99 - Another Domino Falls: A.J. Foyt Racing Driver Benjamin Pedersen & RLL and ECR's Big Driver Signings

Two big silly season questions have been answered this past week and Conor Daly and producer Ben Walton are here to break it down on Speed Street. The guys talk about Rahal Letterman Lanigan’s unexpected announcement signing Pietro Fittipaldi, Ed Carpenter Racing signing the reigning Indy NXT Series champion Christian Rasmussen, their thoughts on Kyle Larson’s pit road wreck during the NASCAR Cup Series race at Homestead, an intriguing article about the worst places to go for a first date, and Andretti’s huge step towards building their F1 team.

Then, they talk with A.J. Foyt Racing driver Benjamin Pedersen about his transition from Indy NXT to IndyCar, the difficulties of competing with the top teams while driving for a smaller one, why A.J. Foyt Racing was so good on the ovals this year, what he’s learned from working with Michael Cannon, and how the team has already benefitted from their new partnership with Team Penske.
