F1 is a manufacturers competition and Indycar is a drivers competition. F1 has unequal cars by design with the cars being developed constantly and the big money payout being for the Manufacturers title. Indycars have mostly spec cars where the cars are not the stars, just the equipment for the competition. Both have their merits. I enjoy the cars in F1 and the competition between teams. The competition is between teams, then teammates. Put George Russell in a Mercedes and he would compete for wins every weekend. I enjoy Indycar because the racing is more competitive due to almost equal equipment and the cars being designed with racing in mind, like designing the aero being designed to allow close following. But if you strip out the series and just put the cars side by side, an F1 car is a technological masterpiece compared to an Indycar.

Exactly what I wanted to hear. Indycar is like Formula Two which also does not have different Constructors. For example: "Who builds the chassis for all the Indycar teams?" Dallara builds all the chassis for every Indycar team. "Okay, who builds the chassis for all the Formula Two teams?" Dallara builds all F2 chassis. I'm sorry to say it but I don't find F2 even remotely as interesting as seeing the different constructors in F1. Same with indy car. The best part of F1 is the demand for maximizing human cleverness in engineering. Although everyone has to follow the same F1 rulebook, the variations are the interesting part of individual engineers' talent and cleverness. When all the engineering is done by Dallara, the opportunity for human cleverness and differentiation among the teams - well it's missing in F2 and indy car. It's like comparing a Camaro to a Lotus Emira or a Ferrari or McLaren or Lamborghini. The Camaro is nice but pedestrian, common, very little cleverness there.

You get younger drivers who demonstrate that they have the genuine skill to defeat F1 drivers but just didn't have the money growing up to get into any Formula series, you get salty old stock car guys discovering that they have a knack for open-wheeled racing, and you have international drivers kicking around for a season just to try it out only to stay and become a regular.

It is also basically a championship series for North America. It's not a worldwide championship. Good drivers coming from F1 (like Mansell, Montoya, Sato, Alonso, Grosjean) immediately make an impact when they arrive at IndyCar. I can watch action packed wheel to wheel racing at the local go-cart track, but it just can't measure up to F1.

It's a spec series so that the drivers make the biggest difference, not the cars. Indycars are not easy to drive. Watch on boards and you'll see the amount of steering corrections happening over the course of a lap. The cars are a handful and the drivers have to fight with the car constantly. In terms of "good F1 drivers coming over to indycar making an impact", Mansell was a great F1 driver, not a good one. Montoya is one of the best drivers ever and won in pretty much anything he competed in, Sato has 6 wins in 10 years, and Grosjean has completed only 3 races. Indycar is without a doubt one of the top racing series to compete in and has a ton of young talented drivers from all over the globe.

@@victormcdirt9853 You'd doubt wrong then. The Power Unit in an F1car...costs what an entire IndyCar team costs for a season. About $4.5 million USD The chassis of an F1 car costs about 1.4 Million USD The gearbox costs about a million. JUST the front wing on an F1 car costs about 200K. I am not even kidding. It costs about 150k GBP, which is about 210K USD. A set of brakes will cost you the same. Even the floor, the undertray of an F1 car, costs about 80k USD. Hell, even the data box and the telemetry programme inside, costs about 95k USD. For something about the size of a mobile phone. If you total everything up, all the components from rear wing to front, everything between, the car costs..... about $9,000,000.00 USD plus loose parts, so round up to 12mil. That's ONE CAR. You have to run TWO for the season. It is MAGNITUDES more expensive than Indy JUST to make ONE car. But it is also R&D and overall operational costs. Because you have two cars. Just two cars. Which also means you have to have enough parts for two, what's the point of just two complete cars, which might be very incomplete after lap one of the next race? Most parts you have make yourself, so you also need tooling sophisticated enough to make those insanely expensive, precision engineered parts, and you have also have some place big enough to keep it all, which you could always rent, not buy, but still going to cost you a pretty penny, especially for all the services and utilities connected to it. We have not even hired, or paid anyone yet either. So we're not done, R&D and simply Wages/Salaries still gotta be accounted for too. Including Driver salaries. So, we have spent about $25,000,000.00 on two cars, about the same on parts... we need at least three spare engines per car, that's double the money there, but let's say we somehow put parts in their too, making those parts is not similar, the parts are engineered with tolerances well above any other racing series. They are fine tuned to the point F1 engineers consider any part which lasts longer the minimum number of laps it needs to, be replaced without penalty, as over engineered. So guess what? The machines, and computers, and software used to make those parts, and work those materials to those levels, are really REALLY expensive too. Add about the same for that. So we're at 75,000,000 million, that's without wages or salaries, and without transport around the world for each race, and not counting all additionals like marketing, and for example, a big one, INSURANCE, plus of course like millions a year to your lawyers and accountants, just to keep everything tidy, lest something get away one you and cost you millions. But the time you are done, you're spending about $50,000,000.00 USD JUST on TWO CARS, if you include all the spare engines and parts. Add all the rest? A light budget is about $150,000,000.00 USD for an F1 team, and can go right up to about $350,000,000.00, or slightly more, but who is counting at this point? So yeah, the cars truly are MAGNITUDES more expensive... and they just about a quarter of the costs of your team.
@ryanware75773 жыл бұрын
@@victormcdirt9853 Well, RND is definitely part of the price difference, but that's definitely not the only difference. It costs way more to manufacture parts for 2 cars all with unique tooling than it does for 33 cars for a spec series where RND isn't allowed. Saying the materials for the cars would be about the same misses the point completely. If you're an F1 team, RND is part of the budget and why it's minimally $50M/car/season.

