Bryson DeChambeau pintpoints area Indy 500 drivers | Golf News

DeChambeau believes IndyAutomobile stars may do more to promote themselves and the game. He advised The Athletic: “One, people see the authentic side of me. That’s really important. Two, it’s a great way to connect with people. Three, I think there is a movement happening in the media space where things are starting to move that direction.

“I do believe drivers have an opportunity to showcase the skill sets they have on the track a little bit more freely. Hopefully, they can do that. That’s a way to get people more involved in the action and what goes on behind the scenes a little bit, but also just being themselves and creating cool content.

“I think people misinterpret ‘behind the scenes’ to [mean] ‘cool, entertaining, fun content.’ There’s a difference between the two of them. The behind-the-scenes stuff is awesome, and there’s a place for it.

“But for content creation, for drivers, that’s going to be the future: How do they create content with their cars and become a character and figurehead?

“That’s a direction that hasn’t necessarily been explored. Maybe some are doing it, but it’s going to get better and better over time. That’s what I’ve done in my field.”

DeChambeau was in Indy to promote LIV’s Individual Championship finale occasion, which is able to happen at close by Chatham Hills in August. The reigning U.S. Open champion skilled a lap around the two.5-mile circuit in a two-seat IndyAutomobile.

Prema Racing’s Robert Schwartzman certified on pole place for Sunday’s race. The Russian-Israeli driver is joined on the entrance row by Takuma Sato and Pato Oward.

NASCAR Cup Series star Kyle Larson certified in nineteenth place as he makes an attempt to full “The Double.” The 32-year-old certified in second for the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway behind Chase Briscoe, and the Hendrick Motorsports star will jet to North Carolina as soon as his race is finished in Indy.
