On this episode of SPEED with Harvick and Buxton, we break down one of the most insane, unpredictable weekends in modern motorsport history.
NASCAR completely rewrote the playbook by building a temporary, 16-turn street circuit inside Naval Base Coronado, and the inaugural Anduril 250 delivered pure chaos. 23-year-old phenom Corey Heim stunned the garage to capture his first career Cup Series victory for 23XI Racing after a late-race battle with teammate Tyler Reddick. Plus, we break down the explosive on-track and pit-lane feud between Noah Gragson and former F1 vet Kevin Magnussen, Shane van Gisbergen's heartbreak, and how the Cup Series championship fight has narrowed to a razor-thin 8 points between Reddick and Denny Hamlin heading into Sonoma.
The drama didn't stop in San Diego. The boys dive into an unforgettable weekend at Road America, where Christian Lundgaard pulled off a miracle—charging from dead last on lap one to inherit a stunning IndyCar victory for Arrow McLaren. We also look at Alex Palou's pit-lane heartbreak, the dramatic tire disqualification in Indy NXT, and a horrifying catch-fence flip in the USF2000 Championship.
Plus, full coverage of a wild international slate:
MotoGP: Marc Marquez throws himself back into the title hunt with a tactical masterclass in Czechia, while championship leader Marco Bezzecchi receives a weekend ban after an aggressive physical altercation with a track marshal.
Pikes Peak: Romain Dumas claims ultimate redemption and "King of the Mountain" honors in the all-electric Ford Super Mustang Mach-E, while we send our best wishes to Patrick Culligan after a frightening high-speed crash.
Supercars & Formula E: Cam Waters conquers the Darwin Triple Crown, and Jake Dennis controls a red-flagged thriller in the Sanya E-Prix.
Short Track & Dirt: David Gravel pockets a staggering $300,000 at the Huset’s High Bank Nationals, Max Reaves breaks through in ARCA, and Connor Hall extends his flawless win streak to eight at Langley Speedway.
We wrap up the show by crowning our Driver of the Week nominees and looking ahead to a packed calendar featuring F1 in Austria, NASCAR at Sonoma, and IMSA's iconic Six Hours of The Glen!
