ON TODAYS PROGRAM…   LE CLERC MUST DO SOMETHING IN AUSTRIA OR HE WILL BE NUMBER TWO!! MCLAREN SAYS BEING A MERCEDES CUSTOMER TEAM IS A DISADVANTAGE! FORMULA ONE RULES KEEP ON EVOLVING! GASLY'S MONACO PODIUM REINSTATEMENT WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO AND… FERNANDO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAKAR RALLY AND RACING AT LE MANS WITH MAX VERSTAPPEN!!!…   THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE HAVE: A MOMENT IN MOTORSPORTS HISTORY…AN INTERVIEW WITH F1 PHOTOGRAPHER PETER NYGARD AND MORE TRIVIA!!! When the rear wing has to go in your carry-on – a look into the different worlds of logistics at Audi How the logistics division of AUDI AG and the Formula 1 project benefit from each other Dieter Braun, Head of Audi Supply Chain, in discussion with his F1 colleagues Björn Brickwedde and Lars Rolack Logistics as a performance factor in motorsport and a driving force in road car production   More than 20 race weekends, global supply chains, tight time windows, geopolitical tensions, and the constant pressure to get every part to the right place on time: Formula 1 is not only a high-performance technological laboratory but also an extreme test for logistics. Many of the challenges faced by Audi Revolut F1 Team on the racetrack are also familiar to Audi Supply Chain – just on a different scale. A discussion between the logistics experts reveals what both worlds can learn from each other.   Dieter Braun, Head of Audi Supply Chain, sums it up: “If there's one thing we need in the company, it's speed. Not just on the racetrack, but when making decisions.” This is exactly where the key leverage lies: Formula 1 demonstrates what quick decisions, clear responsibilities, and precise preparation can achieve. Logistics as a performance factor In Formula 1, logistics directly determines on-track performance. Anything that isn't at the track on time can't be used. If transportation costs are too high, there's less left in the budget for other areas. Björn Brickwedde, Head of Logistics at Audi Revolut F1 Team in Hinwil, Switzerland, explains: “Any savings we make in logistics can be invested in development and parts.” This is especially true under Formula 1's cost cap. Efficient logistics thus becomes a performance factor. Brickwedde cites specific examples: intelligent strategies for return shipments, minimal spare parts inventory, smart route planning, and determining the most cost-effective location from which to ship update parts or components. “Every expense saved can flow into development – and then into lap times.” Audi Supply Chain, in turn, designs and manages the entire customer order process – from ordering an Audi to delivery to the customer. This complex system involves several thousand suppliers in nearly 60 countries to manage the flow of goods comprising around one million parts per day. Every optimization in this cross-divisional core process creates leeway – whether in terms of costs, capital tied up, or the CO2 footprint. “In our role as conductors, we can contribute hundreds of millions in earnings for the company,” says Braun. One example illustrates the scope: Audi Supply Chain doesn't just orchestrate – it also manages crises and, with experienced employees working as a team, overcomes short-term challenges. Braun describes a situation involving the production of the last Audi Q2 cars. A container with displays that could not be reproduced was on its way from China via Dubai to Germany when war broke out in the Middle East. “The shipping company spontaneously decided to call at a port in India and unload all the containers without consulting us,” says Braun. The goods couldn't be obtained in time via India, so Audi organized a detour via Sri Lanka and Turkey. “The parts arrived half a day before they were needed,” says Braun, “otherwise we wouldn't have been able to finish and deliver 2,000 Q2 cars.” Brickwedde's account of the Formula 1 season opener in Melbourne sounds very similar. “A supplementary shipment for the first race was supposed to fly from Zurich to Dubai – that's exactly when restrictions on global air traffic took effect,” he says, referring to canceled transport routes. Important update parts were held up, just like the freight from other teams. “We organized an alternative route with F1 Cargo and DHL and prepared new customs documents. It was a nerve-wracking ordeal for everyone involved – but the parts arrived in Melbourne on Wednesday evening, and thanks to the great teamwork on site, both cars were fully assembled in time for the first session.” In doing so, the logistics team laid the groundwork for Audi Revolut F1 Team to score its first points right off the bat in its debut in the premier class of motorsport. Speed is also a key factor in the Audi Supply Chain The racing series brings into sharp focus what often remains abstract in mass production: the impact of quick decisions. “In a race, you immediately realize when you've made a wrong strategic decision – for example, when you leave the pit lane too late,” says Braun. “From a business perspective at Audi, the impact of a decision often only becomes apparent later, but it can be just as serious. Deciding too late during a crisis is problematic – but so is doing so during planning, for example with long-term investments, which makes it particularly challenging for my team and the relevant departments.” The Formula 1 involvement provides a tangible narrative for this. Braun uses the Audi R26 as a permanent background image for his meetings – not just out of enthusiasm for motorsport, but as a signal to the organization: speed matters in the supply chain, too. Formula 1 shows that a good solution at the right time is more valuable than a perfect solution that comes too late. When the rear wing has to go in your carry-on The most exciting examples emerge where planning and improvisation meet. Brickwedde talks about the limited availability of parts during race operations: “We manage the production of parts very efficiently. This is partly because of the cost cap, but also because we only take to the racetrack what we genuinely believe we'll need. If something unexpected happens, you've got to think on your feet. This means that a team member might have to carry the necessary components in their luggage so that they're available at the track as quickly as possible. In a pinch, these could even be parts of a rear wing.” Time windows are tight on the power unit side as well. Lars Rolack, Head of Logistics at Audi Formula Racing in Neuburg an der Donau, describes the unscheduled return shipment of a high-voltage battery during the race weekend in Miami: hazardous materials, special customs and transport regulations, a short analysis window