It is finally time for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing, and our resident open wheeler Conor Daly will be rolling off P11 this coming Sunday. He joins co-host Chase Holden to break down all of the action from practice week and qualifying, which saw many surprises and breath-taking crashes. No surprise of course was bigger than rookie Robert Shwartzman putting his Prema entry on the pole. But, the news that Josef Newgarden and Will Power had failed tech and were being penalized also rocked the paddock. Conor gives listeners a detailed look at how his final qualifying attempt unfolded, which originally placed him in 13th, just a few tenths away from locking into the Fast 12. He also explains how on edge the cars are this year, and the major differences between being in qualifying trim and race trim.Pole winner Robert Shwartman joins the show to reflect on his historic feat of becoming the first rookie to capture P1 since 1983. He talks listeners through making the Fast 12 and the feeling he had laying down a perfect lap that held up for the top speed of the day. Robert explains that after the hardship he's faced in the Formula One ranks, it was incredible to feel the support from the crowd at Indianapolis. Conor and Chase also get to know Robert, the person outside of the race car, as they discuss his interest in hip hop music and how he is an aspiring musician himself. The guys chat about Prema team members like Ryan Briscoe being an asset and how Robert's car is feeling going into the big race on Sunday.

The Month of May is well under way, and Conor Daly brought home a hard fought 15th place finish at the Indy Grand Prix to kick things off. He joins co-host Chase Holden to fill listeners in on how a lap one dust-up with Callum Ilott caused him to have to fight from behind and how tire strategy ultimately allowed him to make a late race recovery. They also discuss Alex Palou's continued dominance and Rahal Letterman Lanigan's surprise qualifying efforts. Conor shines a light on the attrition and inconsistency the rest of the paddock (besides Palou) is seeming to deal with thus far this season and how everyone is operating on razor thin margins of error that can make or break race efforts.Four-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves joins the show to highlight his quest to capture an unprecedented fifth Borg-Warner trophy. Conor inquires about Helio's journey from full-time racer to part owner of Meyer Shank Racing, and how the team is adjusting to their technical alliance switch from Andretti Global to Chip Ganassi Racing. Helio gives listeners insight to how the major IndyCar teams (Penske, Ganassi and Andretti) operate behind the scenes, as well as their similarities and differences. The guys also chat about Helio's Indy 500 ride, his legacy in the sport, how Alex Palou ranks historically and working with Conor as a teammate at MSR.

The IndyCar season is picking up steam as the series moves from Barber into the Month of May. Conor Daly and the Juncos Hollinger team brought home a 19th place finish in yet another event that ran green in its entirety. He joins co-host Chase Holden on this edition of Speed Street to chat about the team's struggles with the primary tires this year and how the lack of attrition is forcing the entire paddock to adjust to gain on-track positions during the last three races. They also discuss Alex Palou's dominant victory, a huge boost in IndyCar's television ratings and preview the upcoming Indianapolis Grand Prix.Barber race winner Alex Palou joins the show to reflect on his incredible start to the 2025 season and how Chip Ganassi Racing continues to strive for new levels of excellence despite one of the greatest track records in IndyCar history. Alex explains that he is happy where he is at in the 10 car and hopes to carry his road course dominance into Indianapolis this month. Later on in the episode, Barber hard charger Rinus VeeKay also stops by to break down his 4th place finish, which was a major accomplishment for Dale Coyne Racing. Rinus explains that after tough results at Long Beach and Thermal, the team celebrated his hard fought top-5 like a victory this past weekend. (Thank you to Fox Sports for providing the Mike Shank audio from the IndyCar warm-up broadcast.)

Last week race fans had the opportunity to see IndyCars on track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time in 2025, and Conor Daly turned in impressive results during both days of the Open Test. He joins co-host Chase Holden to discuss what he and the Juncos Hollinger Team learned during their time in the IMS paddock and how the hybrid system performed its first time out at the legendary oval circuit. Conor explains why he thinks Team Penske will once again be in the running for the front row sweep, and how the littlest details matter when it comes to superspeedway racing. The guys also look ahead to this weekend's race in Barber and make some podium picks for Sunday.IndyCar Youtuber David Land joins the show to chat about the current state of the IndyCar Series and what social media content creators like himself can do to help drive the sport to the next level. David talks about how there currently aren't many Youtubers who concentrate solely on IndyCar, and how more creators with a similar output would be useful to bringing in new audiences. The guys talk about the current manufacturers in IndyCar and what can be done to attract new interest from other OEMs, including efforts to make the cars more of a focal point for the series. The interview also tackles the tough topic of negativity surrounding the series and what can be done to help curb bad publicity on social media, including changes to the schedule and less down time between events.

