Colton Herta's HISTORIC First IndyCar Win 

No. COTA isn’t really the best track, in my opinion. Also we already have WAY too many road courses in the sport

Not necessarily but not against it either

Yes

@@ericmarchesini4883 yes for me

IndyCar needs more races, and this is a top level circuit in North America, so yes, absolutely

I agree. I'd like to be able to afford to attend another race there. God knows I sure as hell ain't going to be able to get there to see F1 ever again. Went from going to every single USGP at Indy, to going to see the race at COTA 2 times.

Unfortunately the 2020 race was cancelled due to the pandemic. Then Nascar went to the track in 2021, and it seems like IndyCar was pushed a side for that. I also believe IndyCar has a deal with the Texas Motor Speedway that prevents them from returning.

​​@@Demise90Racing I don't know this for sure, but I'm fairly certain that condition about TMS is long-gone. I think that was Eddie Gossage's deal in response to the Houston races. New management and contacts since then. It wasn't even guaranteed IndyCar would return to TMS in '23, so I doubt the series felt the need to give exclusivity like that. And I think the renewal after last year was for only this year Basically, I don't think it's likely that's currently in effect. Maybe on TMS' next deal if the '23 TMS race does well. But it's no secret the attendance there has decayed.

@@niftyfiftytwo1484 I definitely have to do a little more digging into that. A lot has changed with TMS and IndyCar since 2019.

@@Demise90Racing Yeah, don't take my word on that. I feel like I'm remembering about half the info lol

Hahaha 100%

It is a shame. After the 2020 race was cancelled due to the pandemic, and Nascar going there in 2021, it sort of seems IndyCar was just pushed aside. I believe IndyCar has some sort of agreement with Texas Motor Speedway that prevents them from returning as well.

I agree. I'd love to see one of IMS road course races get replaced with COTA.

Yeah they were cool. Unfortunately went away when the aero screens came along.

god me too, i feel like they could make a new version of em that could be even better

As always. Thank you very much 😁

Next week's video is already done, but coming soon, I promise.

Hell yeah. Spoiler alert. Next week is IndyCar too 👍

Basically a child hahah

@@Demise90Racing yes lol

a lot of us born in the 90s didn't either, we were alive but we don't remember it and were too young to understand it when it happened

Yeah, he does make silly mistakes and has given away races he had won for sure. I still think F1 will happen as long as Andretti is officially on the grid.

@@Demise90Racing if they let him join.

@@lonewolf2513 that's true. It seems like the Super License point system is not changing.

@@Demise90Racing IndyCar needs Andretti more than F1. A bounceback is bound to occur and hopefully teammates don't collide with one another as I witnessed firsthand last year

👍👍👍👍👍

Most definitely 👍

They have to be invited back, and with NASCAR taking that spot, it doesn't look like they'll be going back any time soon.

You think so? I think it's a great track for IndyCar. Although the run offs shouldn't be as abused.

As long as the rule is the same for everybody, I don't care if they go out of bounds before pit lane. When the WEC and Austrailian Supercars raced there, cars were allowed to straight line the esses after Turn 1.

​@@danielhenderson8316love watching WEC races here, the gt3s especially look so good on this track for sure
