Description

Cars are thundering (weather permitting, no pun intended) around Indianapolis Motor Speedway as Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden roll out a special edition of Speed Street. Conor gives listeners some insight on what is a very busy week at the historic speedway, as tens of thousands of spectators took in the solar eclipse ahead of a two-day open test for the Indianapolis 500. Conor also unveils the sponsorship details of his Dreyer Reinbold number-24 ride, which is a deal with blockchain support company Polkadot. 
After the break, the guys welcome Andretti Global IndyCar racer Colton Herta back to the show. He breaks down his strategy for the polarizing $1 Million Challenge at Thermal, and explains that with no points on the line he truly embraced a “dash for cash” race approach. The interview covers the Andretti team’s oval package, the prospect of racing against Kyle Larson and the rest of the races on the upcoming IndyCar schedule. Finally, Colton weighs in on the future of IndyCar and what improvements he feels the series can make to continue to progress.
