On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Zak Brown, former driver & current CEO of McLaren Racing. JB starts with his takeaways from the Chinese Grand Prix, the first in five years at the Shanghai International Circuit. Max Verstappen swept both the Sprint Race and Grand Prix, but there were plenty of juicy storylines unfolding in his rearview mirror. Lando Norris continued his climb up the driver standings with a strong P2 performance, Mercedes’ struggles deepened worries about Lewis Hamilton’s transition to Ferrari and Lance Stroll created chaos with a comical miscue during a restart.

Zak explains how McLaren has closed the gap on Red Bull sooner than expected, and how both of his young drivers have embraced the long-term vision of the program. He also comments on Ferrari & Mercedes’ lame duck drivers and how their frustrations will magnify when information on next year’s cars begins circulating. We also preview next weekend’s Miami GP, which has become a spectacle in itself, and how McLaren’s pending upgrades could impact their performance on a track known for its slick surface.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Dale Earnhardt Jr., NASCAR Hall of Fame Driver, to the show. Justin recaps the Japanese GP, where Max Verstappen rebounded from a DNF to sweep the events at Suzuka. It appears Ferrari has distanced themselves from the rest of the pack to close ground on the Red Bulls. Justin also gives his take on Yuki Tsunoda's points finish at his home track, Danny Ricciardo's terrible start to the season and Mercedes' sudden complacency to fall behind the McLarens.

Dale Jr. comments on Verstappen's current run of 20 victories in 22 races, and urges Formula 1 fans to appreciate the greatness we are witnessing. Why don't race fans embrace greatness like they have in past decades? He draws several parallels between the worlds of NASCAR & F1, and thinks commitments to evolving technology will only continue to grow the popularity of both sports. Plus, we get some candid answers to our Mobil1 Pit Stop feature to close out the conversation!
