This week on The Fan Midday Show we’ll be talking with a number of drivers preparing for Sunday’s 107th Running of the Indianapolis 500.
Thursday on The Fan Midday Show we spoke with two veteran drivers in Josef Newgarden and Conor Daly who are looking to earn their first Indy 500 victory for Team Penske and Ed Carpenter Racing respectively.
During our conversation with Josef Newgarden he talked with us about:
- what kind of milk he’d drink if he wins the Indy 500
- his overall thoughts on the 100 Days to Indy docuseries on the CW
- where he feels that he, his team, and his car is ahead of Sunday’s 107th Running of the Indy 500
- why fans should pick him to win on Sunday
- how he performed in the pickleball tournament out at IMS among fellow drivers
Later, we spoke with Conor Daly of Ed Carpenter Racing who is making his 10th Indy 500 appearance.

Over the course of the interview Conor discussed:
- what his team is most focused on for Carb Day tomorrow
- how much support he gets each year as a local kid trying to win this race
- what it’s like to drive for fellow Indy native (and fellow driver) Ed Carpenter
- why fans should back him to win the Indy 500
- if any revenge plans are in the works after Alexander Rossi and Sage Karam filled his hot tub with 1.75 million orbeez last year
