This week's special bonus episode features former racer turned expert commentator Townsend Bell, who joins us to analyse the 2024 field as the build-up to the Greatest Spectacle in Motor Racing continues.
We discuss some observations from the month of May, including former Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin's pole position with a record-breaking run. We also consider the chances of Aussie Will Power drinking the winner’s milk again. Don't miss our shortcast in the Garage library with Will, which we dropped recently.
We cover other drivers from this part of the world, such as 2008 winner Scott Dixon, former Ferrari Academy driver Marcus Armstrong who is now with Chip Ganassi Racing, and Tom Blomqvist, the Daytona 24 Hour winner raised in Auckland.
We also delve into the Penske push to pass scandal and what rivals think about it. Plus, we share early impressions of Kyle Larson as he chases both the Indy 500 and the NASCAR race in Charlotte on the last weekend of the month.
Lastly, we talk about how Townsend, James Hinchcliffe, and our mate Leigh Diffey get through the big day on-air.
Plus, head to Rusty's Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and give us your feedback and let us know what you want to hear about on Rusty's Garage.
