Speed Street

Christian Lundgaard might have parked his car in victory lane this past weekend at Road America, but he had an epic journey to get there. Our resident open wheeler Conor Day was in Elkhart Lake taking in the action, and he's back on Speed Street this week to recap the race. He and Producer Bobby discuss Christian's lap one contact with Scott Dixon, his heroic drive through the field, Alex Palou's pit road trouble and Marcus Armstrong's tragic engine failure. Also, silly season is ramping up as Felix Rosenqvist announces that he won't be returning to Meyer Shank Racing in 2027.

Road America's runner-up finisher David Malukas joins the show to speak on his great performance in 2026 and his time so far with Team Penske. David reflects on a difficult second place finish at this year's Indianapolis 500, and how he's learning a lot from his Penske teammates Josef Newgarden and Scott McLaughlin. Finally, David looks ahead to the rest of the year and what he can do to continue his strong performance and chase down Alex Palou for the championship.

It's time for the IndyCar Series to return to beloved Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. The Speed Street gang is back with everything you need to know about Road America this coming weekend.

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.

It felt like we were short track racing on a street course this past weekend in Detroit. Conor Daly returns to Speed Street this week to join Producer Bobby in recapping the recent IndyCar Detroit Grand Prix. Despite another Alex Palou victory, we saw a lot of compelling action throughout the field, including an on-track brawl between former Penske teammates Scott McLaughlin and Will Power. There was a moment when it looked like Kyle Kirkwood had the goods to win, but an unfortunate caution played in the favor of the Palou 10-team allowing him to stretch out to victory in the late stages of the race.

Seventh place finisher Louis Foster joins the show to talk about Rahal Letterman Lanigan's steady improvement this season, and how the race officials' quick decisions on yellows in Detroit had several drivers annoyed. They also discuss the Month of May and what Louis is looking forward to on the horizon of the rest of the season.

It was the closest finish in Indianapolis 500 history as Felix Rosenqvist overtook David Malukas in a last straightaway dash this past Sunday. But before that, our resident open wheeler Conor Daly was in the mix, leading laps and trading the top position with the likes of Alex Palou, Scott McLaughlin and Malukas. Conor fills Speed Street listeners in on how his race played out, and how ultimately pit strategies left him mired in traffic for the final restarts. 

Race winner Felix Rosenqvist joins the show to chat about his media week so far, and how the race unfolded from his vantage point. Felix admits that it all still hasn't sunk in yet, but hopes to be able to continue his momentum and take the fight to points leader Alex Palou down the stretch of the 2026 season.
