There’s been a dozen different winners this year … not sure anything needs to change does it? Keeping an eye and an open mind to refining is always important for any series but 12 different winners is something to be proud of.

@leighdiffey Curious to know. What would you like to see change in nascar? Car? Track? Playoff system? Allstar?.

Of course! I called MotoGP for many years … my oldest friend in life @DB_Adventures was world #2 and our mate @micksdoohan is a 5x world champion and my first commentary partner was 2x World Champion Barry Sheene. It’s been a major part of my life/career. Marquez is magic 👌.

@leighdiffey From a broadcaster perspective, how do you keep people interested when the championship is pretty much over before the finale? As an IndyCar fan I will watch every race, but I can see viewership drop once Palou officially wins as the races seemingly don't matter at that point.
