"Two Idiots Talking Racing... and Stuff" sounds like a fitting tagline for this show, isn't it? Today on F-R Racing's Garage Talk we officially adopt that as the tagline for the show. What started as a quick and serious show evolved into what you see and listen to on a weekly basis so we felt it was time to start updating the branding to match the show.

We kick off the show this week discussing the latest in iRacing including Erik's surprisingly good performance at Lime Rock Park, D.J. having to switch to the booth last minute, and the upcoming schedule (including our all new Bottom Split Racing Series beginning on June 23rd! If you're wanting to break into oval racing or just struggle on ovals, we're the development league for you! $10 broadcast fee gets you into 8 races every other Monday at 10pm ET.

On the second half of the show we discuss a racing weekend full of drama including Alex Palou being wrecked out at Detroit, McLaughin vs Siegel, and Louie Foster's suspension breaking.

We move on and discuss week 2 of NASCAR on Amazon Prime Video and the increasing uproar of older fans threatening to never watch NASCAR again over the move, how the broadcasts are going and the drama between Carson Hocevar and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Finally, we discuss the Max Verstappen's incident with George Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix and the hilarious Internet theory on why Max purposely tried to get himself suspended for the Canadian Grand Prix (it involves Le Mans).

On this week's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk, we give a brief mention to the F1 Monaco "race", because that's all it deserves, one of the weirder Indy 500's we've ever seen, and the first NASCAR race on Amazon Prime Video.First up, we talk about the F1 Monaco Grand Prix and as expected it was a parade with no on track passing, and the required two pit stop strategy didn't work out.

Next, and the bulk of the show we talk about the Indianapolis 500 from the pre-race helicopter flyover, Scott McLaughin's pace lap crash warming his tires, numerous incidents on pit road, timing and scoring issues at the track, and the botched coverage of the finish.

Finally, we talk about the Coca Cola 600 and Amazon Prime Video's approach to covering the event and how it varied tremendously from what FOX did. Are we going to be spoiled by the month of race coverage?