It's finally time for IndyCars to take the track at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and Conor Daly will be one of 34 drivers behind the wheel this week. He joins co-host Chase Holden to break down the schedule for this week's Indy 500 Open Test and what teams and drivers are hoping to gain during their track time on Wednesday and Thursday. Conor explains that the big question mark this year will be the hybrid system, which did not come into the series full-time until after the Indy 500 last year. In an effort to gain data on the new system, IndyCar is allotting teams qualifying power during this initial test, which is something that normally doesn't happen until the Month of May. As a result, there will be many unknowns during the open test, and race fans will be able to tune in for all the action this year on IndyCar's Youtube channel.

Conor Daly had a rough showing at the Long Beach Grand Prix, and he is back on Speed Street to join co-host Chase Holden and break down what happened. After struggling in qualifying, Conor and the 76-Juncos Hollinger Team had an error in their fuel calculations during the early stages of the race, which Conor explains took him out of competition due to having to reduce speed to save fuel. He also outlines some of the mechanical changes the team was making to help get him more comfortable behind the wheel, but ultimately it was a difficult race day. Despite a record turnout for the historic race, IndyCar is once again in the headlines for the wrong reason: poor television ratings. Conor and Chase dig into the problem that has plagued the series in recent years and ponder solutions that can help put the series' fantastic racing product in front of more viewers.Race winner Kyle Kirkwood joins the show to chat about Andretti Global's success on street courses and how he was able to stay ahead of series point leader Alex Palou after the last pit cycle. The moment of the race was when Kyle managed to run competitive lap times on cold tires to keep ahead of the charging Palou, who made things interesting in the closing laps. The guys talk about the confidence Kyle will carry forward to Barber and the Indy GP with a win under his belt and how he hopes to close the points gap between him and Palou. Kyle explains how he hopes to improve on ovals this year and how he's learned to love that form of racing in recent times. The conversation also touches on the electric environment in Long Beach and looks ahead to the open Indianapolis 500 test.

Taking charge of this race from the pole, McLaren-Mercedes' Oscar Piastri drove faultlessly to the chequered flag.  His team-mate, Lando Norris, meanwhile struggled in qualifying and drove a torrid race eventually to finish third, beaten also by Mercedes' George Russell.  Ferrari, running an uncomfortable tyre strategy, were a disappointing fourth and fifth while Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen could only manage P6 on a day he'll quickly want to forget.

It's finally Long Beach Grand Prix week, and Conor Daly has a brand new livery just in time for the famed event. He joins co-host Chase Holden to chat about the Mannkind-sponsored Juncos Hollinger 76 entry he'll be piloting this weekend, as well as what listeners should expect to see when IndyCar hits the track. The race has been lengthened to 90 laps this season, which Conor explains will unlock new opportunities for strategy. Drivers and teams will also be dealing with a similar tire selection to the St. Pete season opener, which showed favorable results. The guys make their podium picks for the race and chat about the other latest news around the IndyCar paddock.In celebration of the 40th anniversary of his 1985 Indianapolis 500 victory, IndyCar legend Danny Sullivan joins the program. He fills listeners in on his journey from Louisville, Kentucky to the famous Jim Russell Driving School in England, which sent him on the path of formula racing. After a brief stint in Formula One in 1983, Danny would return Stateside and take his place in the CART paddock. In 1985, Danny completed the famous “spin and win” at the Brickyard, which has become one of the most iconic moments in the history of the race. He chats with Conor and Chase about what life was like on the grid back then and what the victory did for his life and career.

From seemingly nowhere on Friday, when his Red Bull RB21-Honda was plagued with understeer, Max Verstappen rose to the pole at Suzuka on Saturday and to an (unprecedented) fourth consecutive race win on Sunday.  The two McLaren MCL39-Mercedes, driven by Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, clearly  provided the better performance packages; yet, by consolidating his pole and by perfectly managing his tyres and the race as a whole - and by driving faultlessly -  Verstappen achieved one of his greatest dry-track victories.  Relive those moments now on our latest podcast. It begins with Friday at Suzuka - when Jack Doohan survived a huge shunt due to a DRS error - and ends with Max's Perfect Day.

