he isn't pushing it 100% IMHO, he is not getting close enough to the walls, and everyone knows that the closer you get to the walls, the faster you are. It's not about settings or anything, it's about driving skills and being used to drive proper race tracks, not ovals.
How many crashes alone in this years Toronto race? 15 - 20? More than half the race was spent under yellow. How many crashes at this years Monaco GP? Which is a tighter circuit too. One, that caused a red flag so the debris and cars could be cleared. But the race continued. How long was the montreal gp postponed? But it still happened. With less crashes in heavy rain than the toronto race in the dry... That says something about the drivers in the different leagues.
@crytycyl futhermore these cars are much more difficult to handle because of the extreme amount of oversteer and the lack of setup options they have compared to F1. the difference between the two is like a road bike and a mountainbike racing each other in the tour de france. Personally i like both and i watch both, i grew up watching F1 and love it, but in terms of racing Cart and indycar have always been more exciting because all the cars are much more even in performance
@crytycyl they are F1 rejects because they either dont have the connections or enough money, not making it in F1 really can have nothing to do with talent, when people say indycar is faster, they are right in terms of top speed capability on ovals compared to f1 cars which is an unfair comparison, but then again its unfair to compare a car that costs a tenth of the price of the other. its like comparing superbike and motoGP.
@Ferrari123planb I actually disagree. Indycars have to be designed to cope with both ovals as well as road courses. As a result they can't take road courses in the same way that F1 cars can. These cars generate a LOT of understeer making them cars difficult to drive. Whilst it's true that F1 cars are more tentative on throttle, that advantage is negated by the generally bumpier surfaces in Indycars making it harder to put the throttle down. IMHO Indy is harder to "drive" but is physically easier
@Hmkls ran out of arguments? how come after all these road courses in indy car the top 3 are all international? and how come indy car calls it the "open wheel world championship" when they do 3 international races, and they have almost 200 HP less than F1 cars? and how come the average attendance of a F1 race is 155,000 this year when the sonoma race on tv right now has 25,000 people at it? please answer, cuz im sure F1 is harder and much more popular, although indy car isnt easy, its not F1.
