I don't normally watch IndyCar but do they always start with that huge spacing between groups? There were like 5 car lengths between each line of 3 cars.

Also, did that yellow car have a spotter to tell him someone was outside???

Yes and yes



 Not "always"   Back it the day they got them tree wide and tight at the starting line.   Go back and look at the Salt Walthers wreck

Lots of Sato hate. Karam drifted up into him in the shortchute. Either his spotter didn't do his job or he ignored his spotter.

I picture  Sato looking all serious mad with a kamikaze headband under his helmet. They have unleashed him again. Banzaiiii!

It would appear that more people fill the stands for Indycar than NASCAR these days.

Perhaps Indycar should add a spongebob 500 or maybe a spit cup 400

I picked one up at the last Baltimore Grand Prix. I don't know how much they weigh, but for their size, they are ridiculously light. Very manageable to move one handed