He joins co-host Chase Holden to discuss the results from the test and how the added weight of the new hybrid system seems to affect the balance of the car less at this track than others.

The second round of the FIA F1 World Championship gave us everything - a pole and a sprint win for Ferrari's newest driver, Sir Lewis Hamilton; a first GP pole for McLaren-Mercedes' Oscar Piastri; a tense race between Piastri and his team-mate, Lando Norris; and, after it was all over, a stunning report from the scrutineers that resulted in the disqualification of both Ferrari's and Pierre Gasly's Alpine-Renault. In this podcast, Peter looks back at those three, turbulent days in Shanghai.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It's finally race week again and the Speed Street podcast is here to tell you everything you need to know for this upcoming IndyCar weekend at Thermal Club. Conor Daly and Chase Holden discuss the uncertainty of the tire package and how it will hold up to the increased weight of the hybrid system, which was not in use at last year's $1 Million Challenge exhibition event. Conor explains that based on what we've seen from the track and the season opener at St. Pete, Alex Palou is still the driver to beat. The guys also chat about the recent test at Barber, this past weekend's Formula One season opener and make some podium picks for Thermal Club.

This being the Monday after the spellbinding Australian GP there's a lot to dissect. There's the Lando-Oscar battle; there's Max; there's the dismal day for Ferrari; there's the New Kimi; there are the whacks with the barriers by several of the rookies. And there's the rise and rise of Williams. So settle back, choose herbal tea if you must...and enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

The rain delivered another F1 thriller in Melbourne, with McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris crossing the line to win by only 0.8sec from Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen. George Russell and Kimi Antonelli finished P3-P4 for Mercedes and fifth was the excellent Alex Albon (Williams-Mercedes), ahead of Sauber-Ferrari's Nico Hulkenberg and the two, disappointing, Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Sir Lewis Hamilton. The race was strewn with incident, beginning with Racing Bull-Honda's Isaac Hadjar crashing on the formation lap; Alpine-Renault's Jack Doohan losing control on the straight on the opening lap; Carlos Sainz (Williams-Mercedes) spinning into the barriers due to a Safety Car mode glitch; Aston Martin-Mercedes' Fernando Alonso shunting at high speed on intermediate tyres; and Gabriele Bortoleto (Sauber-Ferrari) and Liam Lawson (Red Bull-Honda) going off-course while running slicks in the semi-wet. In addition, McLaren-Mercedes' Oscar Piastri (who seemed set to finish P2) spun luridly onto the grass and both Leclerc  and Antonelli survived quick track-surface spins without damage.  Peter Windsor in this video looks back at the day's key moments.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

We are in the middle of the agonizing gap between the first two races of the 2025 IndyCar season, but never fear as Conor Daly and Chase Holden are back with more Speed Street. Big news hits the motorsports world as Formula One announces that Cadillac will join the paddock in 2026, establishing itself an American-based team. The development could have serious implications for the future of IndyCar, as both Alex Palou and Colton Herta have been brought up as possible pilots for the team. The guys also chat about this week's test at Barber and the upcoming test schedule for the rest of the IndyCar paddock.Christian Lundgaard joins the show on his way to the Barber test to chat about what he and the Arrow McLaren team hope to learn for the upcoming road course events. He touches on the season opener at St. Pete and how it helped his confidence for the year to lead some laps, as well as his first impressions of his new teammates Pato O'Ward and Nolan Siegel. The guys also chat about the connection between the McLaren IndyCar and Formula One teams, and how the information shared has helped the relatively new IndyCar outfit be competitive in a short amount of time. The conversation also covers tire strategies, 2025 season goals and off-track golf games.

Plenty more irreverent chat here - all provoked by Cameron (so don't blame me!) :)There's a lot of pre-Melbourne chat, of course, with me trying to remind everyone that Lando Norris's biggest problem this year is not going to be how he stands up against Charles, Lewis, George or Max but how he deals with that ever-present threat that is Oscar Piastri.  Beating the guy in the same car as you is always the biggest challenge in F1.  Lewis and Charles are also up front in this chat - as is Jim Clark, who 60 years ago won both the FIA F1 World Championship and the Indianapolis 500 in the same year.  Enjoy and make mine a chai tea latte, thanks.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Lots of great questions and comments from our viewers/listeners as we went live on March 5 - the day after Jim Clark's birthday, as it happened.  The range of topics typically runs the full gamut, from Liam Lawson taking the trouble to watch his peers trackside in Bahrain to the effectiveness (or not) of Jean Alesi's incredibly early turn-in driving style.

