Much like Pocono with its low banked turns, Indy requires a very good and stable setup in the turns yet fast on the exit and straights. Since all 4 turns have pretty much the same radius and banking, setup is made a little easier.

Passing points are at a premium due to the very low banking and single groove racing/turns. The best overtaking spots are typically going into turns 1 and 3, and if you get a good run coming off of turn 4 towards the tunnel you can draft off of the car in front of you early and take them and a few others on the front straight and into 1. If you pass someone going into 1 and 3 with too much speed, expect to see them going right back by on the inside when you end up pushing towards or into the wall.

Brake early and gently into 1 and 3 when not overtaking so you can have a smooth and steady line through the turns since your exit speeds from 2 and 4 are absolutely key.
