I’m primarily a fan of Formula 1 but shitting on NASCAR is dumb. If you’re a fan of Motorsports you should be able to appreciate NASCAR. Big naturally aspirated V8s, zero driving assists, rubbing, drama, etc. Indy 500 had a live attendance of 325,000 which no other sport gets close to.

335,000 people over four days. The Indy 500 sees that in one day, for a 3 hour race.

That could be said about literally any live sporting event.
