These were absolutely the best IndyCar years (they will always be Indycars for me, as in my opinion IRL doesn't count). I'm from Germany and we had Eurosport showing every race and sometimes even NASCAR. And I've always loved this track. Almost like a small Nürburgring. Would have liked to see F1 or MotoGP there
One thing to note is that TV makes this all look calm and controlled. This is VERY different in real life. The speed, the noise, the tear gas produced from the methanol burning engines all make this to be a beautiful symphony of chaos.
Consider how absolutely stacked this series was in 1999. Every row of this starting grid contained a champion or race winner except for the very last row.
