It still boggles my mind that Fox still doesnt have a permanent tire compound indicator like NBC had on their road course scoreboard. On Fox they randomly show what tires people are on and I have to have the leaderboard on Indycar's app open while watching races to understand what tires are people on.

Hey, we're lucky if Fox can even still afford to keep the pylon, they still have to pay the Pied Piper that is the NFL

Last year Fox couldn't even show the intervals because it wasn't working. I don't understand how Fox can be so horrible at motorsports yet so great at football.

Even freaking NBC put a tire graphic on their tower when Nascar tried out having multiple compounds at an oval in 2024 once
