It’s almost time for one of the biggest single races in Motorsport, the 2024 Indy 500, with over 300,000 expected to flock to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday for “The greatest spectacle in racing”.
Joining Steph Wentworth on the Autosport Podcast are Motorsport.com’s Global Editor-In-Chief Charles Bradley, and IndyCar Editor Joey Barnes to cover a wide-range of topics, such as asking if Penske are set to dominate the race after their first front row lockout of the race since 1988, with Scott McLaughlin making history with the fastest pole position run ever seen at the speedway (234.220mph), with Will Power and Josef Newgarden sharing that front row.
There’s also discussion on McLaren as the potential top contenders to challenge Penske, whether Helio Castroneves can become the 500's first five-time winner, the drama of bump day as Dale Coyne Racing’s Nolan Siegel was bumped from the field in qualifying, and a full interview with Marcus Ericsson to discuss his own dramatic week with a crash and “Bump Day” appearance and ponder what the 2022 winner and 2023 runner-up can do from 32nd on the grid.
