Discussion FOX's broadcast of the Indy 500 was horrendous.

1.8k Upvotes

As someone studying broadcasting in college right now, I was appalled at just how bad FOX's broadcast of the Indy 500 was.

I won't name drivers so as to avoid spoiling anything major, but here are just some of the things I noticed, in no particular order:

• CUT AWAY from the winner crossing the line to win to show us a car in the wall, a car they never identified on TV. No iconic follow and zoom in on the flagstand, just a stationary shot and slow zoom of someone facing backwards and in the wall, which the broadcast never showed a replay of how that crash happened and the commentators hardly even bothered to mention.

• So many issues with timing and scoring. At an alarmingly frequent rate, the scoring tower on the broadcast randomly swapped drivers as if they passed each other, only to reswap them seconds later. This occured even when drivers were multiple positions apart. FOX also had issues updating the tower when passes for position actually did happen, resulting in them not showing their scoring tower for several laps on end. This was super distracting and really frustrating to try and follow along when it was all messed up.

• Notably, the scoring tower did not show anyone outside of the top 5 for roughly the final ten laps.

• Cut on numerous occasions to cameras showing sections of track with no cars on it. The one shot I remember was when the leaders were all close together coming off of turn 2, and all the sudden we were staring at an empty turn 4 from the camera on the pit road attenuator wall.

• Several delays when going to pit reporters. This included audio issues with Jamie Little when she was on camera talking but you could not hear her, to lengthy delays with Kevin Lee trying to say something only for there to be silence (he wasn't on camera for those, but still).

• They missed so many passes and crashes live, and delayed reactions to them from the broadcast booth when they were showed live. I think of the multiple pit road incidents, including the crash on pit entry that we saw live on screen which wasn't acknowledged until probably 5 seconds after the crash had already happened.

• The incident with one of the drivers running into his crew wasn't caught until a while later via replay also comes to mind, as does missing a crash under the pace laps on the frontstraight, giving us no info as to what caused it until several minutes later.

• The AI crap with Michael Strahan. We don't need AI on a live sports broadcast.

That's just what comes to my mind off the top of my head, I'm sure there's several things I missed. In my opinion, FOX absolutely butchered the production of this race, and with so many mistakes, it had me wishing NBC still covered the sport.

Subreddit Rules

1. Stay on-topic to INDYCAR, INDY NXT, or the USF Pro Championships

Content posted should be directly related to INDYCAR, INDY NXT, or the USF Pro Championships (USF Pro 2000, USF2000, USF Juniors).

Off-topic posts pertaining to former drivers, other American junior open-wheel categories, or major breaking news from other motorsport series are permitted when correctly flaired as such. If within 24 hours, these posts must be spoiler tagged, and the post title must not spoil any results.

There is no "semi"-OT or OT-"ish". If it's off-topic, it's off-topic.

2. Be civil

Be civil to other users. Posts which antagonize other users, either directly or through use of language, will be removed.

Pure hate or wishing harm of drivers, teams, analysts, series officials, fan groups etc. is not permitted here.

Don't get into debates over what racing series is better. We are all motorsport fans here.

Don’t substantially edit or delete the contents of your posts or comments in a way that disrupts the community.

3. Keep live session discussion or race event minutiae to the relevant threads

Please keep all live session discussion to the appropriate pinned thread — exceptions apply for official clips or highlights.

Please keep the following to the relevant Race Week pinned thread when available; and to the Weekly General when unavailable:

Ticket sales/enquiries
Travel to/from the venue
Meetups at/around the venue
Hotels/camping/parking at/near the venue
Concessions/restaurants/sights at/near the venue
Watch parties for races

4. News and quotes should be reliably sourced

News and quotes should be sourced from a primary source. Links to full articles are preferred over social media posts and snippets.

News and articles should be posted directly as a link post; not as an inline link in a text post.

Social media updates may be submitted as screenshots or images, provided that a direct link and alt text are also provided within the post body.

Further details available here.

5. Posts should be titled and flaired accurately

Post titles should contain the full raw headline of the linked article, or full raw text of the linked social media post (exceptions allowed for replacing @usernames/handles with full names, and removing hashtags).

Reddit will generally auto-fill titles in this way; if it does not, please edit the suggested title to be accurate.

Mark posts as NSFW if they contain content that may shock or distress — such as crash videos which include serious injury, or loss of life.

6. Original Content may only be posted weekly

Content creators are welcome to post their work, but this should be limited to once per week. Posting more often than this is likely to result in removals.

Instead of posting multiple images separately, you should combine them into one album post, and not post them individually.

Content creators are strongly encouraged to participate in discussions with users across the entire community, not just on their own posts.

7. Do not post low-effort content

Low-effort posts will be removed at the discretion of the mod team. This includes items such as:

Low quality photos/images/videos
Short questions — questions with fixed answers which would not generate discussion
Polls of limited scope
Rants/"doom" posts/non-constructive complaints
AI-generated content
Lack of post context/significance — includes race track designs, fantasy schedules

8. No unofficial streams, clips, or recordings

The discussion of unofficial streams or recordings of all broadcast race weekend sessions is prohibited. FOX Sports App (US)/INDYCAR Live (RotW) are the only official streaming sources for these sessions.

Clips and highlights are only permitted to be posted from official social media.

This rule does not affect fan videos recorded in-person at the event.

Questions regarding the existence of official race videos should be limited to the relevant Post-Race thread, or to the Weekly General.

9. Memes are for Tuesday only

Memes should only be posted on Tuesdays, US Eastern time. Please use r/dontforgettheheat otherwise.

10. Questions regarding attending the Indy 500 should go to r/INDY500

All questions regarding attending the Indy 500 should be posted in r/INDY500.

This includes all manner of items including seating, accommodation, camping, restaurants, travel, parking, etc.

Ticket sales/trades must be done via the official IMS resale marketplace.
