Why has IndyCar never gone global like Formula 1?
IndyCar is an American open-wheel racing series, founded in 1996, that has not enjoyed the same level of international success as Formula 1. There are several main reasons for this, including the fact that the IndyCar series is seen as too American-centric, with a lack of interest from international sponsors and drivers. Additionally, IndyCar's focus on ovals has made it less attractive to fans in Europe, who tend to prefer street circuits and road courses. Finally, the smaller size of the series means that it has less money to spend on marketing and promotion, making it harder to establish a presence in international markets.
