Will Buxton spent 25 years in the Formula One paddock. Now he's at Fox Sports calling IndyCar — and he's here to tell you why.
In this episode, Will explains the business logic behind his move, why Fox's boss personally pushed for IndyCar coverage, and how the series averaged the same US viewership as F1 last season.
He breaks down why IndyCar is the purest form of racing, what Bernie Ecclestone got wrong about young fans, why Drive to Survive can never be replicated, and the real financial engine behind F1's American expansion.
Will also reveal the untold Jeff Gordon-to-Formula One story, whether Colton Herta can actually make it, why Miami replaced Monaco as motorsport's deal-making capital, and name the most naturally gifted driver he's ever been around.
