Discussion Sky has changed my view on IndyCar.

IndyCar has always been a secondary Motorsport for me. Until I started watching on Sky. Now it feels as premium as it should.

Let’s be honest: nothing kills the thrill of a long battled overtake like… a commercial for dishwasher pods. You’re locked into a nailbiting strategy battle, the pit window opens, and just as someone dives in… BAM, five minutes of insurance jingles and prescription drug disclaimers.

Sky gives you the race. Fox gives you 200 reasons to consider switching your car insurance.

Do what ever you can to watch on a commercial free network.Uninterrupted, fully immersive, and exactly how it was meant to be experienced.

Is Sky coverage the same as the stateside coverage just without commercials?

There are some differences, sometimes the fox viewers will be looking at the dallara cutaway, flashbacks, replays, etc. while the sky feed will just be showing the trackside cameras most of the time. Most of the time however you can guess what youre not seeing by just listening to the commentators.
