“If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough”
As a race car driver, you have to maintain a balance at the edge of what your car is capable of doing. You must remain fully focused when approaching corners at 240 MPH.
It's pushing and respecting the limit simultaneously, knowing that it's not only the victory that’s on the line; it’s also your life. While the technology and safety guidelines have improved drastically over the years, racing still remains a limit-pushing, adrenaline-fueled sport.
In this episode, Ed Bernardon interviews Mario Andretti, one of the greatest race car drivers in history. He is the only driver to have won the Daytona 500, the Indianapolis 500, and a Formula One championship. Mario was knighted in his native Italy, and GQ Magazine named him one of the 25 Coolest Athletes of all time. Today, he’ll share with us what it takes to be a successful race car driver. He’ll also help us understand the contributions that racing has made to the automotive industry.
