Indy's New Car and Maverick Done With KTM? - The Filler Episode

Okay, like One-Piece, consider this one a filler episode. With no major Motorsport from the series we usually cover, we decided to do a catch-up episode where we dabble in some series we cover elsewhere, as well as two larger stories, as RJ catches up with Dre on Super GT and Igor Fraga's hellacious backflip at Fuji Speedway, and a messy IMSA 6 Hours of Road America as Kevin Estre and Jack Aitken made headlines for all the wrong reasons. 

Then we tackle the IR-28, IndyCar's new machine that will be taking to the track officially for 2028, but had a successful first test at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with Alex Rossi and Alex Palou behind the wheel. A lot of big promises on the table for the new car, including better weight distribution, a bigger cockpit, a much larger hybrid battery, the cars being 100 pounds lighter. But will it improve the racing for the series?

Next up, the latest falling out at KTM as Maverick Vinales had to deny reports he was on the brink of an early culling from the team after his recent war of words with his team bosses and the likely end of his MotoGP career at the end of 2026 regardless. Is this another KTM mis-management, another Mav meltdown, or something inbetween?

That and more on the potential of F1 Sprints, in a heaped filler episode of M101!
