Clearly it did in 2016 and 2017. Apples with apples.
Who is comparing any Indycar event crowd to Indy?
In regards to the tire testing - Firestone had one test only. Common consensus is have more testing and develop a new compound and get back racing.
Out of interest - which one of these races were wreckfests or snoozes?

That's capacity NOT attendance, there's no backtracking. Texas has never had 181k at the track for openwheel. And PIR used to be packed at 50k. far cry from 20k at a 180k track.
