Episode #156: There’s Only One… Bobby Wickens

A sombre weekend to reflect on for Motorsport101 this week, as Chris DeHarde comes in for Dre as IndyCar was hit with a massive accident as Pocono which has left Robert Wickens (At time of upload), facing surgery on his spinal cord, two broken ankles and a broken arm. We all wish him the very best.

It was a race that ended with Alex Rossi completely dominating, Will Power the only man in the same postcode throughout the 500 miles, with only 5 men on the lead lap by the end.

We also preview the Belgian GP this weekend for F1 and some of the moves and shakers as Carlos Sainz, and Pierre Gasly were confirmed at new teams for 2019!

We also talk the WEC with a shock double DQ for Toyota at the Silverstone 6 hours, BIGM8 winning over in IMSA at Virginia, and RJ on why the Suzuka 10 hours, is still really good, even if it isn’t 1000km anymore.

Enjoy, and of course… Get Well, Bobby Wickens.
