Hi Tim, Indianapolis is not there because the weekend attendance figure for that race is not confirmed. We’ve included only confirmed weekend figures in that list. We do know that the 2000 race had 250,000 spectators on race day but figures for Friday and Saturday are not available. We’ve reached out to IMS to hopefully get some answers, then we can add it to the list!

It drew about 500K people and had around 225K on Sunday. I noticed you mentioned it in the article, but left it out of the ranking. It was much bigger than any of the crowds COTA has claimed (which were listed in the ranking).

The article has been updated since Aug 2023, but the publish date not changed. I have now changed this to reflect that it includes 2023 attendance figures

Wikipedia says they drew 250K on Sunday alone. The only GP that could have topped it over the 3 days was 1995 Adelaide. Adelaide may not have even topped it at all. As you noted, Indy beat Adelaide by about 40,000 people on race day. It’s difficult to imagine a scenario where one GP draws 160K for Sunday and 360K for the other two days, while another GP pulls 225-250K on Sunday but fewer than 300K for the other two days.
