HE WON IN MONACO, HE WINS IN MONZA (& Mi...

Hannah and Emma
About this episode

After 5 years, Charles Leclerc wins Ferrari's home race in Monza... We are head over heels happy for Charles, however this outcome does beg the question - how did he do it with the much faster McLarens behind him? A successful Ferrari strategy? A botched McLaren strategy? Should Oscar have overtaken Lando? All we know for sure is papaya rules... whatever that means.

We also recap both Indycar Milwaukee Mile races from this past weekend and look ahead to the season finale in Nashville. If you'll be in Nashville for the finale to watch the championship be decided, consider coming to hangout with us at Track Talk Live on Friday, September 13 at Barista Parlour. All of the details, and the link to RSVP are in our Instagram bio @tralktalk.pod

Big thank you to Kaitlin Tucci from FanAmp for joining the show very last minute in Emma's absence. If you heard her adorable puppy Willow during this episode, just know she really wanted to share her motorsport thoughts with you all.

OKAY LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH
