Conor Daly and co-host Chase Holden report for duty on another edition of Speed Street where they fill listeners in on the driver evaluation tests taking place at Thermal Club this week. Conor explains the uniqueness of the test, which features only one full-time IndyCar racer, Louis Foster, among many outsiders like Logan Sargeant and Felipe Nasr. They also unpack the blockbuster news of Penske Entertainment buying the Long Beach Grand Prix, ensuring its place in the IndyCar stratosphere for years to come. Finally, Conor previews the upcoming Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix where he will be serving as a commentator for the second year in a row. 

2024 IndyNXT Champion Louis Foster stops by the show to discuss his family history in racing and his recent signing with Rahal Letterman Lanigan for the 2025 IndyCar season. Louis explains after finding success in karts and the Ginetta Junior Championship, he ventured into the world of single seater racing through the Formula ladder, competing in the British F4 and F3 championships. He would leave Euroformula racing for the United States where he began on the Road to Indy, to which he credits most of his racing success. He fills listeners in on how his deal with RLL came to be, and how he is excited to lean on veteran Graham Rahal as a resource next season. The guys also discuss life away from the track, Louis’ quick adaptation to oval racing and the ever burning question of how to improve the IndyCar Series.
