We are back with another episode of our short form interview series catching up with.

Spent about 15 minutes with Romag-Grochon on Tuesday, the world's newest NTT IndyCar

series driver.

He'll be doing 13 races in total for Rick Ware Racing, new co-entrant with Dale Coin Racing doing all the road and

street courses in the number 51 Honda really enjoyed first interview with Romain you can hear for

sure there's a lot of energy a lot of enthusiasm inside of this 34 year old Frenchold Frenchman, this new challenge in front of him.

Basically, everywhere he's going to go will be a first-time visit.

A lot to learn.

Not a lot of time to learn it.

That's one of the things we speak about as well.

And hey, he's here.

We've known he's going to be here for a long time, but glad that it's finally out in the open and confirmed.

And I hope you enjoy the conversation we had here on the Marshall Proop podcast,

brought to you by Cooper Tires,

the Justice Brothers in Toronto, motorsports.com.

Coming off of a rather insane 2020 season, Rom you had options you had choices on what to do

want to do the road and street courses maybe ovals in, who knows, but what led you here instead of

somewhere else? Well, you know, if there's one thing that my accident teach me, is that I want to

have the choice to decide what I want to do, and that life can be short. So, you know, I looked at

all the options, the championship, and, you know, initially, am I going to go racing or not?

And very quickly, I wanted to go racing.
