What a weekend of racing last weekend was!! Indycar has crowned their Champion in Alex Palou! We’re so excited to cover more of the Championship in 2025!! Also in this episode, the door for a Championship fight between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris has creeped just that little bit more open. Tempers flared during qualifying and the race as both Hamilton and Norris would have to start out of their normal positions. Tune into this episode of Basement Brakes as we break down the weekend from our perspective!! #indycar #f1 #motorsport #racing #basementbrakes

A remote episode but that wont stop us talking about the SHOW Ferrari put on for Formula 1 fans in Monza this past weekend. A track known for speed, all eyes were on the Championship leaders, Max Verstappen and Lando Norris. Little did the fans know that Ferrari would show up with the strategy needed to win on a track that seemed to have the entire grid guessing! Tune into this episode of Basement Brakes as we nestle down into this past weekend's Formula 1 race at the Temple of Speed!!

Two races this weekend and two interesting Championship fights! In F1 we saw Lando Norris driving just under the level that we were used to before the break. With 10 races left heading into this weekend Lando came out SWINGING and looked like a completely reset driver. Red Bull have still not answered the quick McLaren!! Over in IndyCar we have a 3-way championship fight and headed into this past weekend with four races left. With Alex Palou leading the Championship and Will Power & Colton Herta chasing behind the only way to make this interesting is... 3 ovals to end the year?? Tune into this episode of Basement Brakes as Foster and Stephen get into F1 at Zandvoort, IndyCar in Portland, and even talk about upgrading our very own Simulator!

We're back from Summer Break and INDYCAR kicked off their last races in St. Louis!! After a dominating qualifying by Penske and Championship leader Alex Palou starting in the midfield, this race was bound to be a classic from the first Green Flag. And it DIDNT DISSAPOINT!! Tune into this episode of Basement Brakes as Foster and Stephen talk about all their favorite moments from the 2024 Bommarito Automotive Group 500!!#INDYCAR #motorsport #racing #BasementBrakes

Another episode of Basement Brakes and this past weekend was one of the most anticipated tracks of the Formula 1 calendar, SPA!!! With some pre-race penalties we knew that Max Verstappen would have to pass half the grid to see the podium. We also knew Mercedes came bearing some (what they thought were) upgrades heading into the weekend. What we didn't know was the show we weren't prepared for that went down to the WIRE (and possibly a little bit after the wire lol) Tune into our last race review before the summer break!! And don't worry, we'll be posting weekly during the break so we don't go crazy without races to cover. #formula1 #f1 #motorsport #belgiangp #georgerussel #lewishamilton #oscarpiastri

Well well well we knew this weekend was going to have some action in store for both INDYCAR and Formula 1... We didn't think a team would dominate both races this handedly!! In this episode we talk about INDYCAR in Toronto and Formula 1 in Hungary but dial in on how the winning teams of the weekend handled their 1-2 finishes a bit differently, creating much different reactions from the drivers. Tune in!! #formula1 #indycar #streetsoftoronto #hungariangp

Well our new fandom of INDYCAR is already showing... We had no idea they had TWO RACES this past weekend. Our first time watching Iowa and the weekend did not disappoint! Tune into this episode of Basement Brakes and join us in reflecting on INDYCAR's first Oval Racetrack with the new Power Unit in full force. From pitstops creating winners to a last lap crash, these two races were packed with action!!