in Neuburg – and shipment back out to the next race just a few days later. “The battery arrived at our facility in Neuburg on Monday morning and was shipped out again on Wednesday evening, heading for Montreal.” Even though the processes at Audi Supply Chain are generally more predictable, the combination of foresight and flexibility remains a crucial success factor – for instance, in the face of supply bottlenecks, natural disasters, or geopolitical disruptions, which have almost become the new normal these days. Rolack used to work in the logistics division at AUDI AG himself before moving to the Formula 1 project. “My background in planning and my experience helped me, but race logistics is a very ad-hoc business – we all had to adapt our mindset extremely quickly to the pace.” While Audi's supply chain division manages several thousand different suppliers across the globe using a multitude of processes – now also with the help of complex mathematical algorithms – organizational skills and personal networks are what count in the F1 project. “If something gets stuck here, my first instinct is to pick up the phone. Thanks to lean processes and short lines of communication within the team, problems can be solved very quickly,” says Rolack. Lundgaard Charges From Last to First To Win at Road America ELKHART LAKE, Wis. (Sunday, June 21, 2026) – Christian Lundgaard asked his Arrow McLaren team over the radio what everyone else also wondered after the Dane took the checkered flag Sunday for the XPEL Grand Prix at Road America Presented by AMR. “How did we do that?” Lundgaard asked incredulously to his pit box. SEE: Race Results Lundgaard used strategy, speed and a bit of good fortune to climb from last in the 25-car field after contact on Lap 1 to earn his second victory of the season in the No. 7 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet. The race ended under caution when Graham Rahal spun into the gravel trap outside Canada Corner after contact with Will Power while dueling for third place on a one-lap restart to the checkered flag. The victory was the third of Lundgaard's NTT INDYCAR SERIES career, joining his win in May on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course with Arrow McLaren and in 2023 on the streets of Toronto with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. “I knew we had a chance,” Lundgaard said of the probability of winning after the early contact. “I knew how this race panned out last year, and I knew it was all about just sticking in the race. I did that last year. I made a bunch of mistakes last year that spun ourselves around last year, and I just wanted to make up for that. “We've been on the struggle bus all weekend, so to turn this around, I have to thank the team for that.” David Malukas finished second in the No. 12 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet, his third runner-up finish of the season as he seeks his first career victory. Power held on to finish third in the No. 26 TWG AI Honda, matching his best finish of his first season with Andretti Global. Kyffin Simpson finished a season-best fourth in the No. 8 Sunoco Chip Ganassi Racing Honda, with points leader and four-time series champion Alex Palou rounding out the top five in the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda. Lundgaard, who started 12th, took the lead for the second and final time on Lap 52 of the 55-lap race when the No. 66 Meyer Shank Racing w/Curb Agajanian Honda of leader Marcus Armstrong slowed with a mechanical problem. Armstrong led by 2.787 seconds with five laps to go before mechanical fate cruelly robbed him of what may have been his first career victory. Armstrong's stricken machine finally lost power in Turn 5 on Lap 53, triggering a caution period and a one-lap race to the checkered flag. Lundgaard never was challenged by Malukas on the final one-lap trip around the 14-turn, 4.014-mile road course, with most of the attention focused on the fierce duel for third between series veterans Power and Rahal. Power, holding a straight-line speed advantage, attempted to move to the outside of Rahal at the end of the back straightaway, with both cars making contact and Rahal's No. 15 MSC Industrial Supply Honda spinning into the gravel, ending the race. That was the climax to a thrilling race filled with varying tire strategies and fierce competition for nearly every position. But nothing was more exciting or improbable than Lundgaard's charge to the front. On the opening lap, Lundgaard made contact with Scott Dixon in Turn 1, damaging the left front wing on Lundgaard's car and deflating one of his Firestone Firehawk tires. He pulled into the pits on Lap 2 for tires, fuel and a new front wing, with Arrow McLaren strategists devising new tactics on the fly. Lundgaard cycled to the lead for the first time on Lap 43 when Armstrong, Malukas and Rahal made their final pit stops from the top three positions. Danish driver Lundgaard led Rosenqvist by 11.720 seconds on Lap 45 when he made his final pit stop, with the Arrow McLaren team refilling his fuel and fastening four Firestone Firehawk alternate tires in a speedy 7.1 seconds. The big cushion before the stop allowed Lundgaard to exit his final stop second behind Armstrong and just ahead of Malukas, who had hotter, stickier rubber on his wheels and passed Lundgaard for second on Lap 46. Josef Newgarden made his final stop from the lead on Lap 49 in the No. 2 PPG Team Penske Chevrolet, handing the lead back to Armstrong, who was 3.671 seconds ahead of Malukas. Meanwhile, Lundgaard passed Malukas for second on Lap 49, with Armstrong nearly three seconds up the road. Then Armstrong's bid for his first win evaporated as his power dwindled, letting Lundgaard pass for the lead on Lap 52. “It was all smooth sailing,” a deflated Armstrong said. “I came out of Turn 6, and the engine just started sputtering like it was out of fuel. But clearly it wasn't. And then it just completely died. There was no indication there was nothing wrong.” Pole sitter Palou led 13 laps, but his chances for a fourth career Road America victory vanished when he was penalized for speeding in the pits on Lap 29. Palou fell to 22nd after his drive-through penalty on one of the longest pit roads in the series, but he was appointment viewing in his charge toward the front over the closing 25 laps. Palou leads second-place Malukas by 60 points and third-place Kyle Kirkwood, who finished 10th, by 61 points in the standings. Lundgaard is fourth, 77 points behind Palou. The next NTT INDYCAR SERIES event is The Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio Presented by the 2027 CR-V Hybrid on Sunday, July 5 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course near Columbus, Ohio.

