In today's modern society, would people be tempted to go to any event if it wasn't broadcasted?
Would people flock to the Indy 500 today if it HADN'T been televised say, at least the last 10 years? (And that's for free!)
Would the same be applied to other events like high school sports that has a huge streaming fan base?
Streaming is the best thing that has come along to auto racing in a long time in terms of exposure the broadest possible audience (and record keeping of events).
I imagine a day where the streaming becomes more interactive between the drivers, announcers and the fans at home. Imagine being able to send a tip to your favorite driver or donate to a helmet pass live on air all while at home or on your phone.
The surface has only just been scratched for the potential...
