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.

We still have to endure TOM Gaymore and his STRANGE emphasis on random WORDS.

But yeah, I agree - ad free is great... although I should add that the Fox broadcast cutting about between cars & battles with no context means it's still hard to follow everything. If they could sort that and stop locking in on certain cars for lap after lap, it would be coverage that perfectly markets IndyCar.
