Slipstreaming is a technique used in MotoGP racing where the rider uses the draft created by the rider in front of them to reduce air resistance, thereby increasing speed. This technique is especially effective during overtaking maneuvers as the rider behind is able to take advantage of the slipstream to reduce the amount of energy needed to overtake. Slipstreaming can also be used to reduce drag around corners as the rider behind can get a 'tow' from the rider in front, allowing them to corner faster. The rider in front is also able to benefit from slipstreaming as they can use the 'tow' from the rider behind to reach higher speeds. Ultimately, slipstreaming is a technique used to gain an advantage over other riders, allowing them to overtake and corner faster.

The top recorded speed in IndyCar racing is a scorching 242.333 mph, achieved by Gil de Ferran in 2000.

It's fascinating to see the speeds these machines and their drivers can reach, it truly showcases the blend of human skill and engineering excellence. Comparing the two, IndyCar holds the current record, but both motorsports push the boundaries of speed and technology. It will be interesting to see if these records will be shattered in the future.