Alex Palou volvió a ganar en la IndyCar, pero esta vez no fue una victoria de trámite ni una de esas carreras que se explican únicamente por su superioridad habitual. Después de lo ocurrido con una mala estrategia en Indianápolis, esto nos demuestra que no ha perdido su “toque”. Y quedará analizado perfectamente en el segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1. Una carrera difícil y exigente. El piloto catalán se impuso en el Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix después de una prueba exigente, marcada por las estrategias de neumáticos, las banderas amarillas y la presión final de Kyle Kirkwood. Fue su cuarta victoria en ocho carreras esta temporada y una nueva confirmación de que su dominio no depende solo de la velocidad, sino también de la gestión. Palou partía desde la pole con el Honda número 10 de Chip Ganassi Racing y acabó cruzando la meta con 3,0584 segundos de ventaja sobre Kirkwood, de Andretti Global. Graham Rahal completó el podio, mientras que Pato O’Ward y Christian Lundgaard terminaron cuarto y quinto para Arrow McLaren. El resultado amplía la ventaja de Palou en el campeonato hasta los 62 puntos, más de una carrera de margen sobre su principal perseguidor. Las cifras empiezan a ser difíciles de colocar en perspectiva. Palou suma ya 23 victorias en 106 salidas en la categoría, con una tasa de acierto superior al 21%. Desde el inicio de la temporada 2025 ha ganado 12 de las últimas 25 carreras. Y, sin embargo, Detroit recordó que incluso en pleno dominio hay carreras que se ganan desde la resistencia, no desde la comodidad. El trazado urbano de Detroit, estrecho y propenso al caos, obligó a todos los equipos a navegar entre estrategias distintas y continuas interrupciones. Palou lideró 71 de las 100 vueltas, pero perdió posiciones en la primera parte de la prueba y tuvo que reconstruir la carrera desde la estrategia. La decisión clave llegó en la vuelta 63, cuando su equipo apostó por adelantar la última parada para montar neumáticos prime, más duraderos que los alternativos. La lectura de carrera de Chip Ganassi fue decisiva. Barry Wanser, estratega de Palou, evitó que el español quedara atrapado en pista ante una posible bandera amarilla. Apenas unas vueltas después, el incidente entre Santino Ferrucci y Rinus VeeKay confirmó que la llamada había sido correcta. Kirkwood, que todavía debía parar, tuvo que hacerlo bajo neutralización y quedó obligado a utilizar neumáticos alternativos en el último tramo. Ese detalle abrió el gran duelo final. Kirkwood salió con más agarre inicial y se lanzó a por Palou en las reanudaciones. El piloto de Andretti llegó a acercarse lo suficiente como para amenazar el liderato, pero las sucesivas banderas amarillas cortaron su impulso y le obligaron a gastar el mejor momento de sus neumáticos sin poder culminar el ataque. Cuando la carrera volvió a estabilizarse, la mayor consistencia de los primarios de Palou empezó a imponerse. El catalán tuvo que gestionar varias reanudaciones delicadas, especialmente en las vueltas 72, 76, 83 y 93. También sobrevivió a un momento complicado en la vuelta 88, cuando bloqueó las ruedas bajo la presión de Kirkwood. Pero, como tantas otras veces, recompuso la situación sin perder el control de la carrera. En la última relanzada volvió a abrir hueco y ya no concedió otra oportunidad. Lectura interesante sobre el propio circuito. Detroit ofreció 173 adelantamientos en pista, una cifra récord para un urbano esta temporada, pero también una sucesión constante de incidentes, neutralizaciones y situaciones límite. Frente al recuerdo de Belle Isle, el trazado actual mantiene una identidad más agresiva y menos fluida, con un espectáculo que a veces nace tanto de la estrategia como del desorden. Para Palou, sin embargo, el contexto cambia poco. Gane desde la pole, desde la gestión o desde la supervivencia, el resultado tiende a repetirse. Su temporada avanza con una regularidad impropia de una categoría tan imprevisible como la IndyCar. Y lo más llamativo es que sus victorias no parecen responder siempre al mismo patrón: unas llegan por ritmo, otras por estrategia, otras por lectura de carrera y otras, como Detroit, por una mezcla de paciencia, precisión y sangre fría. Con esta victoria, Palou sale más líder y refuerza su candidatura a igualar el récord de cuatro títulos consecutivos en la IndyCar. Lo hace, además, en un momento en el que su atención empieza a repartirse entre varios objetivos de enorme exigencia. Pero si algo dejó claro Detroit es que incluso cuando la carrera se complica, Palou encuentra la manera de convertir el caos en ventaja… la forma más contundente de dominio en un campeonato tan abierto como la IndyCar.

