https://speedsport.com/indy/indycar-series/indycar-notes-diversity-is-key-to-success/2/ Can't copy-paste it so here's a screenshot!  Roger is shopping around pretty hard it seems like. Looks like NBC is done after this year unless they can pay up or kiss rear end big-time. NBCSN going bye-bye is probably a huge deal here. If they go with ABC/ESPN they're going to need to not go back to the lovely production and booth guys of the recent past. ESPN+ is $6 a month so I guess practice sessions will go there? I bet they'll show races live, at least. If Fox gets it, they'll put practice on FS1/FS2 more than likely. Plus they can pull in more of the NASCAR crowd as more of the seasons will overlap. If there's still a streaming component, that's not just "you can watch the cable channels on the Fox GO app with authentication!!!" I wonder if this will give wiggle room for Indycar to start an OTT service? And for the love of God, get Allen Bestwick to call the races. Maybe Dario in the booth, too?

ScooterMcTiny posted:Anyone been to the Long Beach Grand Prix? Looking to get tickets for the race in September and wondering where the best vantage points are. A GA ticket is all you really need to see everything and see it well. You're going to be on foot most of the time anyway. But having a reserved ticket is nice because you know you will have a seat for the races and don't have to sweat it. Saturday has literally everything going on, so much so that some years I don't bother coming back on Sunday for the race because I've had my fill at that point. But if it's your first time, you'll want all three days to see everything properly. The best grandstands for Sunday IMO are 40 (turn 1) and 6 (turn 6), since you can see them coming down Shoreline at top speed and two passing zones on opposite sides of each other. There are also two video boards in the area. I always sit in stand 6 for the IMSA race, it's free for GA on Saturday but you'll need to scope out a spot at least an hour in advance. Alternatively, you can have 27-31 for a finish line/pit view, 29 being the best as it's right in front of the video board. I'm not a fan of stands 24-26 after the hairpin exit since you don't get much except a very close view of slow cars. Stand 16-18 at the Turn 10/11 hairpin complex is nice, too. There won't be a lot of passing here but you'll see the cars work going around the left hander into the hairpin. The drift competitions take place at these corners, and you don't need a reserved ticket to go up into the grandstands. IMO this is also the best spot to see Super Stadium trucks because they have a ramp under the crossover bridge between turns 9 and 10 and the trucks will get airborne at an angle! Be sure to visit under the bridge at pit exit at the start of one of the races. It's a natural echo chamber, which is the perfect place to experience the sounds of dozens of shouty race cars going at full song. The underside of the convention center in the middle of the backstretch also has this effect but it's not as pronounced since the cars will be more spread out and not going at top speed. Turn 8 is THE BEST place to check out Indycar practice or qualifying. The plaza for the convention center is elevated. When you're up there you can get a fantastic top-down view of the cockpits and the drivers fighting and twitch-reacting on the steering wheel. It's recommended you get there a little before a session starts to get a spot on the rail, but even if you have to wait you'll still be able to get a good view eventually. The hairpin is best seen on-foot, right up against the outside fence. It's always crowded here, so if you want a nice view you need to get there early before a session begins. I like being here for IMSA practice. You can really appreciate the cars from up close, and also see how well they turn and accelerate. Good photo ops through the fencing, too.

The Trans Am race was pretty interesting. There was a race-long 4 or 5 car train up front battling for the lead, but passing only happened with mistakes. Rafa Matos started 17th and got up to 2nd before some contact put him down the order again. Adam Andretti was leading before a belt snapped and KO'd him. A fair number of cars were spinning and binning, but only two or three cautions for them not being able to clear themselves out of the way. Lap traffic made things interesting for the leaders! A good race in the end. Also, SST continues to kick major rear end!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l9t2L-Nz2o
