    Mar 19 2025
    Two stars of IndyCar’s season opener join this week’s episode of The Race IndyCar Podcast, with Christian Lundgaard and Will Buxton joining the show. There was plenty of talk surrounding Lundgaard and what he’d be able to achieve entering a McLaren team built around Pato O’Ward, and he discussing that and the expectation he placed on himself before his eighth-place finish which was basically the worst result possible in a weekend that could have been even better. He discusses his affinity with Barber after a recent test and his transformation there in 2023, plus how the epic first weekend impacts his season expectations. Buxton joins off the back of making his debut as Fox’s lead commentator for the IndyCar Series.

  • IndyCar promises new era as 2025 kicks off in St Pete

    IndyCar promises new era as 2025 kicks off in St Pete
    Feb 28 2025
    The Race IndyCar Podcast is back to preview the St Petersburg race which promises to start a new era of the championship and its future. Jack Benyon is joined by JR Hildebrand as they assess the impact of Fox Sports taking over the series’ TV coverage and the massive amount of additional promotion that’s allowed for. To help preview St Petersburg, Benyon asks Hildebrand to name who he thinks will win, who'll be on pole, who'll spring the biggest surprise, and which of the drivers who are absent he'd liked to have seen racing - which somehow spurs a tangent on Sebastien Bourdais!
