The Pitlane Punters Podcast is back to debrief the Supercars Championship’s triumphant return to New Zealand at the Taupo Super400.
It was all action over the weekend, as the Kiwi fans were treated to two excellent 200 km races, highlighted by New Zealand’s own Andre Heimgartner winning on a wet and wild Saturday to cement his place in the history books.
The boys also throw their hats in the ring on the debate on whether or not a New Zealand doubleheader should be on Supercars’ priority list, and the Driver of the Year points get their latest update.
Whilst all eyes were on New Zealand in the Supercars world, two Kiwis stole the motorsport headlines in America over the weekend.
Shane van Gisbergen had a legitimate shot at victory in both NASCAR’s Xfinity and Cup Series’ at the fearsome Talladega, whilst Scott Dixon claimed an emotional win at IndyCar’s Long Beach Grand Prix days after the passing of Sir Colin Giltrap, one of Dixon’s key early backers.
All of that plus a look at the Chinese Grand Prix, where Max Verstappen continues to collect trophies like Monopoly properties, and Lance Stroll gave a new career a try…
Buckle up, it’s a wild ride on the latest Pitlane Punters Podcast.
