Lewis Hamilton gets 6th championship, Bottas wins US GP, IndyCar news and the Autoweek Fleet




The Autoweek Podcast show

Summary: In this episode of the “Autoweek Podcast,” the Autoweek team is joined by its Formula 1 correspondent Joe Saward to talk about the 2019 U.S. Grand Prix. Saward joins Robin Warner, Mike Pryson and Wesley Wren to talk about the race and Lewis Hamilton’s second-place finish, which netted him the 2019 drivers’ championship. Saward also dives into the 2021 regulations, the problems Ferrari faced at the USGP and what to look forward to in F1. After Saward, Mike and crew talk about the news in IndyCar—yes, the Penske acquisition of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the entire IndyCar series. Wesley gives some advice about Speedway, Indiana, and gives Penske some advice about how to connect IndyCar and NASCAR at the Indy GP. Closing the motorsports section, Matt Weaver calls in ahead of the NASCAR race in Phoenix. Wrapping the show, Graham Kozak and Andrew Stoy join Wesley to talk about the Autoweek Fleet. The gang run through the cars currently stowed away in Autoweek Tower but highlight two: the 2020 Nissan Versa and the 2020 Mercedes-AMG GLC 63. Music: “Well, at least I’m not vaping,” by Summerbruise
