His name is synonymous with sports in the 70's. You didn't have to follow racing to know who AJ Foyt was. He's a part of Americana and in 1975 he was looking to win his 4th Indy 500. A week earlier, he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated after winning the pole position in true Foyt fashion. His first lap in qualifying was a blistering 195.313 mph and his 4-lap average of 193.975 secured the pole position in Indianapolis. But rain and Bobby Unser had other plans… a downpour ended the race after just 174 of the 200 laps, and Unser was awarded the victory with 1974 champion Johnny Rutherford finishing 2nd and AJ a disappointing 3rd… taking it all in was a kid who grew up just north of the famous racetrack and attended his first race at the age of 6 in 1966… Scott Gauger hasn't missed an Indy 500 since, including the '75 race that saw Mother Nature end the race before it could properly come to it's scheduled conclusion. Gauger grew up around racing and started working at Indianapolis Motor Speedway when he was just 13. 5 years later in 1978, he took his first official position with an IndyCar team, and almost 50 years later, he's still a part of the Old Brickyard, working on two winning Indy 500 teams… 2016 He worked for the Andretti-Herta Autosport team that won the checkered flag for the 100th running of the Indy 500 with Alexander Rossi behind the wheel… and a year later, he was with Andretti Autosport when Takuma Sato was the first to cross the finish line. And while Gauger works officially for separate IndyCar teams, his unofficial position is Ambassador of the Indy 500. He gives tours, gets tickets for kids, and promotes the race 24/7, 365 days a year. On the Past Our Prime podcast, Gauger tells us about how he grew up near 3-time Indy 500 winner Louis Meyer, who is widely known for starting the annual tradition of drinking mile after winning at Indy… Gauger talks about the greats and says AJ Foyt is the best racer of all-time, and the first person he ever saw hav a personalized license plate… He tells us about drinking the milk after winning in '16 and again in '17 and he tells us which famous actor was the best racer of the bunch… if you know racing, it won't be a surprise. And Gauger tells us why the racers of today aren't as well-known as the ones we grew up watching 50 years ago. The Indy 500. It's as American as it gets… and so is Scott Gauger, Mr. Indy 500 on the Past Our Prime podcast. Give us a review and a download if you would and share it with your friends.

Si en el anterior episodio los chicos del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos preparaban para el Gran Premio de Bélgica, que da fin a las vacaciones de verano, en este segundo episodio de la semana hacen un buen repaso y análisis de las dos competiciones activas de las que pudimos disfrutar el pasado fin de semana. Tänak se lleva el Rally de Ypres. En Ypres, Bélgica, pudimos ver cómo Rovanperä cometía el primer gran error de su temporada. Un vuelco el viernes le dejó fuera de la lucha por la victoria en la prueba y, por ende, de llevarse ya el Campeonato. Aún así, acabó por llevarse el Power Stage y con él 5 puntos más. Así, el piloto finés lleva 6 Power Stages y 2 segundos puestos en un total de 9 Rallys (no puntuó en el Power Stage de Kenia). Por su parte, Tänak no perdonó y se llevó la segunda victoria consecutiva de la temporada. Parece, como decíamos tras las anteriores pruebas en Estonia y Finlandia, que Tänak vuelver a ser Tänak, algo que nos agrada y da muchísima más vistosidad a las pruebas. Y, como no podía ser de otra forma, tenemos que nombrar también a Neuville, que perdonó cuando no debía. Tras el fallo de Rovanperä tenía muchas, muchísimas posibilidades de llevarse el Rally, pues tenía mucha ventaja sobre su compañero, pero al final también él cometió un error que le dejó en 7ª posición en su prueba de casa. Finalmente, el Rally de Ypres se lo llevó Tänak, al que acompañaron Evans y Lappi (de Toyota) en el podio. Tras ellos, Solberg, Katsuta, Greensmith, Neuville, Rovanperä y Breen. En cuanto a los tramos, Neuville se llevó 8, Evans, 5, Tänak,4 y Rovanperä, 3. El Mundial de Rallys, entonces, sigue liderado por Rovanperä, seguido de Tänak, Evans, Neuville, Katsuta, Breen, Lappi, Loeb, Ogier y Sordo. Bommarito, interrumpida por la lluvia y final bajo los focos. En la Indy, también el pasado fin de semana, tuvimos una carrera muy bonita y espectacular. Tuvo una interrupción por la lluvia y una posterior reanudación bajo los focos. Este punto, el hecho de que una carrera pueda terminar bajo los focos, a pesar de que haya caído la noche, es uno en el que esta competición está muy, muy por delante de la F1. En cuanto a la carrera, la victoria se la llevó Newgarden, seguido por el novato Malukas. Palou, que salía en muy buena posición - como todos los aspirantes al título en esta carrera - no tuvo ritmo y acabó 9º. La carrera, como decimos, terminó con victoria de Newgarden, con segundo puesto de Malukas y tercero de McLaughlin. Pato O’Ward fue 4º y Takuma Sato, 5º, seguido de Will Power, Marcus Ericsson, Scott Dixon, Alex Palou y Graham Rahal, en 10ª posición. Así las cosas, y a falta de dos carreras para que concluya el Campeonato, Will Power está líder del Campeonato (482 puntos), seguido por Josef Newgarden (479), Scott Dixon (468), Marcus Ericsson (465), Alex Palou (439), Scott McLaughlin (428) y Pato O’Ward (424). La próxima carrera, el 4 de septiembre, en Portland. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals
