I friggin loved Indy! Italian guys running up and down the streets in traffic with Ferrari flags! Was so fun! On behalf of the city that already learned, enjoy it! First year will be packed then dramatic drop offs on the way to meeting the same fate as Indy. US just will never embrace it like NASCAR. Pity

We have one of our field engineers that has a couple of acres 4 miles from the track. We're going to drive an RV up and camp out on his property

Thats good news - been to all the Indy F1 races! My wife simply refused to go on the orig. dates but now she may change her mind. She loves F1 just as much as I do. Your right, Indy was awesome for F1 racing. Too bad it had to go. Hate that little weesel Bernie; I here he only asks for your first born to host an event

Formula 1 became a joke after eliminating pit-stops and stupid amount of rulez, miss that v10 sound

No doubt, the F1 fans are fanatic. F1 weekend was a blast. It is too bad it left Indy.

I'll be there! I have 2 friends that live there, I don't need to worry about the hotel. I love F1 racing but Indy was not the best race on the calendar, the race in Montreal is awesome!
