welcome to a quick weekend edition of the weekend indycar podcast here video fun

big thanks to y'all by the way a lot of y'all been subscribing helping me to try and grow

this i am not years late to podcasting this is now my 11th year of doing that, but really only

about two months into trying to do regular video podcasts. So just genuine thanks to so many

of y'all who have subscribed and continue to help grow this little channel here. So the reason

for a somewhat impromptu weekend off-season weekend episode

on Monday here at Sebring International Raceway, we have the entire field, the full-time field

for 2026 will be on track altogether for the very first time. Won't have Prema Racing there.

We'll talk about them in just a moment.

The inspiration to put this together and do this really comes from our friends at Dale Coin Racing.

So I don't know if the full 25 car field will be there, but we do indeed expect both cars

from Dale Coin Racing, and we do know that of those from Delecoigne racing.

And we do know that of those two cars, you're reigning, defending Indian XT champ Dennis

Hager will be in one of them. But who's going to be in the second?

And this is the question mark to cover off here to open. As of yesterday, Friday was on the phone with drivers who I would think would be

in that car. Only two candidates that I know of, Swiss-born Frenchman Romagrosha, who made his

IndyCar debut with coin. Conor Daly as well, former Dale Coin racing driver. Those are the only two

who I know to look for to be in that car.

As of yesterday, question marks as to who should be driving to Sebring to be in that car.

Called Dale, left a voicemail, didn't get a response.

It's a pretty common thing, so nothing out of the ordinary there but know that the cars are being sent from their illinois shop to seabring should be

arriving there shortly getting set up being ready to run monday tuesday could have Dennis drive both cars if need, right?
