Episode Details

As the IndyCar season rolls to its midway point and prepares for the introduction of the new hybrid system, Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden are back on Speed Street with all the latest news. This past weekend saw the IndyCar paddock take on the famed Laguna Seca Raceway and friend of the show Alex Palou once again found victory lane. Conor and Chase recap all the action, which included some teammate beef, off-roading, uncharacteristic Penske struggles and a whole slew of penalties. They also discuss how David Malukas and Nolan Siegel fared in their returns to IndyCar action and how NASCAR’s rain delay in New Hampshire ultimately affected IndyCar’s weekend ratings return.

Race winner Alex Palou joins the show to discuss how he returned to victory lane for the third time this season after capturing the pole position. Conor asks how Alex managed to stay in front on the late restarts and hold off charges from Colton Herta and the rest of the field. Chase inquires if Alex has had any off-road moments at Laguna Seca in the simulator and how he’s feeling about his chances at the upcoming oval races. They also chat about Alex’s Indianapolis 500 performance and the upcoming debut of the hybrid system at Mid-Ohio. Finally, the guys ask if Alex would consider a new victory lane celebration and how he is enjoying fatherhood.
