Which stop is this on The Ratings Bloodbath Express? Maybe they'll stop the bleeding and get more viewers than the Sham Wow informercials this week, but there's no way in hell they're beating the Magic Bullet.

It's on Versus, of course the IndyCar Series will have lower ratings than the average of games 3 and 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals on the same channel, what the hell did you expect?

I want to see how low they can go, like limbo.

I hope that this weekend there is a team that can challenge Penske or Ganassi for the win.

Well Wheldon might have a chance if he can keep up his practice pace.

Ironic how you can watch an IndyCar race from Texas on free-to-air television in New Zealand but not in the country where the race is being run...

yea, but it's probably going to be the only race of the year that is... and they would have paid quite a bit for it, for the rest of the races it's all on sky, same with F1

Long race, they could take themselves out in a four car pile up.

No. Presumably because of the football that's on at the same time.

There is no football on at the same time as the Indycar race. On any of their four channels.
