When Indy type racing had more drivers coming in from the short tracks, and road racing (when that was truly big in the U.S.) it brought along their fans to see how they did in Indy car, the 500 particularly.
With out a U.S. base (which means people paying attention to more than just the 500), what ever Indy car racing is called at the moment, it may not be DOA, but it is in the emergency room.
The U.S. driver is what George supposedly was going to bring back, but he then made rules that crapped on his own theory.
Nothing has really changed.
