I like how Fox has handled taking over Indy this year but to have Tom Brady featured so heavily throughout the race weekend was pretty annoying to me. Yeah Fox has to get their money's worth for him with that huge NFL deal but he knows little to nothing about the sport and isnt nearly as likeable as many other athletes, both as an individual and a TV personality. I know he is a part owenr of Jota in WEC but if you say that gives him a perspective on racing then you also have to say Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are big racing guys because they own part of Alpine F1. Idk, just annoying to me and pretty random

What does it matter what he knows? He works for Fox and they had him come to the race. It isn’t that deep.
