Grip Strip Podcast Episode 30 - Mount O’Donnell, Mount Panorama and Title Time

Phil and Josh return for another episode of the GSP talking about the atrocious Kansas Cup race which saw Joey Logano win over Kevin Harvick and lock himself into the final four.  The "BAS" was emphasized along with other keys for why a faster car couldn't pass for 42 laps. 

Chase Briscoe wins his 9th XFinity race of 2020 and also gets announced as the driver of the 14 Cup car, bringing relief to one of of the hosts.  Brett Moffitt battles teammate Zane Smith late to get his first Truck Series win of 2020 and lock himself into Phoenix. 

 

In the GSP Roundup, Phil talks about SVG and Tander taking down the Bathurst 1000 in Holden's last official run on the mountain.  NHRA at Dallas sees points tighten in some of the pro categories while Petit Le Mans had argy bargy at the end.  Garrett Gerloff shines (for the most part) at Estoril in WSBK while Joe Roberts scores points at Aragon. 

 

Phil and Josh preview the IndyCar championship decider at St. Petersburg and whether Scott Dixon or Josef Newgarden will add to their championship tallies.  Keys for both are discussed along with other people who could stand in the way.  Formula 1 goes to Portugal for the first time since Jacques Villeneuve won in 1996 at Estoril with Lewis Hamilton trying to get win 92 and stand alone at the winningest F1 driver ever.  NASCAR races at Texas and its not going to be good...but we made picks anyway.
