Speed Street

You know the competition in IndyCar is tough when a race win comes down to a bad pitstop. That's exactly what happened in Barber over the weekend, as the Arrow McLaren team came up short on Christian Lundgaard's final stop allowing Alex Palou to cruise to his second victory of the season. Conor Daly and Producer Bobby are back on Speed Street to break down the action of the race, and they're joined by podium finisher Graham Rahal to hear about his day and outlook on the 2026 season so far.
