I agree. I was thinking more of three abreast Indycars all heading to the first turn, waiting to see who's going to lift or who's going to crash.

I saw most of the F1 races at Indy and granted, the track set up was poor, but I still stand by my statement. While that "one well executed F1 pass" is exciting, I have to watch countless hours of mind-numbing single-file racing to find it. I think changing the brakes and the down force is the ticket to more exciting racing. How can you out-brake someone when they can go from 180 MPH to 50 MPH in a couple of seconds?
