A wet qualifying made for a jumbled order, but even in the dry the Toronto IndyCar street race provided plenty of talking points for this week’s episode of The Race IndyCar Podcast, including a maiden win for Christian Lundgaard.Can Lundgaard now be considered one of IndyCar's elite drivers? And how much will the momentum from this win impact his peaky Rahal Letterman Lanigan team? Those are two questions expertly answered by Indy Lights champion, Indy 500 regular and our co-hoist JR Hildebrand.JR and co-host Jack Benyon also analyse Alex Palou’s 15th-to-second drive through the field, and bring listeners up to speed on the latest silly season rumours - including how Palou represents 'the cork in the bottle'.The guys also discuss how Tom Blomqvist faired on his maiden IndyCar weekend after being thrown in at the deep end, and preview the Iowa double header, debating whether track specialist Josef Newgarden might use the event to erode Palou’s championship advantage.Follow The Race on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookCheck out our latest videos on YouTubeDownload our app on iOS or Android Hosted on Acast.