Conor Daly brought home a hard fought 17th place finish in the 2025 IndyCar season opener in the streets of St. Petersburg. He joins co-host Chase Holden to unpack the weekend, including the practice sessions which were affected by the new tire allocation rules and qualifying which left a lot of competitive drivers buried in the pack. The guys compare notes on the atmosphere of the event, which saw great attendance and energy following a strong pre-season ad campaign from Fox. Speaking of which, the ratings return from the series' debut on network Fox saw a massive increase from last year, establishing itself as one of the highest non-Indy 500 broadcasts in recent history. Race winner Alex Palou joins the show to share how his team captured the victory and held off a hard charging Josef Newgarden and Scott Dixon in the final laps. Alex explains that traffic and well executed pit stops were the key to winning the race, an event that has long eluded him in his IndyCar career. The guys discuss how this win establishes Alex as an early season championship favorite, but there is still a lot of racing to go in a IndyCar series that gets more competitive with each passing year. Alex explains that now that he has captured a win at St. Pete, his next goal is to win on an oval, which he hopes to do this coming May in Indianapolis. 

It's finally race week, and Conor Daly is ready to be back on the IndyCar grid at St. Petersburg this coming Sunday. He joins co-host Chase Holden to give listeners a preview of what to expect at the famed street course for the 2025 IndyCar season opener. The guys also chat about the recent announcement that the popular “100 Days to Indy” docu-series will return, concentrating on both the build-up to the Indy 500 and the subsequent championship points battle. Finally, Conor and Chase offer a pre-season power ranking of the 2025 IndyCar paddock.The newly appointed President of IndyCar Series J. Douglas Boles joins the show to discuss how he will split his time between his new position and his current presidency over Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He gives listeners an idea of what his role will entail with the series and what some of his goals will be moving forward. He touches on the development of the new IndyCar chassis, connecting with the current OEMs and working with promoters to help build up the series' events throughout the year. Finally, Doug offers listeners some insight into what they should expect from the IMS Museum reopening in April and how it will reshape the way visitors perceive the speedway for years to come.

Time for some more thought-provoking F1 chat between Peter and Cameron. Booing is a hot topic - as is the dire need for F1's star drivers to do a bit more promotional work over the winter.  Add the proposal to "improve the racing" at Monaco and you have more than enough opinion and controversy to justify yet another venti latte.  Enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Join Peter and viewers/listeners on the first livestream posted from our new studio in Spain.  Feb 19 also happened to be the day after the night before - the follow-up to the much-vaunted F1 75 at London's O2 Arena. Peter canvasses opinions about the event in this livestream but there's also the usual mix of  F1 content from all angles of all eras.  Highlights include: Fernando's chances in 2026; driving on the road with F1 stars; the status of EV in F1 in the light of the rapidly-changing road car market; Christian Horner being booed at the F1 75 event; Oscar Piastri changing his driving style; Alain Prost compared with Carlos Reutemann; the proposal for additional, mandatory, pit stops at Monaco; Thierry Neuville's WRC season start; and whether aircraft pilots can learn from racing drivers (or vice versa).  An eclectic menu, in other words.  Enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

The IndyCar season is nearly upon us, and Conor Daly is here with a first hand look at his Juncos Hollinger number 78 Dallara and the rest of the paddock. He joins co-host Chase Holden to discuss how the test sessions at Sebring went earlier this week and why race fans shouldn't put too much stock into the results. Also, Conor gives listeners an update on his sponsorship deals for the 2025 season after a recent referendum with Polkadot was turned down. The guys chat about what this could mean for Conor's season as well as a hilarious interaction he had with Helio Castroneves during his time at Daytona. 

0203 - as in Feb 03...when Peter chatted with Cameron about all matters of F1 moment.

It's an exciting day for Conor Daly and Speed Street as the Juncos Hollinger IndyCar team unveils their base liveries for the 2025 season. Conor joins co-host Chase Holden to chat about striking paint schemes and what will be on the horizon for his number-78 Dallara this year. Conor also recaps a very exciting IndyCar Content Day and what he observed from the Fox Sports production crew. A recent dinner was held with members of the IndyCar paddock and Fox Sports and Conor reports that there are many exciting developments behind the scenes for 2025. It wouldn't be a true team livery reveal without hearing from the other half of the Juncos Hollinger garage, and Conor's teammate Sting Ray Robb joins the show to give his take on what the team is bringing to the table. Sting Ray discusses his tumultuous beginning to his IndyCar career and what he hopes to accomplish with JHR this year. He also fills listeners in on the origin of his name, which is arguably one of the most unique in all of motorsports. He and Conor chat about what they're excited for in 2025 and what to expect at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway come May.

Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden are happy to report that IndyCar is so BACK! After the premiere of the new Fox Sports/IndyCar commercial featuring Josef Newgarden that rocked the sports media world, it's safe to say that 2025 is shaping up to be a formidable year for the series. Conor and Chase discuss how the high production value of the advertisement was encouraging to see and how it portrayed IndyCar in a new light. They also chat about the big hires the new Prema IndyCar team made ahead of their high-budget livery unveiling on Youtube last week. Also, the 2025 paddock gets a little more crystal clear with Dale Coyne Racing's announcement that they've hired Jacob Abel for the season.ESPN broadcaster and sports expert Ryan McGee joins the show to connect the dots on his history in motorsports and why he feels so passionately for the Indianapolis 500. After growing up in Rockingham, North Carolina and following in the footsteps of his father, who happened to serve as a part-time gasman for NASCAR legend Dave Marcis, Ryan found his way into sports media and eventually his longtime home at ESPN. Along the way, he produced shows like RPM Tonight and Totally NASCAR which instilled a deep love and understanding of all forms of auto racing. Ryan explains the gravity of the Fox Sports deal for IndyCar and how it can help elevate the series to a new audience and standing in American culture. They also discuss the rich, vast history of motor racing, how race fans should be less divisive and the power of streaming and cable television ratings.

Spruce up your New Year with a dose of PW/Camchat - a podcast that begins with the best of intentions but ends, as they always do, with plenty of irreverent F1 sidetracks and vibrant, retro word-pictures.

Peter talks at length with the driver who in 2024 underwent open-heart surgery before rising again to win. Only one other driver in motor racing history - Robert Kubica - has won both a World Championship Grand Prix and a major rally championship; the other is Heikki Kovalainen. Winner of the 2008 Hungarian GP for McLaren-Mercedes and a podium finisher for Renault F1, Heikki subsequently won two Japanese Rally Championships with Toyota in 2022 and 2023. Then, in the spring of 2024,  Heikki's life changed suddenly when he underwent urgent open-heart surgery in Finland. For two hours he was on life-support.As we now know, the operation was a resounding success. Heikki was soon back in business, presenting the trophies on the podium for the Secto Rally of Finland in early August, before winning again in Japan. It wasn't over, though: on November 25 he was lying a stunning third in the WRC2 division of the Rally of Japan when he crashed heavily on a fast right-hander. As he says in this interview, "it gave the new heart system a bit of a work-out..." And still there was to be an epilogue: basically uninjured, Heikki on December 14-15 jumped into a car totally new to him and won the all-tarmac Union Rally in Italy. All for the love of his sport. Which is why, in our opinion Heikki was unquestionably the star of 2024 In this interview he talks to Peter about his surgery (44:30); about his massive shunt in Japan (28.53); and about beating the likes of Michael Schumacher, Sebastien Loeb, David Coulthard, Felipe Massa, Sebastian Vettel and Toyota's latest Rally star, Sami Pajari, in head-to-head match races in a wide variety of cars (17:00).With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

We are officially in a new calendar year and Speed Street is ready to kick things off with a bang. Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden check in after the holidays to report on the paddock's latest rumblings. They also weigh in on the recently announced 2025 IndyCar season start times and how no night races for this year might not necessarily be a bad thing, for now.Longtime open wheeler and IndyCar pace car driver Oriol Servià joins the show to help give listeners a better idea of the progression of IndyCar over the last two decades. Conor asks Oriol to compare and contrast the path he took to IndyCar with the current Road to Indy ladder system in place. They also chat about the 2011 season and some of Oriol's favorite cars he's driven in his career. Conor and Oriol find common ground in filling the role of substitute driver and competing with many different teams over the years. Oriol explains that without long term contracts in place, a driver constantly feels like he is auditioning for his ride and as a result, grows at a rapid pace due to always having to adapt quickly and perform.

