654: Reading The Room - 2026 IndyCar Sonsio GP Review

from Motorsport101 · host Dre Harrison

Warning: Racial topics are discussed in this episode that you may find upsetting. Look after yourselves.IndyCar had their Sonsio Grand Prix at the Indy Road Course this time last week, and all hell broke loose over a controversial incident early on in the race, when Alex Rossi's car dies on the home straight with cars coming through at 170mph, while the series delayed a caution while the leaders chose whether or not to pit, and confusion when even the broadcast wasn't sure if it was a Full Course Yellow. Rossi put the series on blast over a hybrid unit failing to work, and the danger of the situation.It led to a grieving of issues that Dre, RJ and Cam have had with the series for sometime - Including the admittance that IndyCar have been making decisions based on flawed logic, and some of the marketing within the series after the Freedom 250 merchandise faux-pas and a rather touchy Meyer Shank livery, alongside elements of the FOX partnership.It's not for the faint of heart, don't say we didn't warn you. Oh, and Christian Lundgaard won.
