  1. I’m not sure why it would be difficult. The teams are together. The track is IndyCar and with no sports on TV NBC would love live events whenever they take place. Attendance might be lower but that’s still better than 0. It seems like out of all of the major events such as Super Bowl, Final Four. The Indy 500 would be the easiest to change. And if they did a Indy 500/400 weekend. Might have a great crowd.

    1. Not enough garage space, different sponsor/advertising packages, not enough practice time for two races on same week end.