The news we've all been waiting for is finally here as Conor Daly announces he will be driving full-time in the IndyCar Series for Juncos Hollinger Racing in 2025. He joins co-host Chase Holden to chat about how the deal came together and how talks really began after the season finale earlier this year in Nashville. Conor gives listeners some insight into what goes into raising funds to help secure a ride and what the partnership proposal process is like. The guys also chat about the prospect of being teammates with Sting Ray Robb and what Conor hopes to accomplish on track next season. 

A one-place grid penalty was brushed aside by Max Verstappen in Qatar: within about 25 seconds of the lights going out - for as long as it took to float into T1 on the inside of George Russell, RB20 perfectly-balanced - it was Max in front, with everyone else in his turbulence.  Lando Norris fought him hard but was eventually (and needlessly, in our opinion) penalised for not respecting yellow flags. Russell, ironically, was also penalised for a Safety Car infraction...which left P2 to Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, thereby keeping the Constructors' championship very much alive.  Here are all of Peter's summings-up from the three days of Qatar - plus the additional content he produced on race morning, when news broke of Verstappen's penalty.  With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It was a momentous Saturday evening on The Strip for not only did Max Verstappen clinch his fourth FIA F1 World Drivers' Championship but also Mercedes scored a convincing one-two finish, maximising the sweet spot of their Pirelli tyres in the cold of the Nevada night.  Ferrari finished third and fourth - a classy Carlos Sainz ahead of an irritated Charles Leclerc - and Max Verstappen drove cleanly and with polish to finish fifth, ahead of the two McLaren-Mercedes drivers.  McLaren never found a Mercedes-like feel for the Pirellis; and, in addition, Oscar Piastri contrived to misjudge his grid slot and thus to earn a five-sec penalty.Peter Windsor looks back at all three days, beginning with a very "green" track on Thursday evening (local time). With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It may be the first weekend after the IndyCar season finale, but the news cycle is in full swing. Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden report in to Speed Street with all of the latest breaking IndyCar headlines, including the monumental charter agreement and the effect it will have on bigger teams in the paddock like Chip Ganassi Racing. Marcus Armstrong and Callum Ilott announce their homes for 2025 and Logan Sargeant looks to make the jump from Formula One with a test for Meyer Shank Racing at Thermal Club.

After a rough qualifying effort and a grid penalty, Alex knew he had the odds stacked against him to stay ahead of Will Power in the final points standings. Alex explains that he was relieved when he heard about Will's seat belt failure and unplanned pit stop, but was disappointed that they did not get to race each other properly for the title. Alex and Conor relate over how the race at Nashville played out and what made it fun, but different from other oval races this season. Finally, Alex talks about his goal to win an oval race next season and what it will take to stay ahead of the competition.

The checkered flag has flown on the 2024 IndyCar season, and Conor Daly brought the Juncos Hollinger 78-car home to a well-earned 10th place finish. He joins co-host Chase Holden to talk about the unknowns the paddock faced as they rolled into Nashville Superspeedway, a track the IndyCar Series last raced at in 2008 when only a handful of current drivers were competing. Conor explains that he actually leaned on his teammate from the 2024 Indianapolis 500 Ryan Hunter Reay for some intel on the track, to which Ryan provided his race notes from his last visit. Much of the weekend saw drivers dealing with the mountainous bump in turn four, which caused teams to focus on finding a balance in their setups to try and ease the jump.

He joins co-host Chase Holden to chat about how after a disastrous start to the weekend, including an engine change and a grid penalty, he and the Juncos Hollinger 78 team were able to turn things around come race time. Using some heroics on the outside lane at the start of the race, Conor was able to advance 11 spots in the opening laps putting himself into contention. After a lucky yellow, he was able to pit with the leaders and make his final three passes to nestle into third place. From there he, Will Power and eventual race winner Pato O'Ward would break away from the rest of the pack. Pato joins the show to discuss the environment in Milwaukee over the weekend and how the racing action surprised him after an underwhelming test earlier in the year. He explains that the low lane worked best for him and it wasn't until he got into heavy traffic that he was concerned about Will Power closing in. After negotiating around the slower cars, Pato was able to come home to his third victory of the season. However, both he and Conor's weekend celebrations would be cut short by mechanical issues in race two on Sunday.Meanwhile while Pato and Conor were frustrated with being taken out of contention, Scott McLaughlin and the Thirsty Threes bounced back in a masterful way, parking the Team Penske 3 in victory lane and moving into third in the IndyCar season points battle.
