Off Track with Hinch and Rossi

Off Track with Hinch and Rossi

A look into the lives of professional IndyCar drivers, reality television stars, and best friends James Hinchcliffe and Alexander Rossi. Though Hinch and Rossi have seen plenty of success on the track, the show is meant to highlight their off-the-track lives, including their unfiltered opinions on what’s trending in popular culture. Off Track is at its heart a sports show, but Hinch and Rossi are well-versed in popular culture and have experience relating to influential figures across a variety of disciplines. The interviews consist of athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs -- really anyone with a passion for what they do, regardless of what that is.

Hinch and Rossi take us through that latest race, the Indy GP, going into detail about Alex's race, and Palou's dominance.

Alex was pleasantly surprised by the hybrids in the test at IMS, but there are still some issues to work through, plus it's race week, not Tim's -no one cares about that one- but Barber. All that, plus Alex had another squirrel in his place, and apparently Brunner is a Houdini-Doodle, or Houdoodle, if you will.

The guys keep losing -or laundering- their AirPods. Drivers need to learn to trust their teams when they're on the track. Hinch had a good time at Suzuka, even though the race was boring, and Long Beach was coming up. So, don't forget to tune in. On multiple TVs. And your neighbor's TVs.

Hinch can't make it, until he can, but at least he's really tired and has bad internet (in Japan somehow). Alex breaks down his weekend and the positives he can take away from it, while fully dodging any conversation about pineapple on pizza. Hinch takes us behind the scenes on the power outage, and the guys talk about why Thermal has a bad rap.
