Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!Will Byron wins on fuel strategy at Iowa in NASCAR. Next week, NASCAR Goes Bowling at the Glen!Max Verstappen looked like a hungry-hungry hippo the way he was passing just about everyone in the mid-field but it was Nico Hulkenberg and Kimi Antonelli who were the hungriest of hippos that moved up 5 places each by the end of the Hungarian Grand Prix. Taking the top step of the podium was Lando Norris with Oscar Piastri close behind. One of the McLaren drivers are just about certain to take the WDC for this year but it will be a battle that will likely come down to the final races to decide a champion. This year seems to mirror that of about 10 years ago when it was Lewis and Nico at Mercedes.A good weekend of sportscar racing took place at Road America. BMW got their first win in GTP and it was also a 1-2 finish for the team. BMW also took the win in GTD Pro!Coming up this weekend: NASCAR at Watkins Glen, Indycar at Portland, Super Formula at SUGO, & Supercars at Ipswich

Send us a textTatiana Calderón takes us on a high-speed journey through her remarkable racing career that spans continents, championships, and countless barriers broken. The Colombian driver opens up about discovering her passion at just nine years old, when a five-minute ticket at a rental go-kart track sparked a lifelong love affair with speed and adrenaline.What unfolds is a story of extraordinary determination as Tatiana left her homeland at 17 to chase her Formula 1 dreams, first in the United States and later in Europe. Perhaps most touching is how motorsport transformed her relationship with her sister – seven years her senior – from distant siblings to inseparable partners, with her sister eventually becoming her manager and traveling companion through the racing world.Tatiana's racing credentials are impressive – competing in Formula 3 alongside future F1 champions like Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, testing in Formula 1, racing in Japan's Super Formula, making IndyCar appearances, tackling the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, and currently piloting a Ford Mustang in IMSA's GTD category. But beyond the race results lies a more profound narrative about identity and belonging in motorsport."I think, as a woman, we are so different and it's beautiful to be different," Tatiana reflects, revealing how she initially tried to change her nature to fit into the male-dominated environment before realizing that embracing differences is the path forward. This evolution in thinking represents the heart of her advocacy for women in racing – creating environments where women can compete equally without changing who they are.Whether you're a dedicated racing fan or simply appreciate stories of perseverance and passion, Tatiana's journey offers inspiration and perspective on what it takes to succeed against the odds. Follow her current racing season in the IMSA WeatherTech Championship and connect with her on Instagram @tatacalde7, where she personally responds to messages from aspiring racers seeking guidance.Support the showFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/womensmotorsportsnetworkandpodcast INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/womensmotorsportsnetwork/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ TIKTOK: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melindarussell/ X: https://x.com/IWMANation FACEBOOK Personal Page: https://www.facebook.com/melinda.ann.russell

After a busy weekend of racing, Phil and Josh return for E276 of the GSP to discuss Bubba Wallace's massive win at Indy along with Connor Zilisch getting his third straight XFinity win. The guys discuss the events at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for both series, along with the Trucks at IRP, which saw Layne Riggs get his second win of 2025.

Zilisch continues his climb to an eventual Cup ride with his progress on ovals.  At Laguna Seca, Alex Palou continues his domination of IndyCar with his 8th win of 2025. Only Pato O'Ward has a mathematical shot at the title after this race, but more storylines are there within the entire series. Phil and Josh discuss it all regarding the Indy Cars as they go towards their season end. Formula 1 is just about to head to their summer break, but not before Oscar Piastri gets a huge win over teammate Lando Norris at Spa in the Belgian Grand Prix. The GSP Roundup covers F2/F3, Indy NXT, NHRA, Formula E, WSBK, WRC and IMSA before the guys make their picks for the F1 Hungarian Grand Prix and NASCAR XFinity and Cup at Iowa Speedway.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!After a minor summer break of our own, Nate and Christian are back and do their best to recap all the action that has happened this past month.NASCAR was at Sonoma, Dover, and Indy these past three weeks. SVG solidifies his playoff presence with his 3rd win of the season at Sonoma. Nate gives us his on the ground report from Dover where Denny Hamlin took the win there. Last but not least, we touch on the Brickyard 400 where William Darrell "Bubba" Wallace Jr. comes out on top!IMSA is going to Road America this weekend but we recap their previous race at Mosport which had plenty of action! AO Racing claims their first LMP2 win and DragonSpeed take the win in GTDPro.Staying in the sportscar world, we also recap WEC's 6h of Interlagos. A race that went green for just about the entire way with only a couple VSCs or code 60s which was great to watch a race play out in its entirety that led to not only Cadillac's first win in Hypercar but their first 1-2 as well! Lexus takes their first LMGT3 win too!IndyCar had 4 races in the past 3 weeks where two drivers split the wins - Pato and Palou. Impressive drives by Kyffin Simpson, Christian Lungaard, Rinus Veekay, and David Malukas over the course of these past few rounds as well. After all the racing that did happen, it's looking more and more likely that Palou will indefinitely take his 4th IndyCar championship. He could even clinch the title after this next race at Portland.Formula 1 went to Spa this past weekend where once again we had rain. This time was not as severe as 2021 and we were able to go racing after a delay but the response after the race was one that drivers thought they could've gone racing a bit sooner. In the end, they played it safe and McLaren was able to secure a 1-2 with Piastri ahead of Norris. F1 heads to Hungary this weekend before they take their traditional summer break.Coming up this weekend: NASCAR at Iowa, IMSA is at Road America, and F1 is at Hungary.

