Well, that's certainly a lot better than them being scattered around multiple networks.  It was a bit rediculous this last season.

For Fox? In the majority of the country, a $10 antenna will pick it up.

If I'm not mistaken, I think some Fox programming is included in Hulu, so that might be another avenue to watch.

(Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.)

Sargeant to get IndyCar test with Meyer Shank He might not be able to get a seat with MSR, but atleast he is able to show his talent.

Also I am using a $15 HD antenna that I cemented in a 5 gallon pale that I move around, it is hooked up to 4 TV's with a Amp. Fox comes in well, but a bit bummed that I will likely not be able to see qualifying and practice like I did with Peacock. Hulu+ live TV comes with local fox, but I am not going to spend the extra I will just watch the highlights on youtube.

Honestly, I have that I was the second post and immediately complained...so sorry about that! Reality is my goal this year was to watch more indycar, and I'll do the same next year whether I have to get an antenna or another sub.

I read that Jamie Chadwick might get some drives next year so that will be really neat to watch!

On the TV front, if this Venu thing ever ends up happening, it would be a possible place for Fox to put things like practice and qualifying. If not, maybe they will be on FS1 or FS2? I'm hoping. But at least all the races themselves will be on free over-the-air. That's something.

Meanwhile, it's almost October, and we still don't know where, or even if, Alex Rossi will be racing next year. indecision

I have to say, I miss the event on the streets of Nashville. Not so much for IndyCar, but for Trans Am and SRO. Loved watching those and the vibe in the paddock area.

Rossi teaming with Rasmussen at Ed Carpenter Racing it became more obvious when Gelov bought a stake in Carpenter. RLL, Juncos, and DCR I think are the only seats not accounted for.

Michael Andretti to "leave" his ownership position in Andretti Global.

Wow! I don't know exactly what it means, but I can't imagine it's good.

Curious about what that means for the factory at silverstone...that nice new one they just hired a bunch of people for.

Gotta admit, I had no idea that Liberty had such a personal hatred for Michael. Maybe this will break the logjam?

From the look of the Liberty CEO comment I doubt they would accept having the Andretti name on the team. But, the Andretti name is recognized worldwide. It is marketable. It sounds like a very personal issue.

With Michael out, so to speak, if the entrant name were to change I would imagine that would be a signal they will continue to seek F1 entry. But then what happens with Cadillac – GM without the marketability of Andretti?

Drugovich, Chadwick complete first IndyCar tests at Barber  Drugovich no doubt is fast, I wonder how complicated getting out of his AM contract would be or if he can race in indycar, Juncos would probably be a good fit for him.

Just heard this news from an F1 perspective.  What in the world?

RLL signs Indy NXT champion Foster  Vips is on retainer, but Veekay is probably the better driver to take the 3rd seat. It will be interesting what they do, Juncos still has 2 seats, DCR 2 seats, and Prema has 1 seat (which in another article it was said that Veekay is not a candidate). Still some tests to happen with drivers without seats, which could also stir the pot.

Deegan Shifting Gears to INDY NXT with HMD in 2025 she probably has a bigger social media following that half the ICS field, I enjoy watching her on youtube, because she built a kart track and she did a F3 test. This is a pretty big step from F3, not sure if the nascab stuff will apply to the NXT.

I expect her to be a threat on the ovals because a lot of the NXT field has 0 experience with that, but there are only 4 of those on the schedule. She didn't really excel at road courses in Nascar (although she didn't excel anywhere) but she was very near the front of the field when she ran in the Michelin Pilot Challenge races so it will be interesting to see where she stacks up.

Thermal IndyCar test While I think that money is going to dictate the 4-5 seats left, it was interesting to see how quickly up to speed Logan was and Hunter McElrea. 

IndyCar silly season update: November edition Can you imagine the damage bill for a Romain Grosjean and a Sting Ray combo at Juncos? (If that happens)
