This development is part of FOX's broader initiative to revolutionize IndyCar coverage, following their successful drone implementation in NASCAR and other sports. The change comes as part of Roger Penske-owned series' transition from NBC to FOX Sports.

Key broadcast enhancements include:

  • Regular drone footage at all events
  • Will Buxton as new commentary lead
  • Driver promos featuring Josef Newgarden
  • The Driver's Eye in-helmet cameras

These additions promise to deliver a more dynamic and immersive viewing experience for IndyCar fans, bringing unprecedented angles and perspectives to race coverage.