¡Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de Desde el Paddock! Esta semana tenemos como invitado a una figura histórica del automovilismo mexicano: Luis “Chapulín” Díaz, piloto que abrió camino en las categorías estadounidenses, marcó época en resistencia y dejó huella en Le Mans. Desde sus inicios en el karting con Memo Rojas hasta sus años dorados en American Le Mans Series, repasamos su trayectoria completa, incluyendo la creación de Escudería Telmex y el intento por llegar a la Formula 1 a través de la Formula 3000.Durante la conversación abordamos por qué su generación creció apuntando hacia IndyCar y no hacia Europa, cómo fue su paso por Grand-Am e IMSA, y por qué 2009 con Fernández Racing marcó su cima profesional. También nos narra su experiencia en las 24 Horas de Le Mans y su visión actual como piloto de simulador, reflexionando sobre sus ventajas, sus límites y su valor real como herramienta formativa para los pilotos del futuro.Además, agradecemos a todos los que participaron en la dinámica de Aeroméxico Rewards. Recibimos cientos de respuestas y pronto los ganadores estarán recibiendo un correo con toda la información para acceder a su premio. Gracias por su entusiasmo y, una vez más, a Aeroméxico Rewards por hacer esto posible. Recuerden que el próximo capítulo será grabado con público en vivo.En noticias de Formula 1, la bomba de la semana es la salida de Christian Horner de Red Bull Racing tras dos décadas, seis títulos de constructores y ocho de pilotos. Su salida ocurre en medio de tensiones internas, fuga de talento técnico y una incapacidad de generar un segundo auto competitivo. La llegada de Laurent Mekies como nuevo Team Principal abre una nueva etapa: ingeniero de formación, con experiencia en la FIA y Ferrari, ahora tendrá la tarea de recuperar la cohesión del equipo, mantener a Max Verstappen a bordo y resolver problemas técnicos urgentes.El futuro de Verstappen vuelve al centro del debate. ¿Está su permanencia ligada a la salida de Horner o esta fue consecuencia del desgaste con su entorno? La supuesta reunión en Cerdeña entre Toto Wolff y Max ha alimentado todo tipo de especulaciones. ¿Qué haría cualquiera en su lugar: quedarse en Red Bull o abrir un nuevo capítulo?En Formula E, la doble fecha de Berlín dejó una victoria para Jaguar con Mitch Evans bajo lluvia y otra para Nick Cassidy con remontada desde el fondo. Sin embargo, la gran historia fue la coronación anticipada de Oliver Rowland como campeón de la temporada 2025 con Nissan. La consistencia y el control de carrera le bastaron para sellar el título con dos rondas aún por disputarse.En NASCAR, Shane van Gisbergen volvió a imponer su ley en circuitos mixtos. Ganó en Sonoma liderando 97 de 110 vueltas, sumando su tercera victoria del año y confirmando su estatus como el nuevo referente en este tipo de trazados. Chase Briscoe y Chase Elliott completaron el podio, en una carrera marcada por la estrategia en los pits, múltiples banderas amarillas y un In-Season Challenge que sigue elevando la tensión entre pilotos en busca de puntos clave.