AND A LITTLE HISTORY ON THE MICHELIN TYRE!!  Palou Prevails Amid Chaos, Varying Tire Strategies in Detroit. DETROIT (Sunday, May 31, 2026) – Four-time NTT INDYCAR SERIES champion Alex Palou prevailed in a full-contact race filled with various tire strategies, winning the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix presented by Lear on Sunday for his fourth victory in eight races this season. Pole sitter Palou drove his No. 10 HRC Chip Ganassi Racing Honda to a 3.0584-second victory over the No. 27 Sam's Club Honda of Andretti Global's Kyle Kirkwood. It was the 23rd victory of Palou's career in 106 starts, a remarkable strike rate of 21.7 percent, and he has won 12 of the last 25 races (48 percent win rate) dating to the start of the 2025 season. SEE: Race Results “It feels like the first time, honestly” Palou said. “It was a tough one, a very tough one. But the team did an incredible job once again with the strategy. The pit stops were incredible. Incredible run, incredible start of the year, but it was tough.” The victory extended Palou's championship lead to 62 points over Kirkwood, more than a race's worth of margin. The Spaniard is aiming for an INDYCAR SERIES record-tying fourth straight title. Graham Rahal finished third in the No. 15 Fifth Third Bank Honda of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, his third podium finish of the season. Arrow McLaren teammates Pato O'Ward and Christian Lundgaard finished fourth and fifth in the No. 5 and No. 7 Chevrolet-powered cars, respectively, at General Motors' home event. Palou led 71 of the 100 laps, but this wasn't a stroll down Easy Street. He took the lead for good on Lap 69 when Kirkwood pitted from the lead for the last time and stayed out front on restarts on Laps 72, 76, 83 and 93 after full-course yellows bunched the field. The move to the front was paved a few laps earlier when strategist Barry Wanser and Palou decided to make their final pit stop at the end of Lap 63, switching from the faster but less durable Firestone Firehawk alternate tire to the primary tire. Wanser saw a variety of jousts for position unfolding on the tight, nine-turn, 1.645-mile street circuit and wisely didn't want Palou to get caught on track under caution and lose track position. Wanser's decision proved prescient on Lap 66 when Santino Ferrucci's No. 14 Homes For Our Troops Chevrolet of AJ Foyt Racing nudged the rear of Rinus VeeKay's No. 76 Juncos Hollinger Racing Chevrolet into a spin in Turn 5. Kirkwood was leading but still had to make his final stop, which he did under yellow on Lap 69 and was forced to use a set of Firestone Firehawk alternates per INDYCAR rules that require at least two sets of the softer rubber to be used in street-circuit events. Palou rocketed away from Alexander Rossi's No. 20 Java House Chevrolet of ECR on the restart on Lap 72. Rookie Mick Schumacher and David Malukas were engaged in an intense duel for third on the restart, with Schumacher missing the corner in Turn 5 and nosing into the barriers in his No. 47 ENVE Honda of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. Malukas had nowhere to go and ran wide in his No. 12 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet, with the incident triggering another full-course caution on Lap 73. By this point, Kirkwood had worked his way back to third after his final pit stop and had to make the most of the added early grip of the alternate tire before the increased durability of Palou's primary tires prevailed in the closing laps. Kirkwood passed Rossi and then set sail for Palou, knowing this was his best chance to win. Kirkwood pulled to within two car lengths of Palou on Lap 79 and appeared to be ready to pounce for the lead when Ferrucci's car slowed in Turn 4 with a mechanical problem, triggering the fifth full-course yellow of the race on Lap 80. “We took a little bit of a gamble on tires there, being the only guy on reds (alternates) at the end,” Kirkwood said. “It nearly paid off. It was so, so close. There were two untimely yellows. “We almost covered Palou when we were on primes, which would have been phenomenal, and then we had that other yellow where I had him lined up. I was ready to make a dive on him, and, of course, (the yellow) comes out after I burned 10 seconds of overtake. From there, we just didn't really have another shot at it. I think I just used up my tires too much to make that one pass.” Palou kept the lead on the restart on Lap 83, but Kirkwood continued to push and forced Palou into a flat-spotting tire lockup on Lap 88. But Palou gathered himself and his car and started to pull away, building a lead of 1.8929 seconds by Lap 91. But there was one more restart for Palou to manage after Rossi clipped the rear of the No. 18 BMax Honda driven by Romain Grosjean of Dale Coyne Racing and sent Grosjean into the outside wall approaching Turn 3 on Lap 91. That triggered the last of six full-course yellows, but Palou pulled away from Kirkwood and the field on the Lap 93 restart and was never threatened despite the 173 on-track passes today, a high for a street circuit this season.  “Being able to be up front was key,” Palou said. “On the first stint, I started struggling and kind of put myself in a bad spot and lost two positions with Lundgaard and (Scott) McLaughlin. I lost us positions there, but the team made a great call to be safe with the yellow. It kind of worked out for us.” Fittipaldi Wins Motor City Thriller, Takes Series Lead. DETROIT (Sunday, May 31, 2026) – Enzo Fittipaldi returned his famous last name to Victory Lane in Detroit for the first time in 35 years, winning the INDY NXT by Firestone Detroit Grand Prix despite driving nearly the entire distance with a damaged front wing and nose cone. Series rookie Fittipaldi won the race, originally scheduled for 45 laps but switched to a timed event, under caution in the No. 67 HMD Motorsports car after starting seventh. It was his second victory of the season and vaulted him to the championship lead in the INDYCAR development series, seven points ahead of Nikita Johnson of Cape Motorsports Powered by ECR and eight ahead of HMD teammate Tymek Kucharczyk. SEE: Race Results The victory also was the first by the legendary Fittipaldi name in Detroit since his grandfather and two-time Indy 500 winner Emerson Fittipaldi won INDYCAR SERIES races on a different downtown street circuit in the Motor City in 1989 and 1991. “I just pushed as hard as I could,” Enzo Fittipaldi said. “I found pace. I was really, really fast. Just so happy to get the win. I love to race; I'm a racer.” Series veteran Myles Rowe finished a season-best second in the No. 99 Abel Motorsports with Force Indy machine, with rookie Kucharczyk rounding out the podium finishers in the No. 71 HMD Motorsports entry. Rookie Max Garcia tied his season-best finish by placing fourth in the No. 12 Abel Motorsports machine, with veteran Seb Murray rounding out the top five in the No. 27 Megatron car of Andretti Global. Frenzied action started from the drop of the green flag on Lap 1, as Lochie Hughes made an aggressive move into the Turn 3 hairpin with his No. 26 Andretti Global car, punting pole sitter Alessandro de Tullio into a spin from the lead in the No. 14 AJ Foyt Racing entry. Hughes received a drive-through penalty for avoidable contact. Fittipaldi nudged another car in that chain-reaction melee, which damaged the right side of his front wing and punched a large hole in his nose cone. Kucharczyk took the lead from that point, keeping it on the restart on Lap 8. Kucharczyk built a lead of 3.324 seconds over Fittipaldi by Lap 13, with Rowe climbing to third by Lap 18. Rowe dove under Fittipaldi for second on Lap 20 and started to chase down Kucharczyk. By Lap 21, Rowe pulled to within .5477 of a second of leader Kucharcyzk, slicing 1.6 seconds from the Polish driver's lead in just three laps. But the complexion of the race changed on Lap 26 when the second of four full-course yellow flags in the race were unfurled for debris on the nine-turn, 1.645-mile temporary street circuit. The restart came at the end of Lap 27, with Rowe trying to dive under Kucharczyk for the lead immediately after the green flag, in the Turn 3 hairpin. But the move forced both cars wide, leaving an opening along the inside curb for Fittipaldi. He took it, squeezing past Rowe and Kucharcyzk and never trailing thereafter. Fittipaldi stayed out front on another restart on Lap 34 after Niels Koolen nosed his No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing machine into the barrier in Turn 8. “I got it done,” Fittipaldi said. “I knew Myles was going to go for a lunge there, and I just prepared my mid-(corner) to exit of Turn 3, and he went on the lunge on Tymek, and I was able to do the crossover and got the lead. I had the pace to stay there, and I was actually pulling away.” The decisive move was one of 141 on-track passes, including 124 for position, in the exciting race – both INDY NXT records for any circuit on which the series has competed in the Motor City. Fittipaldi expanded that gap to nearly six-tenths of a second when Andretti Global's Max Taylor also nosed into the barrier in Turn 1 in his No. 28 Susan G. Komen car with about four minutes, 20 seconds left in what had become a timed race, triggering the final caution. Taylor's car could not be cleared in time to restart the race, with the field finishing under yellow. “I was losing quite a lot of time through (Turns) 6 and 7,” Fittipaldi said of the damage to his car. “It was quite difficult. Down the straight, I could feel the air coming through my legs and I said: ‘Man, this is not good. We're definitely dragging a lot on the straight.' It was hard to keep that lead and keep up with the guys.”

