Love this! Pato is super likeable and humble, not just in this interview but in pretty much every one I’ve seen of his. Colton Herta and Pato both need their shots in F1 at some point, whether it’s with McLaren or someone else

They should jump at any chance to race at the highest level. Imagine being one of the first to at least be respected at that level.

Love it when Romain said “after that you have a good burger and a good beer and that’s a good day!” Well said.

Saw Pato at the Indy Toronto this past weekend. I was seating infront of the Maclaren pitstop, saw him walked immediately after the race to his teammate Felix after getting out his car to congratulate him on the first podium. Solid dude!

IndyCar has the worst marketing ever. Grosjean is actually doing what they should've been doing for a LONG time. By the way; thanks to Alonso and Grosjean IndyCar has become populair again.

True. As an European, I always thought oval races were boring until I saw Alonso debuting in the indy500 while missing the monaco GP (talking about boring races lol). Then I started following indy, and while it's true it is behind technically speaking, the racing is amazing, so much action on track.

for me mclaren is also a big factor. i follow some f1 teams on twitter and mclaren started reposting their indy stuff there, which made me take a closer look into the series. This is the first year i'm watching indy and i must say i really enjoy it so far, so thanks mclaren i guess

love Pato. he is hilarious and very wholesome two favourite indycar drivers right here

What a great interview. As a lifelong F1 fan who was introduced to Indy through Romain's move I'm really enjoying learning about the racing and the characters. Pato seems like a fantastic dude. I'd love to see him in F1, but that would be Indy's loss.

Amazing interview. I met Pato at Laguna Seca in the paddock. Really good kid and super talented driver. Would love to see him in F1 one day!

Would love to have him in F1! Seems like a good bloke and kickass driver!

Pato is from my home town, and we are of similar age. I like him, seeing him out there feels like seeing an old high school friend out in the world.

Listening to them talk about F1 cars really puts into perspective how fast they are, where even an Indycar driver is blown away says everything you need to know.

Great interview! It’s nice seeing competitors having a conversation about their passions.

I love to hear Pato impersonating the engine noises! 😆

Best interview thus far, Pato is so likable, I really hope he gets a shot in F1, he (and Colton) would be amazing in it

I love Pato Oward, the Mexican Irishman. Very, very funny interview of a very funny guy.

Side note seeing Indy drivers talk about F1 cars just makes me smile.... It's clearly everything they thought and then some!

Thank you Romain. I love your driver interviews but especially this one because Pato is my favorite driver :)

@@rulox1672 what can I say...I LOVE PATO!!!!!!! Adrian Fernandez was my first hero in indycar. Pato has since been my new found hero. Hope to see you at the races.

I’ve followed pato since before all the Red Bull, Indy lights and Japan journeys - it’s so great to see him settled at mclaren and in a winning car. interesting to see what zak is doing with so many drivers signed now…that’s my only worry for pato as just imagine how cool he and lando in f1 would be.

I have been watching IndyCar regularly for the first time since Nigel Mansell came over only because of Romain Grosjean. Lifelong F1 fan. Romain is doing a great job promoting IndyCar. Better than their marketing team!

Wow. I’ve always been a Herta fan, but the more you get to know so many of these guys, the more likable so many of them are. I really hope Herta makes it to F1, but I will be rooting for PatO to succeed. Seems like such an honest and humble guy.

Two of my favorite drivers in all of racing. Talent, guts, and cool guys. Thanks r8g and Patricio O! You're both world-class competitors and athletes, obviously, but in the end you both realize you're also entertainers, and you never give fans less than 100% to give us a great show, and reveal more of yourselves than most athletes performing at your level do, sharing with us who you truly as as human beings...no fake persona bulls***. And if you see that space, you're always going to try the move, because great overtakes is what racing is all about!

Great interview Romain. Despite a tough year at Andretti internally, very happy you're still having fun in IndyCar. As for Pato, great to hear his honest answers, especially about those 15 year-old F1 V10s when the cars weighed about 40 percent less than an IndyCar, and the incredible sound... fantastic!

