Dre, RJ and King are back with a deep dive on Valtteri Bottas’ Baku victory, a chaotic wet race in Formula E, the first of its kind, and we break into hysterics over NASCAR and what gets left at a race track. We also start solemnly over the 25th anniversary of the tragic weekend of Imola 94′. Here’s the full list:
