Show Notes
With a rematch of the Romain Grosjean/Scott McLaughlin on-track warfare and a fascinating strategy chess game, the Alabama Indy Grand Prix at Barber raised plenty of talking points to debate on this week’s episode of The Race IndyCar Podcast.
The Race’s Jack Benyon and IndyCar podium finisher JR Hildebrand analyse Grosjean’s drive, discuss whether his Turn 5 error gave McLaughlin what was already an inevitable win, and explain how he’s excelled in saving fuel in multiple races this year.
They also chat about McLaughlin’s habit for seizing an opportunity, whether that's looking dominant in the lead of the race or making a win seem inevitable when coming from behind.
The hosts also explain why they aren’t ready to hit the panic button for Josef Newgarden - fresh off of a starring role in IndyCar’s new documentary series - after another troublesome weekend, and wax lyrical about Christian Lundgaard’s ace overtake and why it was even more important than it looked.
