213 - Winner 77 - Felix Rosenqvist Captures the 110th Indianapolis 500

About this episode

Felix Rosenqvist discusses his victory at the 110th Indianapolis 500 and the race dynamics with host Conor Daly.

It was the closest finish in Indianapolis 500 history as Felix Rosenqvist overtook David Malukas in a last straightaway dash this past Sunday. But before that, our resident open wheeler Conor Daly was in the mix, leading laps and trading the top position with the likes of Alex Palou, Scott McLaughlin and Malukas. Conor fills Speed Street listeners in on how his race played out, and how ultimately pit strategies left him mired in traffic for the final restarts. Race winner Felix Rosenqvist joins the show to chat about his media week so far, and how the race unfolded from his vantage point. Felix admits that it all still hasn't sunk in yet, but hopes to be able to continue his momentum and take the fight to points leader Alex Palou down the stretch of the 2026 season.
