Fox Sports sucks in general, they always tape delay the damn races and it really pisses me off.

@vinsong Maybe in a Go Kart loaded with more electronic stuff than the LHC, but in a pre-driver aids F1 car, he wouldn't stand a chance.

formula 1 cars are much faster than indy cars on road tracks, both raced at the CGV in canada each year and formula 1 pole is generally 7-8 seconds faster than pole from indy.

obviously going around in circles is a lot different hence why indy cars have higher top speed but if an f1 car was to race on an oval track, it wouldnt take much for the gears to be changed to suit the oval. buttons old honda F1car peaked at 414 km/h(256 mph) yet did it under normal FIA regulations & strict restrictions
