MP 931: The Week In IndyCar, Aug 31, Listener Q&A

<p>It's the first of a two-part World Wide Technology Raceway doubleheader wrap-up episode of the Week In IndyCar Listener Q&A show as we dive into a bunch of questions submitted via social media. </p> <p>A sampling of the items posed this week (Q&A begins at the 8m31s mark in the episode):</p> <p>"Michael Andretti seemed especially mad at Zach Veach after he piled into that race 1 crash. Have you heard anything about Zach’s chances of staying at Andretti? If he leaves, who gets that seat? Hinch? Conor Daly? Kevin Magnussen? Scott Tucker?"</p> <p>"I saw that Dave Furst is the new VP Of Communications for IndyCar. This seems to be a bit of a revolving door position with Curt Cavin and Mike Zizzo having the job the past couple of years and Zizzo in the role for a short time. Any insight on this?"</p> <p>"Do you think RHR & Colton Herta are justified in their frustrations with RVK? Is he angering other members of the paddock as well, or just the Andretti Autosport duo?"</p> <p>"It seems like I notice articles on Racer.com reporting NASCAR teams failing post race tech and associated penalties issued at a much higher rate than IndyCar. Any reason to the seemingly perfect tech inspection record by IndyCar teams, is it under-reported or are penalties dished out in a hushed manner? Also, what's the best instance of bending the rules or fooling tech inspectors you ever saw?"</p> <p>Subscribe: <a href='https://marshallpruettpodcast.com/subscribe'>https://marshallpruettpodcast.com/subscribe</a></p> <p>Join our Facebook Group: <a href='https://www.facebook.com/MarshallPruettPodcast'>https://www.facebook.com/MarshallPruettPodcast</a></p>
