Indycar to post races on YouTube.
IndyCar have previously posted 15 min. highlight videos of the races on the YouTube channel, however they are apparently going to be posting full races from now on! Brilliant idea.

This is absolutely fantastic news! For races that clash with sports car events or my other work schedule I won't have to worry about setting the DVR or the like. I can watch the races at my own pace, when I want, where I want.
Biiiiig kudos to IndyCar. Finally some good (legal) use for YouTube!

Very good idea.
For a series that isn't what it once was, I think you need all the publicity you can get.
And showing delayed full races on something as big/widespread as YouTube - fantastic. Getting with the times.
Learn something, Bernie.

Hmm, I wonder if IndyCar is available outside of North America? If it is not available, I think some people will have no choice but to watch illegal streaming from other sources.

YouTube doesn't have region restrictions, does it?

Any idea when they'll actually upload full race highlights from Sao Paulo?
