I noticed that the early hours of qualifying on Saturday and Sunday are on WATCH ESPN. I Googled and found that this is internet coverage. Doesn't seem like a very good way to expand the fan base. The coverage later in the day is on ABC TV, as in the past. Noticed also that Sunday is being called Pole Day. Another change! I called the Speedway and the person I spoke with didn't know why the TV coverage was changed. Oh, one more thing, (in my best Columbo voice) at the end of the Angie's list Grand Prix it was shown on the screen, and announced, that ABC would be covering the Indy 500 live on May 25th. Hope they check their calendars; won't be many cars on the track on the 25th!