It is, but don't for a second think it makes the Indy cars slow. I've seen them in person, both at road courses and ovals, and they are quite impressive to watch. Modern F1 cars are just incredibly, RIDICULOUSLY fast. People need to appreciate this era right now, because it may be a long time before we hit these speeds again. I know there's complaints about the dirty air and Mercedes dominance, but we should all take a moment to realize how insanely quick today's F1 cars are. I really think we'll look back with nostalgia at 2019-2021 in a similar way to how people look back at the V10 era. Also worth pointing out, in a couple years that pace difference between F1 and IndyCar will shrink. F1 cars are getting heavier next year, in addition to having larger, heavier wheels, and they're losing some downforce. IndyCar is coming out with a new engine in 2023 that is expected to have ~100 hp more, in addition to a hybrid component. So expect 850-900 hp, but they're leaving Chevy and Honda some room for continued development, and they expect to make up to 1000 hp after a few years. Exciting times ahead!

One correction tho - IndyCar's regs DO allow unlimited development of one thing, and that's the shock packages. Due to open shock development and the insane variety of courses and surfaces on the schedule, it isn't too much of a stretch to say IndyCar has some of the most advanced suspension systems in the world right now. F1 and IndyCar are probably the last two elite-level series in the world worth watching right now. Anyone who is a fan of one will probably like the other.

But going to the Imola is also amazing (Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari). Do the tour of the track, it's worth the cost.

SF is the fastest, then F2, then Ic, then F3, then IL, then FE, then R2I F2000 and finally F4 iirc. For Formula cars.

@TRB454 For Indy it makes sense, but F2 vs SF? There was a time that they were both feeder series for F1. And Red Bull still sends drivers over there.

I’m a big fan of both series’. Both are fast, look cool and have super talented drivers behind the wheel.

I think he was referring to the Indycar drivers and some F1 drivers. Half the F1 field sucks lol

Indycar already had a Russian paid drive, who was worth more in money than driving... Mikhail Aleshin ran well, sometimes, and ran into sponsor and visa issues othertimes...

Exceptionally well done. I didn’t hear an announce of bias and I learned a lot. I’m an F1 fan but I’m going to check out Indy (but non-oval track).

Well worth your time as another life long F1 fan. I'd encourage you to give the Indy 500 a try though! The street circuits and tracks are so cool though.

There's already a video that's 4 parts long on youtube. Very detailed information about the split

I loved the indycars from before the split, have never really followed them since

One brand team at F1 literally spends as much as whole indyCar teams. They are the ones pushing the limit of tech. And sometimes that tech trickles down to mainstream cars.

This is an excellent video. Graphics are awesome and I learned a great deal. Although I have always been a Nascar fan since Junior Johnson was driving, I have followed Indy and F1 since AJ was a rookie and Moss was still behind the wheel. I could see Nascar in my backyard at it's beginning, but I had to wait for the other 2 to start being televised. I have attended many dozens of Nascar races, but only one Indy 500 ( it was worth the trip). I have yet to attend an F1 event, but I would love to. I drove in a small race once, Ten cars entered for ten laps on a third mile dirt track in SC. I finished third.
