Corey Heim Changes the Conversation + NASCAR’s Indy Debate

from Inside The Race

A Brickyard win. The bird heard ’round the world. A NASCAR superstar on the rise? Corey Heim conquered Indianapolis — but is this just the beginning of something much bigger? The Inside the Race crew breaks down Heim’s breakthrough victory, the moment that put him on NASCAR’s biggest stage, and why veteran crew chief Bootie Barker sees flashes of a young Jeff Gordon in the sport’s newest star. Steve Letarte, Kyle Petty and Matt Weaver dive into what separates Heim from NASCAR’s next generation, debate whether Indianapolis still deserves its place among the sport’s Crown Jewels, and break down the restart that sealed the victory with Todd Gordon. Plus, the crew discusses Carson Hocevar’s latest rivalry and examines how the charter system is shaping the future of driver development.
