Send us a textThe Grand Finale of the 2024 NTT IndyCar Series was a race to remember!!After getting evicted from the original Downtown Circuit, the race promoters  (i.e. Scott Borchetta) secured the Nashville Superspeedway for the promised "Final Event" of the IndyCar season. Those who made the short trip out to the 1.33 mile concrete oval were rewarded with a far better race than the makeshift street circuit could have provided. Even though title challenger Will Power's race (and belts) unraveled early on, there was plenty of high-speed action as recently relocated hometown hero Colton Herta navigated a late traffic jam to earn his first victory on an oval.In a somewhat anti-climatic fashion, Alex Palou earned his 3rd IndyCar title...an incredible feat when you consider the competitiveness of the IndyCar driver lineup, the equality of the cars, and the level of competition between and within  teams. We think The IndyCar Fan Podcast captures the key moments and strategies of the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix. Give it a listen....and if you like it, let us know!!

On today's episode, we chat with rookie Indy driver, Sting Ray Robb! Sting Ray started chasing his dream and began kart racing at age 5. Over the next ten years, he garnered several National Titles and was twice ranked the number one US Driver in his age group. He remains the only Triple Crown winner - having won the Florida Winter Tour Championship, the CanAm Championship, and the Challenge of the Americas Championship all in the same year. He earned a much coveted seat on Team USA in three consecutive years that allowed him to compete in Spain, Portugal and Italy. His transition to formula open wheel began at the Skip Barber Karts to Cars Shootout, where he was the recipient of the Bryan Herta Scholarship and named the Winter Series Rookie of the Year. That scholarship enabled him to transition to the Road to Indy at the age of 15. That Indy Pro Championship provided Sting Ray the opportunity to transition to Indy Lights where he successfully piloted the Andretti Autosport #2 to the 2022 Indy Lights VICE CHAMPIONSHIP. Sting Ray finished the 2022 season with 11 Top Five finishes, 8 Podiums, 4 Fastest Laps, 2 Poles, 1 Win, 99% Laps Completed. Sting Ray is now realizing his dream of driving in the NTT INDYCAR Series piloting the #51 Dale Coyne Racing with Rick Ware Racing INDYCAR.

Welcome to Episode 21 of the Lovecars On the Grid Podcast, where we've had a jam packed week of motorsport! We start with Paul Woodman's race in the Caterham Academy, which was at Brands Hatch this week. Even with Tiff Needell there to cheer him on, Paul unfortunately had a disappointing race, having chose the wrong tyres for the race this time. This comes after choosing the wrong tyres for qualifying at Silverstone at the last race! Full video to come soon and next race at Croft with just three races to go. Can Paul get a podium in the last few races? What do you think? In British GT, the cars were in the rain at Snetterton this week, with wins from Aston Martin and Mercedes. In DTM, Alexander Albon had a tough couple of races in his AlphaTauri Ferrari, finishing 5th overall at Zolder circuit. In Moto GP, perhaps the biggest news was the announcement of the retirement of Valentino Rossi, who will hang up his leathers after 25 years racing as 'The Doctor' in Moto GP. In the Grand Prix itself, there was a red flag after lap 3 at the Styrian Grand Prix, after a crash involving Dani Pedrosa and Lorenzo Salvadori which caused bikes to burst into flames in a very dramatic event. In World Superbikes, the riders were in the Czech Republic, and Irish rider Jonathan Rea saw his Championship lead reduced after finishing in 3rd place behind British rider Scott Redding and Turkish rider Toprak Razgatlioglu. Elsewhere in America, there was lots going on, with both NASCAR and Indycar. The Big Machine Music City Grand Prix was the race for Indycar, in Nashville, with lots of bumps and crashes, especially on the race restarts. The race ended up taking 2 hours 45 minutes with a win for Swedish driver Marcus Ericsson. The NASCAR was another great race, at Watkins Glen International, New York, with a win for Kyle Larson, his fifth for this season so far, chasing off his teammate Chase Elliott. Coming up next week, we have lots more action in Europe, with the second round in Austria for the Moto GP with the Austrian Grand Prix, World Rally Championship are in Belgium, whilst British Superbikes are at Donington Park four you motorbike fans.

Combine that with the cancellation of the July 11 Honda Indy Toronto because of Canada's ongoing battle with COVID-19, and this year's NTT INDYCAR SERIES championship will consist of 16 races instead of 17. INDYCAR won't have another race until the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix on the streets of Nashville on August 8.  Martin interviews Rinus VeeKay of The Netherlands, who was forced to miss the previous race at Road America because of a broken clavicle he incurred in a bicycle crash in Indiana on June 14.  The feature interview is with 2014 NTT INDYCAR SERIES champion and 2018 Indianapolis 500 winning driver Will Power from his home at Lake Norman in North Carolina.  For more IndyCar coverage, follow Bruce Martin at Twitter at @BruceMartin_500.  Learn more about your ad choices.
