Still looking for time and channel for Monaco. Think it's around 7am, I've found it on 5 Spanish channels but still looking for ENGLISH!
I grew up watching the 500 and remember the racers but when racing split and things changed like Turbo vs normal aspiration I started leaning towards F1 and especially Monaco because it's such a beautiful track. Now I prefer road course over oval.
If I'm right, both races overlap? I'll switch back n forth but..
Monaco > Indy
But the competition might be closer at Indy, I don't catch as much racing as I'd like.
Times MT
5:30am NBC Monaco
10:00am ABC Indy
7:30ET NBC Monaco
12:00ET ABC Indy

Guess no one woke up or is into racing, Nico Rosberg wins F1 Monaco.
2 - Sebastian Vettel
3 - Lewis Hamilton
Now it's Indy......

They showed a re-run of the Monaco GP on NBCSN at 2:30pm, which is where they normally show the Formula 1 racing every other week.

Don't care much about Formel Eins nowadays but usually check the results and read the articles from a weekly sports magazine. It's quite a feat for Nico winning third straight in his home race. Only Senna and Schumi have won the race more times.

I was in and out during Monaco and Indy, I figured Hamilton would have taken F1 but Nico pulled it off.
The Indy race I watched with a friend, been an Andretti fan since I was a kid so I wanted Marco but my second choice was the winner Pablo. It was a fight in the house because my GF hates Pablo from Nascar racing. In fact she don't like Indy drivers in NASCAR......I had to mention just because they're not rednecks don't mean you have to hate them.

Love the Indy 500, but it's pretty much the only race I watch anymore (I bailed on NASCAR about 10 years ago). Great finish this year.

Watched it on and off since I was a kid then I spent a few years watching nascar during the Winston and Bill Elliott years but all the stupid rule changes and lucky dog's it just wasn't my sport. I prefer road courses so I'll catch Watkins Glen from time to time.
