Bahrain GP, Max Chilton interviewed and NASCAR season update




The Autoweek Podcast show

Summary: On this episode of the Autoweek Podcast, host Rory Carroll joins Mike Pryson, Wesley Wren and Jimmy Pelizzari to talk about a whole lot of racing. Tackling the NASCAR front, Matt Weaver calls in to talk about the state of the series and bring anyone up to speed who hasn’t been paying the closest attention to NASCAR this year. He also talks about the upcoming race schedule change and how it will affect certain tracks and the racing package as a whole.   After Weaver leaves, Rory receives breaking news: Tyler Reddick will drive a Chevrolet Camaro at the race at Bristol Motor Speedway with an incredibly cool Dolly Parton livery. From there, the guys dissect the F1 race at Bahrain and wax poetically about Charles Leclerc’s near-victory at the race. The team notes that Ferrari’s struggles from Australia seem to be ironed out -- or at least turned into new struggles.   From there, the show moves to an interview with IndyCar driver Max Chilton, who talks about the differences between F1 and IndyCar, the Month of May from a driver’s perspective and what it’s like being teammates with Fernando Alonso for the upcoming Indianapolis 500.
