	Indianapolis 500 Summary
		In fact, it wouldn't be until the Indianapolis 500 was removed from the calendar that entries with a European background made their return, with Australian Jack Brabham driving his slightly modified F1 Cooper in the 1961 race.
		However, the Indianapolis 500 sided with USAC for the next several years and became the only high-level race the body still sanctioned once its own Championship series was discontinued the next year, and the race was temporarily removed from the championship calendar, although the same cars and drivers were in attendance.
		The U.S. 500 never generated much in the way of fan interest or television ratings associated with a "big-time" race; it was moved from being directly opposite the Indianapolis 500 to July, and then discontinued altogether.
