After a turbulent year, where does IndyCar stand today?

In this clip from Cars & Culture, IndyCar and Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles gives a candid “state of the series” update — from manufacturer uncertainty to renewed momentum.

Doug discusses:
- The moment Honda nearly walked away
- Why securing Honda and Chevy through 2030 changed everything
- How Fox’s investment reshaped IndyCar’s marketing trajectory
- Why culture inside the paddock matters more than ever
- The real value of landing a third engine manufacturer
- And why growth must be strategic — not reactive

“We’re better set up to grow this sport than we’ve ever been.”

This is a rare inside look at the business strategy behind one of motorsport’s most iconic series.
