The Indy 500 Used to Be an F1 Race?!

Alanis, Elizabeth, and Nolan talk about a particularly major sporting event coming up – the Indy 500! Held on the same day as the Monaco Grand Prix, they go over the race’s history as a Formula One event, and how and why that changed. Then they walk us through the circuit at Imola in preparation for next week’s race (which at the time of this recording, was still happening). And, sidebar, do you think Enzo Ferrari would like ANY of us?
