Speed Street

Show Notes

It was another short oval master class from Josef Newgarden this past weekend in St. Louis. But not before attrition, rain and failed strategies. Conor Daly is back on Speed Street this week to discuss the action from Gateway. He joins producer Bobby to breakdown the wild start, Ganassi racing taking a gamble on the rain and the ferocious battle between Josef, Marcus Ericsson and Christian Rasmussen.

Race winner Josef Newgarden joins the show to recap his day and how he was able to race to the front at the end to secure his second victory of the season. He explains that Marcus Ericsson led the way for most of the race, but his Team Penske 2-crew helped get him track position in the last stint. The guys also talk about Josef's battle with Christian Rasmussen, his crash during the Indianapolis 500 and racing injured.
