Well, that was a race where you may have needed a degree if Mathematics to figure out what was happening. Unfortunately for Dre, his was in Broadcast Journalism.
Anyway, Dre, Cam and RJ review IndyCar’s 40th Anniversary of the streets of Toronto, and it took a spirited effort from Pato O’Ward, the right level of aggression and a little bit of strategic fortune for him to take his second victory in a week and hit a huge three to cut his Championship deficit down to 99. I know, huge implications, etc.
We also talk the contiuned struggles of Team Penske, after Scott McLaughlin’s race lasted 5 minutes via a wheel that wasn’t correctly attached, and Josef Newgarden crashing out yet again, this time being mounted unfortunately by Jacob Abel.
It was also a podium for the underdog, as Pato’s glory was shared by a brilliant Rinus Veekay in second, Dale Coyne’s first podium finish since David Malukas in Gateway 2022, andf Kyffin Simpson scored his first podium for Chip Ganassi Racing in third. But it makes you wonder, how did Andretti only end up 4-5 and 6 after all that pace?
All that and more, in another Motorsport101!
