June 19, 2005. Formula 1 is hosting its U.S. Grand Prix at the famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway. For years, F1 has desperately tried to establish a foothold in America, and heading into this race, there’s real momentum — until there’s a major problem.


Today, F1’s nightmare at the U.S. Grand Prix. More than a 100,000 spectators show up to a race that becomes a disaster. How do things go so wrong? And how will this race affect F1’s future in America?


Special thanks to our guests: Herbie Blash, former deputy race director of the FIA; Tony Dodgins, F1 journalist; John Howett, former president of Toyota Motorsport Germany; and Joe Saward, F1 journalist.
