Well OJ almost got a certain guy murdered and he did have to publicly apologize for pushing his OJ brand. And I think Indy would understand that more than telling the dairy board no thanks

But I do think Kat is vegan, think that was an IMSA something that actually stuck like most random crap in my brain for no reason. No idea about Romain

Another random crap that sticks moment reminded me of RoGro talking of Veganism, particularly Lewis Hamilton's choices. RoGro is, it seems, qualified to talk on the subject having co-written cook books with his wife.

He felt Vegan diets were negative for athletes because they just couldn’t have enough nutrition or nourishment in their system for high-demand exercising.

He “fully respects vegan” consumption and said plant-based food “tastes quite good in some aspects.” Not for him though as a regime as he knew of what it lacks and it does not meet his needs.... plus he knew endurance athletes going vegetarian or vegan and they had to stop their vegan diets because of lack of nourishment.

One of the many reasons Indy is such a great race is because champagne just doesn't hit the spot like some milk after all that exertion. I would also choose the whole milk.

Been watching Johncock VS Mears 1982 and Unser Jr VS Goodyear 1992 and hoping we get something close like that.

would be awesome if Graham Rahal wins the race...

**bjohnsonsmith** · 27 May 2023, 15:04 (Ref:4158202)

Final practice times.

Carb day times suggest that is not going to be a possibility.

**Born Racer** · 28 May 2023, 05:08 (Ref:4158251)

Just thinking about those times, Tony Kanaan is still looking really fast. What an awesome swansong that would be if he were to do it, and it seems feasible. There is a really interesting batch of drivers in the field this year.

Anything Tony does, a top ten. or a top five or a top three, will be a fitting end to a great career.
But I agree with you, for him to win it would be the ultimate sign off.
And he has the speed and ability to be in the right place if the opportunity falls his way.

We don't have a dedicated shirt thread like we do for Le Mans, but this is my Indy shirt for today

Hawkwood · 28 May 2023, 14:18 (Ref:4158311)

What’s the actual start time locally? I’ve Googled it and it says race start is 12:45, but the IndyCar Twitter just said it starts at 11am?
Obviously that’s a huge difference, and I need to travel to get to my TV screen!

rika · 28 May 2023, 14:22 (Ref:4158315)

Does any one know when the race start is? I can not find that.

Can you please tell me, and tell me which time zone otherwise it is still hard to know!
Thanks!

Also, do you know where we can watch it? There is no official live stream I think?
So we will have to find pirate stream if we want to watch?

No?

The green flag is 12:45 ET, i guess the 11am figure is when the TV coverage starts

Rahal teams already starting to pack away their garages.

**bjohnsonsmith** · 28 May 2023, 14:35 (Ref:4158319)

Sky Sports F1 are broadcasting from 5:30pm BST, which is 4:30pm UTC, 12:30pm EDT.

rika · 28 May 2023, 14:41 (Ref:4158320)

We are UTC + 2 so that is 18:30 where I am now.

ET and EDT form previous 2 answers is that the same?
Time zones is hard to understand some times!

Is there any thing else than Sky that is having this race?
There is no Sky here.

For watching the race ET and EDT are the same. Where abouts are you?

rika · 28 May 2023, 15:02 (Ref:4158328)

I am at the moment in Belgium. Western Europe

**Adam43** · 28 May 2023, 15:13 (Ref:4158331)

So six hours difference to ET.

Strong shirt action there.

I am weighing up watching it outside...

rika · 28 May 2023, 15:32 (Ref:4158336)

OK and thanks!

Now just find where I can watch, hope can find stream if no legal way available to me?

I was hoping IndyCar Live might be available in Belgium but unfortunately it's not. It will have to be a streaming service.

**Adam43** · 28 May 2023, 16:16 (Ref:4158343)

I’m in ET, but not Indianapolis, so it’s available in the garden.

**Adam43** · 28 May 2023, 16:36 (Ref:4158344)

“This is our Super Bowl, this is our Wimbledon!”

No value has been added to the race by the pundits and commentary team so far.

Thanks, just getting my beverages in order, and also watching on the Cock, but streaming to TV indoors, it's too hot outside

**Adam43** · 28 May 2023, 16:43 (Ref:4158347)

Only in the 70s here.

Also have beverages. Not bud though, phew
