Everything’s weirder in Texas. That’s how the phrase goes, right?
Dre and Cam return to make sense of IndyCar’s big new showpiece round, the Grand Prix of Arlington. And with it, Andretti taking a dominant 1-3-4 despite making five errors out of their eight pitstops across the race. But a perfectly executed gameplan on track came together to demote Alex Palou to a devastating… second place.
Kyle Kirkwood leads the standings for the very first time ever, is it finally his year to pit it altogether as THE American IndyCar prospect? Has the Will Power revenge tour finally began with his first Andretti podium? And is Marcus Ericsson actually doing enough to save his job?
We also talk about all the logistics around Arlington as a race. There’s a reason why we go off on IndyCar’s current presentation on the broadcasts with timing tower issues, janky format changes to the Fast 6 round of qualifying, and missing overtakes on screen. And an important question to ask – Is this better than the Texas Motor Speedway we left behind half an hour up the road?