El fin de semana dejó dos grandes protagonistas fuera de la Fórmula 1: Christian Lundgaard y BMW. Uno triunfó en el circuito rutero de Indianápolis con una maniobra memorable; el otro devolvió a la marca bávara a lo más alto de la resistencia mundial casi tres décadas después. Y en esas dos carreras se centra el segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1. El mayo de Indianápolis empieza a dar espectáculo… y sorpresas. En la IndyCar, Christian Lundgaard firmó una de las victorias más importantes de su carrera en el Sonsio Grand Prix disputado en Indianápolis. El piloto danés del equipo Arrow McLaren protagonizó el adelantamiento decisivo sobre David Malukas en una maniobra espectacular que rápidamente se convirtió en una de las imágenes del año. La acción se produjo en la zona técnica previa a la recta trasera del IMS. Lundgaard, aprovechando una mejor temperatura de neumáticos tras haber parado una vuelta antes, lanzó un ataque agresivo pero limpio que le permitió hacerse con el liderato sin contacto alguno. La maniobra resumió perfectamente el espíritu de una categoría donde el pilotaje directo sigue siendo protagonista. Mala suerte para Alex Palou. La carrera, sin embargo, también estuvo marcada por la mala fortuna de Álex Palou. El español dominó buena parte del inicio tras salir desde la pole y parecía encaminado hacia otra victoria, pero una neutralización cambió completamente el desarrollo estratégico de la prueba. La decisión de no entrar inmediatamente en boxes bajo bandera amarilla terminó condenando sus opciones. Aun así, Palou volvió a demostrar por qué lidera cómodamente el campeonato: remontó desde el fondo del grupo hasta finalizar quinto, ampliando incluso su ventaja en la clasificación general gracias a los problemas de sus principales rivales. Con las 500 Millas de Indianápolis a la vuelta de la esquina, el campeonato entra ahora en su momento más importante de la temporada. WEC: Spa da espectáculo. Mientras tanto, en Spa-Francorchamps, el Mundial de Resistencia vivió una carrera caótica, estratégica y espectacular que terminó con un resultado histórico: BMW logró su primera victoria absoluta en resistencia internacional desde Le Mans 1999. El BMW M Team WRT construyó el triunfo a través de una apuesta estratégica arriesgada y perfectamente ejecutada. El equipo aprovechó las múltiples intervenciones del coche de seguridad y una gestión impecable para convertir una salida desde la décima y undécima posición en un doblete memorable. René Rast, Sheldon van der Linde y Robin Frijns lideraron el coche ganador, mientras que el segundo BMW resistió heroicamente los ataques de Ferrari y Toyota en las últimas vueltas gracias a una defensa magistral de un viejo conocido de la F1: Kevin Magnussen. ¿Dónde estuvieron Toyota y Ferrari? Ferrari volvió a mostrarse competitivo, pero pequeños errores en boxes y problemas puntuales les alejaron de la victoria. Toyota tampoco logró encontrar el ritmo suficiente para luchar por el triunfo, mientras Aston Martin firmó su mejor resultado hasta la fecha en Hypercar con un sólido cuarto puesto. La carrera también dejó decepciones importantes para Alpine y Peugeot, ambos fuera de combate cuando parecían candidatos claros al podio. Spa volvió a demostrar por qué es uno de los grandes escenarios del automovilismo mundial: estrategia, lluvia, accidentes, luchas cuerpo a cuerpo y cambios constantes de situación. Y ahora, el horizonte ya apunta hacia Le Mans, que rematará, junto al GP de España de F1, uno de los meses más apasionantes en el MotorSport.

It was the caution (or lack there of) that was heard around the world, or at least in the world of IndyCar racing. Alexander Rossi coming to a halt on the front stretch turned the Indianapolis Grand Prix on it's side, and Christian Lundgaard was able to capitalize on the chaos to bring home his first win of the season. Conor Daly and Producer Bobby are back on Speed Street to recap the action from the race and weigh in on the full course/local yellow debacle, plus they look ahead to the week of Indianapolis 500 testing. Race winner Christian Lundgaard also joins the show to talk about what the victory meant to his team and how he and Arrow McLaren are chasing legacy this May.

They also talk about how impressive Daly looks, along with Graham Rahal turning heads. They later talk about how much Ryan Hunter-Reay is benefiting Pato O’Ward at the 500 and the Arrow McLaren team. To wrap up another edition of the show, they talk about how the one-off entries and Arrow McLaren fared into practice today.

For the first time in a couple of seasons, we're seeing Alex Palou be challenged for the IndyCar points championship. Beneath the surface of Palou's dominant 2025 campaign, a new crop of racers began to show glimpses of the year-long consistency needed to take down the monolithic Chip Ganassi Racing 10-team. One of those drivers, Christian Lundgaard, joins Speed Street this week to discuss his strong start to 2026, which currently finds him third in the standings. He and Conor Daly break down Arrow McLaren's strengths and areas for improvement, as well as look ahead to Long Beach and the Month of May. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

You know the competition in IndyCar is tough when a race win comes down to a bad pitstop. That's exactly what happened in Barber over the weekend, as the Arrow McLaren team came up short on Christian Lundgaard's final stop allowing Alex Palou to cruise to his second victory of the season. Conor Daly and Producer Bobby are back on Speed Street to break down the action of the race, and they're joined by podium finisher Graham Rahal to hear about his day and outlook on the 2026 season so far.

…ON TODAYS PROGRAM…   ASTON MARTIN ALREADY PONDERING... THE SEASON IS ALL BUT A WASH! WILL MERCEDES PASS A COMPRESSION TEST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE RACE? FERRARI MUST KICK OFF THE SEASON WITH A WIN IN MELBOURNE. AND… FERNANDO COULD BE IN F1 FOR ANOTHER FOUR YEARS! THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER…MORE VINTAGE BANTER BETWEEN THE HOST AND NASIR…THIS WEEKS SPECIAL GUEST:  ADRIAN ZAUGH AND F1W LISTENER BURAQ SARTAG FROM TURKEY! Champ Palou Opens Season with Dominant March to St. Pete Win  ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (Sunday, March 1, 2026) – Alex Palou picked up right where he left off in 2025, opening the 2026 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season with a dominant victory in the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Palou won his third consecutive and fourth overall series championship last season by a whopping 196 points, an advantage of more than three races, and he and Chip Ganassi Racing showed the same swagger on a sun-splashed Sunday in Florida. SEE: Race Results Reigning event winner Palou, from Spain, cruised to his 20th career victory in just his 99th start, driving his No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda to a 12.4948-second victory over the No. 3 DEX Team Penske Chevrolet of NTT P1 Award winner Scott McLaughlin. “This team keeps on improving, keeps on making new changes, and they just keep on raising the bar,” Palou said. “It's pretty impressive. It's a long season in front of us, but what a great way to start the season.” Christian Lundgaard, who started 12th, rallied to complete the podium finishers in the No. 7 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet. Kyle Kirkwood dropped from second late in the 100-lap race to finish fourth in the No. 27 JM Bullion/Gold.com Honda fielded by Andretti Global. Pato O'Ward put two Arrow McLaren cars into the top five after finishing fifth in the team's No. 5 Chevrolet. This was the first race in which INDYCAR rules mandated the use of at least two sets of the softer Firestone Firehawk alternate tire with red sidewalls, throwing an additional strategic element into the racing mix. And, as usual, Palou and longtime strategist Barry Wanser made all the right calls. The decisive moment of the race came on Laps 36 and 37. Team Penske called leader McLaughlin to the pits at the end of Lap 35, with Marcus Ericsson assuming the lead from second in the No. 28 Delaware Life Honda. Andretti Global summoned Ericsson to the pits at the end of Lap 36, with Palou taking the top spot. But instead of calling Palou to the pits on the next lap, Wanser and Palou decided to stay out until the end of Lap 38 on their original set of alternate tires in an “overcut” strategy. It worked. Palou blended back on the 14-turn, 1.8-mile temporary street circuit in front of McLaughlin and Ericsson. Once the rest of the leaders cycled through their pit stops, Palou found himself out front by Lap 42. He would only surrender the top spot during pit stop cycles to finish the race, leading 59 of the 100 laps. There was a bit of suspense when Palou made his final pit stop at the end of Lap 67 with a 14-second lead on McLaughlin. Palou had used the required two sets of Firestone alternate tires in his first two stints and opted for the harder, but slower, Firestone primary tires for his final run to the finish. Kirkwood and McLaughlin made their final stops at the end of Laps 65 and 68, respectively, both taking the softer but faster Firestone Firehawk alternate tires. That tire choice offered a glimpse of hope that Palou could be reeled in after he took the lead on Lap 70, but Kirkwood never got closer than 5.5 seconds in his pursuit despite the more grippy tires. Palou, who started fourth, then pulled away at an astonishing rate over the closing laps to win by the largest margin in the 23 editions of this event. “Those Firestones were like everlasting,” Palou said. “They would just keep going. I had an amazing car today.” There was drama in the final 10 laps as McLaughlin and Lundgaard both took advantage of fresher tires to pass Kirkwood for the second and third positions on Lap 94. “Our Chevy was fast, but it's just a mixed bag on what tire you start on,” McLaughlin said. “Maybe we come back here again, and maybe you start on reds (alternate) and just get them out of the way. Overall, made the passes we needed to make at the right times, and I thought we maximized our day.” Dennis Hauger, who qualified an impressive third, was the top finisher among the three rookies in the race, 10th in the No. 19 Ault Block Chain Honda of Dale Coyne Racing. ASTON MARTIN ARAMCO UNVEILS LIVERY FOR 2026 F1 ACADEMY CAR AMRTC, Silverstone, 24 February 2026: The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team has officially revealed its F1 ACADEMY car livery, which will be driven by German talent Mathilda Paatz in her debut year of the all-female series.   The sleek design features the signature Aston Martin racing green and mirrors the team's elegant AMR26 livery, proudly carrying the Aston Martin Aramco identity on the F1 ACADEMY grid. Mathilda, who represents Aston Martin Aramco as a member of its Driver Academy, drove the liveried F4-spec car operated by PREMA Racing during the first official F1 ACADEMY test, which took place at Shanghai International Circuit between 11-13 February. Mathilda Paatz, F1 ACADEMY and Aston Martin Aramco Academy Driver: “Seeing the Aston Martin Aramco livery on the car for the first time was really special - it looks incredible and instantly made me feel part of the team. Driving the car for the first time during pre-season testing in Shanghai, I learned a lot. It was something new for me to adapt to, and I'm working well with the team at PREMA to become more familiar with the car. There were challenging moments across those three days, but as a team, we're pushing hard in preparation for the first race in China. By day three, I was already becoming more comfortable on track, and so I'm keen to get racing next month. I'm not setting my expectations too high, but I'm feeling confident - my goal is to do my best and have a clean weekend that I can be proud of.” Mathilda Paatz Biography Mathilda, 17, from Cologne, Germany, joined the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team Driver Academy in November 2025, and was announced as the team's F1 ACADEMY representative for the 2026 season, competing with PREMA Racing. In addition to her full-season debut with Aston Martin Aramco in F1 ACADEMY this year, which gets underway at the Shanghai International Circuit on 13-15 March, Mathilda continues to compete in the Formula Winter Series and F4 CEZ Championship, showcasing her adaptability and dedication across categories. Mathilda brings an impressive racing background. She began karting in 2019 at age ten, swiftly showing promise with third place in the 2020 ADAC Kart Masters - Mini category. In 2022, she claimed victory in the ADAC Kart Masters - Ladies Cup and finished third overall in the standings. Stepping into single-seaters, she became the first female driver supported by the ADAC Motorsport Junior program in 2024 with ADAC Formel Junior Team in F4 France. She built further momentum in 2025, securing four wins in the E4 Championship - Trophy Woman and multiple class podiums in the competitive Italian F4 Championship. Her F1 ACADEMY debut came as a Wild Card entry in Montreal in June 2025 with Hitech TGR, following a solid F4 Central European Zone (CEZ) Championship campaign where she achieved a podium (second place at the Red Bull Ring) and finished eighth overall with several top five finishes. This progression positions her as the second F4 CEZ graduate to enter F1 ACADEMY, highlighting her rise on the international stage.  Palou Unveils 110th Indianapolis 500 Ticket     INDIANAPOLIS (Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2026) – Four-time NTT INDYCAR SERIES champion Alex Palou unveiled the ticket for the 110th Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge on Tuesday, Feb. 24 in Indianapolis.

