Driver Interviews 2025 Part 1
About this episode
The podcast features candid interviews with IndyCar drivers Colton Herta, Alex Rossi, Felix Rosenqvist, Kyle Larson, Elio Castroneves, and Marcus Ericsson during the intense month of May leading up to the Indy 500. They discuss challenges with car setups, the impact of the hybrid system, qualifying pressures, race strategies, and personal anecdotes including family life and team ownership. Highlights include Colton’s quick car rebuild after a crash, Felix’s music collaborations, Kyle’s double racing efforts, Elio’s team ownership insights, and Marcus’s steady approach. The conversations reveal the mental and technical complexities of IndyCar racing and the unique atmosphere of the month.
It's Media Day at IMS, so SiriusXM had Hinch sit down and chat with a lot of the drivers. In Part 1, he was joined by Colton Herta, Alex Rossi, Felix Rosenqvist, Kyle Larson, Helio Castroneves, Marcus Ericsson, and Kyle Kirkwood.
