It's that time of year, when the action off the track is as interesting as the racing. We look at which drivers have found new seats, who are still looking for rides, and the latest from the rumor mill. As an added bonus, you get a impromptu review of the Brad Pitt movie, F1.

We kick of a new series with a profile of IndyCar legend Bobby Rahal. Spend a few minutes with us to learn more about his amazing career as a driver and team owner through all the changes across his 40 year career.

While on the surface, the may look the same, IndyCar and Formula 1 have unique differences that bring excitement to each series. In this episode, we talk with our friend and die-hard F1 fan, Kevin Gesme, to help him understand the similarities and differences of the two series. We cover a lot of ground in this hour and twenty minute episode including qualifying formats, pit stop procedures, and the unique characteristics of oval racing, particularly at the Indianapolis 500. We also share insights into IndyCar's team structure, driver development system, and the competitive nature of the sport, along with recommendations for which races new fans should plan to attend in the upcoming season. @indycar @INDYCARonFOX @indianapolismotorspeedway @Formula1 ​

The 2025 NTT IndyCar season was a tale of two halves. We take a look at the first nine races, from St. Pete to Road America and highlight some of the themes that began to emerge. And no, Alex Palou winning almost everything was not the only theme we discuss. This is a long one, so grab a beverage, settle into your favorite comfy chair, and enjoy the show.

Well, that didn't take long. Released from Penske on Tuesday, Will Power fills the vacancy at Andretti created by Colton Herta's move to Cadillac F1. We were planning on a Power/Penske retrospective but this news changes everything. We'll tell you what we think and how this will shake up the 2026 NTT IndyCar season.
