S4E29: Should Stage Yellows Stay or Go? Should RCR Bring in Keselowski? Bathurst 1000 might be the best finish of 2026. Oct 14, 2026

Show notes

Bathurst’s final six laps delivered a fuel gamble gone wrong, a dramatic fight to the finish, and a win for Brodie Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood. Parker Kligerman and Josh Mendoza relive the epic Supercars finale, then dig into NASCAR’s razor-close O’Reilly Series title race, where four drivers sit within 15 points and Talladega could change everything. They also weigh Brad Keselowski’s possible next move—including a seat at Richard Childress Racing or a Dodge return—and discuss why NASCAR may be losing ground to F1 in the culture spotlight. Plus: Max Verstappen’s Singapore win and the moving tribute to Kyle Busch.
