Episode #42: Oh Say Can You Rossi
Jun 03, 2016, 03:51 PM
(NOTE: This was recorded on May 31st, before the passing of Luis Salom. Obviously, we'll address it on next week's show, but for now, on behalf of all of us, our thoughts and prayers are with the Salom family, his loved ones, and his team.)
Murica. Fuck yeah. Alexander Rossi takes the 100th Indy 500, and he was 250-1 to win in a shocking final lap fuel dash against Carlos Munoz and Josef Newgarden. We break it all down, and a shoutout to the first lady of #Motorsport101, Sarah Connors, the world's biggest Rossi fan!
We also talk about the Monaco GP, as Daniel Ricciardo had a win ripped out from underneath him as Red Bull botch a stop and Lewis Hamilton takes his first Monaco win since 2008, as Rosberg struggles, and Sergio Perez continues his knack of finding the podium.
We also talk all the extra news, including the difficult topics of Jules Bianchi's family suing Marussia, the FIA and Formula 1 groups after labelling his death "avoidable", the news that Adam Cooper allegedly committed sexual harassment to a fan online, the confirmation of the Halo and Aeroscreen being used in F1 from 2017, and we talk about the first episode of Top Gear's return. That's a fact.
And we're joined by friend of the show and brilliant YouTube personality Christoper Cook from CookProductions1/2. Find him at http://www.youtube.com/CookProductions1 and enjoy the show!
