I wouldn't necessarily say Indy Car is trying to emulate F1. Real Indy Car fans want more ovals. But think about it - What ovals haven't been tried? Phoenix, Kansas, Joliet, Kentucky, Pocono, Atlanta, Charlotte, Richmond, Nashville Superspeedway, Fontana? Which of those tracks had great attendance? NONE, or the promoters would still be having Indy Car races at them. Seen the attendance at Texas the last few years? Seems to get lower every year. We're lucky that St. Louis has firm dates, and that Roger used his power to get Iowa back open. Until fans support any new ovals, get used to the road and street courses.
