Ep. 171 | Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Published: May 24, 2021, 5 a.m.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. is bouncing around the playoff bubble and he\u2019s here to assess where JTG Daugherty is going into the summer. We also go into whether being a part of the playoff conversation is good enough; the thought process of building something with a race team; what he\u2019s seen from year one to year two with the team; how much crew chief Brian Pattie takes the reins versus Stenhouse\u2019s input, and how it\u2019s changed this year; adapting to a Chevrolet body and chassis after so many years running with Ford; how two different aero packages change a driving style; why there is a disconnect between what racing drivers like and the fans like; what people don\u2019t understand about his \u201caggressive\u201d driving style; the uniqueness of switching mentalities of showing up and racing versus weekends where this is practice.