¡Como me gusta este podcast! ¡Como me gustan estos coches! Excesivos, brutales… sencillamente son, para mí, los coches de competición en circuito más espectaculares de la historia. Fruto de un reglamento poco restrictivo… no como los de ahora… Si conoces los “Silueta” te va a interesar mucho este video, pero si nos los conoces… ¡te va a interesar más! Te lo prometo. Lo primero que hay que hacer, porque quizás alguno no lo sepa, es responder a esta pregunta: ¿Qué es un coche “silueta”? Lo primero que hay que decir es que los “silueta” son coches del entonces llamado Grupo 5, pero no todos los grupo 5 son coches de la categoría “silueta”. Los Grupo 5 nacieron en 1966 e inicialmente eran coches nacidos para la competición. Te pongo algunos ejemplos: Alfa Romeo TT33TT/12, Alpine Renault A442, Ford GT40, Ferrari 512 M/S, Matra Simca MS670 o Porsche 917 por citar unos ejemplos… coches preciosos y que, seguro, merecen otro video para ellos. Pero en 1976 y hasta 1982, época de mi adolescencia y juventud, nace la cuarta y última generación del Grupo 5 y estos son los “silueta”. La FIA creó esta categoría para coches derivados de la calle, pero ampliamente, yo diría que muy ampliamente, modificados. La federación exigía que el capó, parabrisas, puertas completas y techo fueran los mismos que en el coche original. Pero lo demás, incluidos los pasos de rueda y la parte posterior era libre. El motor debía contar con el bloque motor original y en la posición original. Es decir, no podías hacer un 911 con motor delantero, pero sí ponerlo más bajo o más adelantado y prepararlo a fondo, incluso aumentando la cilindrada o añadiendo “turbos” a placer siempre que el bloque fuese original. Lo mismo sucedía con la suspensión, debía ser de igual sistema, pero de diseño y componentes libres. Había exigencias en cuanto a normas de seguridad, pesos mínimos y dimensiones, pero en general las normas eran muy “laxas” y ello dio lugar a verdaderos monstruos de la competición… ¿Qué no te lo crees? Vamos a ver unos cuantos… 1. BMW 3.0 CSL (1972). Uno de los primeros trabajos del departamento M fue la fabricación de un coupé de la serie E9 para ser preparado para competición. 2. Lancia Stratos Turbo (1976). Terminada su etapa en los Rallyes el Stratos tuvo una segunda oportunidad en los circuitos de la mano del reglamento de los silueta… pero no tan exitosa. 3. Chevrolet Corvette Greenwood (1976). He elegido de este modelo la versión denominada “Spirit of Le Mans 1976”. Este coche, como un Ferrari que veremos más adelante, participaba dentro de una categoría de la norteamericana IMSA. 4. Porsche 911-935 (1976). Uno de los “silueta” por excelencia. Y en el caso concreto del 911-935 de nominado “Moby Dick” probablemente el más brutal de todos y al que dedicamos un video completo titulado “Moby Dick: el Porsche Turbo más brutal” que te animo a que lo veas. 5. BMW 320i Turbo (1977). El CSL era demasiado grande y demasiado antiguo así que BMW pensó en un más manejable serie 3, pero eso sí, con turbo y una potencia que según algunas fuentes llegaron a los 900 CV… 6. Ferrari 512 BB LM (1977). Este coche corrió Le Mans encuadrado en la categoría norteamericana IMSA… que fue prohibida en esta prueba en 1983. 7. Toyota Celica LB Turbo (1977). El apoyo de Toyota Alemania al preparador, muy prestigioso, Schnitzer, hizo posible que naciese este modelo que declaraba 560 CV para un peso claramente por debajo de los 900 kg. 8. Ford Capri Turbo Zakspeed (1978). Ford quiso competir en la categoría “hasta 2 litros” del Grupo 5 “siluetas” y para ello encargó al prestigiosos preparados Zakspeed un motor de 1.4 litros para montar en un espectacular y aerodinámico Ford Capri. 9. Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo (1979). Lancia tenía una base excelente, como era el coupé Montecarlo con dos plazas y motor central, para crear un silueta destinada al Grupo 5 de la FIA. 10. Mazda RX-7 252i (1979). El grupo 5 “Silueta” tuvo continuidad en Japón una vez acabada su vida en Europa, en el Campeonado del Mundo FIA. Y hubo muchos coches japoneses preparados bajo este reglamento. Conclusión. Siempre digo lo mismo: Los reglamentos actuales son tan estrictos y tan detallados que dejan poco a la imaginación… antes no era así y eso producía coches como estos, como los Grupo B, como los prototipos y Formula 1 de los años 70 y 80.

Davey Euwema previews the WEC’s trip to Brazil, Ryan Myhrin looks ahead to IMSA’s trip to Canada, and Nick Daman gives his verdict on the British Grand Prix, in F1 Team by Team.

On this week's Double Stint, Jonathan Grace and John Dagys catch up on the weekend's action before diving into the latest news headlines, answer a listener question and preview this weekend's IMSA and WEC action.

Debrief alert! INTC co-host Jeff Braun helped run a GT3 Corvette at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this year. To a top-ten finish!In his day job, Jeff is comp director for an IMSA team. Baptiste Viala is a 25-year-old engineer who works with him. June marked Jeff's sixth time running a car at Le Mans and Baptiste's first.Two cool cats. And they have surprisingly different angles on the same trip to France.This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. We call this format “The Rookie and the Vet.”(For the record, we almost called this episode “Both Sides Now,” a'la Joni Mitchell. That got nixed quick, though, because Sam totally would have sung that song on air, guaranteed, like a dying cat, okay, and no one needs that sort of thing from him, ever.)RELATED TRIVIA: The thing is… I *have* seen La Sarthe from both sides now? From pits to stands, and still, somehow: It's mostly crêpes that I recall. Perhaps I don't know crêpes at all? Tears and fears and feeling proud! To say “I crêpe you,” right out loud! Dreams and schemes and podium crowds—sure, I've loved Le Mans that way. But also, there is in the vendor area occasionally a food truck that will sell you a fresh crêpe at six in the morning, and that sucker is tasty enough to rip your face off.(Mitchell is a good Le Mans vibe, incidentally. Who knew? Hang on the fence at Tertre Rouge sometime, cue up "California.” Excellent.)This episode was produced by Mike Perlman.**Who We Are + Spicy Merch:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.ItsNotTheCar.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**Support It's Not the Car:Contribute on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/notthecar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?