Featuring the winning driver on the next year's “500” ticket dates to Mauri Rose's appearance in 1948. Spain native Palou received a special DHL delivery at K1 Speed in Fishers. He opened the DHL packaging to reveal an enlarged version of the colorful ticket, featuring a photo of his jubilant celebration standing on his winning car following the victory. “I always had to sign the ticket as a driver, and I always wanted be on the ticket,” Palou said. “It's amazing. I love it. It was probably the coolest day of my life, and I cannot wait to see it on a small scale all around IMS. It's going to look good.” Designed in house by Senior Art Director Mandy Walsh, the ticket celebrates the excitement of Palou's first “500” victory with his full-color image superimposed over an overhead shot of his car crossing the famed Yard of Bricks. The ticket also features a patriotic flair to celebrate the nation's military, which is honored throughout the storied event held annually during Memorial Day weekend, and the 250th birthday of the United States this year.

Johnson Feasts on Home Cooking To Earn First Win at St. Pete   ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (Sunday, March 1, 2026) – Nikita Johnson earned his first INDY NXT by Firestone victory Sunday, winning his hometown Grand Prix of St. Petersburg after prevailing in a duel of talented teenagers. Johnson, from St. Petersburg, delivered his first victory in just his fourth career start in the INDYCAR development series. It also was the first INDY NXT victory for Cape Motorsports, which Johnson joined this offseason after a part-time foray last season in the series with HMD Motorsports. SEE: Race Results “I can't thank the boys from Cape Motorsports enough and everyone from ECR who has been helping us,” Johnson said. “It's a pretty amazing feeling to get my first win in INDY NXT and Cape's first win in INDY NXT. I can't wait to see all my friends and family.” Series rookie Johnson, 17, drove his No. 21 Cape Motorsports Powered by ECR entry to victory by .6990 of a second over pole sitter Max Taylor, 18, in the No. 28 Susan G. Komen car of Andretti Global. Rookie Tymek Kucharczyk rounded out the podium finishers in his first INDY NXT start by placing third in the No. 71 HMD Motorsports entry, 5.055 seconds behind Johnson. Andretti Global took three of the top five spots. Seb Murray placed fourth in the No. 27 Prosperity machine, while Lochie Hughes rounded out the top five in the No. 26 car. Johnson wasted no time asserting his command of this race, scheduled for 45 laps but halted on time after 55 minutes. He started second and used a bold, sweeping move to the outside of Taylor in Turn 1 at the start to grab a lead he would never relinquish. “It was pretty straight up,” Johnson said. “I reviewed some video from previous years on YouTube, the INDY NXT channel. I knew I wanted to get up front quickly, and I did just that. I went into Turn 1 and knew what he (Taylor) was going to do before he did it and just went around the outside. After that, I kept it pretty simple, tried to keep a nice gap.” Caution periods ended up being Johnson's biggest foe besides Taylor. The race was slowed by four full-course yellows, but Johnson held off Taylor on each of the restarts. Perhaps Taylor's best chance came on a restart on Lap 20. He tried the same move Johnson used to gain the lead on Lap 1, but his attempt at a sweeping, outside pass was unsuccessful. “All the restarts were pretty difficult,” Johnson said. “He (Taylor) caught on at one point, and I had throw in a little curve ball and change it up.” Taylor maintained pressure on Johnson for the entire race, never trailing by more than a second and keeping his car usually within six- or seven-tenths of the leader. But Taylor also never got close enough after restarts to mount a serious challenge to the race lead. The two teens traded blows over the closing laps. Johnson turned his quickest lap of the race on Lap 38, but Taylor countered with the speediest lap overall on Lap 39. “Good race overall, good points,” Taylor said. “Showed a lot of pace but just messed up on the start. “The restarts were very difficult to get right. Just kept trying to apply the pressure, trying different things. Probably could have had an opportunity to pass him there, but you live and you learn.”
