Episode Description
Joey Logano and Scott Dixon break down the differences between NASCAR and INDYCAR, the challenges of crossover racing, and what it means for drivers and fans ahead of a major doubleheader event in the desert. On this episode of SPEED With Harvick and Buxton, Kevin Harvick hosts a roundtable conversation with Logano and Dixon discussing how the two series compare in driving style and culture, which discipline presents the steeper learning curve, Dixon’s interest in potentially trying NASCAR in the future, Logano’s perspective on specialization in modern racing, how elite drivers balance strong teammates like Alex Palou and Ryan Blaney, and why events that bring NASCAR and INDYCAR together are ultimately a win for fans of motorsports.
