The following is a production of Dirtymo Media.

All right, everybody, welcome back to another edition of The Teredown.

I'm welcome to George Bianchi.

We are motor sports writers for the athletic.

And today we're here to talk about the Phoenix race.

I'm here at Phoenix Raceway on a beautiful sunny day here in the desert.

And man, I tell you what, sometimes I know I'm the outlier because I'm too negative.

I feel like today I'm going to be the outlier because I'm going to be too positive

because I can see on social media that people are like, oh, those tires.

I'm shut up about the tires.

It was gimmick, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I freaking loved this race. I loved it all day. It was a gimmick, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I freaking loved this race.

I loved it all day.

I was super into it.

I was super engaged.

It was just very, very interesting to see the strategies.

I love trying to figure out what everybody was doing, what was going to happen, the length

of the runs, how far they could go, coming through the field.

I was just like, this is freaking awesome.

I know I can see it.

I can see it on social media right now.

People are like, oh, I don't want to this.
