Welcome to the Marshall Pruitt podcast and your week in IndyCar listener Q&A still have over a week to go until we get rolling again at Long Beach.

But indeed, oh boy, so thankful to have had the ability to downshift after five straight weekends of racing dear friends for those being IndyCar

weekends, one of them being IMSA, the mobile one 12 hours of seabring, but nonetheless,

really awesome to not have a motor race to cover last weekend or this one.

Granted, I do this for a living and I've done it for a long, long time.

So for those of you who just simply love racing and it's your number one favorite thing

in life, you're probably saying, moron, I wish there was a sixth week and a seventh and

why would you want a break?

So I totally get it.

Nonetheless, thanks to so many of y'all for the really awesome questions you sent in,

all gathered by our super extra pal, Jerry Sudeth, in his wife, Aaron, and who put them together for us.

So just big thanks to y'all.

I decided to sit on the questions that came in coming

out of Barber and do them here at the start of this week, recording this on a Monday at about

6.15 p.m. Why did I wait? To be honest, I just wanted to fill the time a little bit. So I'm going to

jump into your questions here in a moment.
