Phil and Josh return for Episode 65 of the GSP to discuss a busy week of motorsports action.  IndyCars at Detroit saw Marcus Ericcson and Pato O’Ward go to victory lane and take a dive into the fountain while Felix Rosenqvist suffered a horrendous crash.  The guys go over the winners and the issues for Penske which prevented both Will Power and Josef Newgarden from taking a double at The Captain’s home race. 

NASCAR ran at Texas with the All-Star debacle dominated by Larson and Hendrick Motorsports.  Kyle Busch wins his 99th XFinity race and John Hunter Nemechek continues his dominance in the Truck Series.  SRX debuted with six-time NASCAR Modified Tour Champion Doug Coby missing a tour race to win at Stafford Springs.  Phil and Josh discuss the racing and the broadcast presentation by CBS in their return to major motorsports coverage in the US.

The Roundup features MotoGP/Moto2, Supercars, Formula E, WEC, IMSA, Indy Lights, BTCC, and WSBK action before the guys preview Paul Ricard for F1, Road America for IndyCar, and NASCAR at Nashville Superspeedway.  Josh discusses his exploits in the Firecracker 400 qualifying on iRacing in his Sim Segment before we call it a day.
