashboard lights, a radio announcement and a flag closing the pits, were displayed before Tracy's pass. George also accepted Penske's arguments that, even if Tracy was ahead before the caution, the decision to call Castroneves the leader was an unappealable judgment call.
RIP Dan and RIP Gil.

1992 and 1982 are the best IMS Radio Network calls of all time.
“He’s making a move! NO! NO!”
@@cbr3220that was on tv, by Jim McKay
I heard the 82 call once... Rodger Ward was doing color
And unfortunately there NOT included in this video
11:25 I wish Hildebrand would have a chance at a win like this again... Always sad that he choked it despite it giving the win to Wheldon

@@hallo_welt_ag Oh yeah that as well
Penske Marlboro...the best car Of the World
It's a great one, but Marlboro McLaren was better
The greatest spectacle in the world! And waking up race day morning is like Christmas!!
1992 was the best call of all time. end of story
WE ❤ INDYCAR AND THE INDY 500
The 2006 Indy 500 Finish was CRAZY
This Video is Masterpiece

Exactly this! 1992 is the best by far and ridiculous how it's not in this video
23:02 WOW
Last Year's Indy 500 was ONE FOR THE AGES ALSO THE CALL BY IMS RADIO NETWORK WAS THE BEST IN YEARS.

IMS Radio Network always Bring Awesome Calls from the Indy 500 on the Radio
「すごいものを見ている!!」
日本のキャスター陣最高でしたね!
A lenda Helio Castroneves 🏁🏁🏁

1:20 Wait is this Kevin Lee 😂 Surely not but for me it sounds so simlar
Yes it was
Josef Newgarden’s race was the best by far!
2021 is better by far
Always wondered how those radio guys think of new and interesting to say on every lap. I mean there is 200 laps!
Stay Tuned For The Greatest Spectacle In Racing.
I was the 500th like, on the best Indy 500 calls. Just sayin
Helio Castroneves represented Brazil and was the biggest winner in Indy500.
Yea right!
I miss Mike King
I take it you never got a chance to listen to Paul Page and Bob Jenkins?

@@mikulitsi1819exactly
Sam Hornish ruined Indy car with that pass…. Indy car desperately needed a name to keep the brand alive in the mind 2000’s
You really think Marco would have done that if he won?
Marco Andretti is to Indycar what Kyle Petty is to NASCAR.
2011 was terrible
Dieses Zick-Zack fahren ist so gefährlich und unfair. Jeder, der so fährt, sollte bestraft werden.
That is why they BANNED it coming out of Turn 4 now!