Went to my first Indycar race last weekend (Toronto). What an experience! was a fun challenge trying to get panning shots of the drivers on the back straight, while getting peppered by flying rogue tire marbles xD Really surprised by the amount of access available, especially compared to the F1 paddock.

Next year, maybe buy a less expensive grandstand seat, but spend a little more on a pitlane paddock pass. You can enter the pits during FP1, 2 and 3 and qualifying, plus you get to walk the starting grid before the race. In F1 you would have to spend at least $10K or be a celebrity for that kind of access!

F1 will never be as open as other series due to the proprietary nature of the independent constructors intellectual property - i.e. they spend millions to develop their own aero solutions to the current rule book. The F1 teams often use photographers taking pictures of the other cars in action to compare progress from one session to the next or one race weekend to the next. None of this covert activity is necessary when the aero is a spec standard to reduce costs. That's the main reason why Indycar is so competitive. The cars among all the teams are very, very similar other than damper design and setup. This makes for really close racing and more opportunities for drivers and teams to score big points.

@@buttercupstruelove340 This changed a few years ago, the FIA now requires all cars to be on display openly, so everyone can look at them(except when they have the engine cover off, or are damaged). This has stopped most of the "spy" photographers from annoying the teams, because they can freely get their shots at the start of the weekend. There are also more strict design rules, so the teams can't just copy another team, they have to show at every step how they designed their aero themselves.

Well thank you so much Romain for sharing this nice itw (btw, a smart formule, go on !). It is a real pleasure. Pat is a very sympathic and honest guy. Deeply interesting to listen to his F1 tests feedback. Fingers crossed for his (surely next) superlicense... Thanks to both of you for this moment of humanity.

Grosjean is a great driver he deserved to keep his seat in F1, Pato is the reason why I'm watching again IndyCar and hopefully we will get back a race here in his hometown Monterrey.

I love that you are so happy, Romain!

Really love these interviews! Pato seems super nice and I really hope he gets a shot in F1.

Romain, you're awesome, I cannot believe how cool is the fact that you are doing all this pure racing content, As a Mexican Pato is my favorite Indycar Driver, then you're up there with Palou and Colton, hope you get the whole grid in your motorhome, this is an awesome format of an interview!

love this. more people need to be exposed to the path that drivers are on and how they got where they are.

Excellent interview! Now we know Romain has a future as a trackside reporter when he retires from the cockpit!

Exceptional! THIS is the sort of content the sport cries out for! No ego. No canned "public relations" answers. Perfect! (I don't subscribe to many KZreadrs, but you earned my subscribe without asking!)

Just two bro’s bonding over racing! Love their attitude.

I love Pato's accent!!

Very cool! It's nice to get to see a bit of what they are like as a person away from media. What a super individual! I think he's going to have a shot at F1 in the near future.

The noise as Pato abused the MP4-13 around Laguna Seca is still one of my favorite memories to this day.

Great content! Thanks RG and Pato!

Nice win today Pato🏁

This was amazing and filled with so much incredible new knowledge! More!!!

This is so great ...i'm really rooting for Pato!

This interview series of yours is AWESOME

Dang this + the Kym Ilman interview of Pato is gold. Pato is amazing!

Love it! No frills interview on the 🚌 and way better than the over produced interview that ask the same boring questions. Grosjean should (bus) interview all the Indy drivers!

Great interview Romain. I have been a fan of F1 and Indy car for years and only more recently getting to know more about the drivers thanks to DTS and your videos. Romain, keep making these videos and hurry up and get that first win.

What a great interview, what a lovely guy Patricio is :)

Romain this is such a great insight into the drivers of IndyCar. F1 might have the tech but IC seems like a much better form of motor racing. It actually resembles a competitive sport and the drivers don’t seem to have their heads up their own backside. F1 is just looking like a cesspool at the moment and it’s soooo predictable. Keep up the great work and keep em coming. Thank you!

Enjoyed listening to you guys! So enthusiastic. I try and replicate the feeling in my C7 ZO6, M7 at COTA. The crowd is just imaginary for me. Oh well, it’s better than nothing.

Great interview! Best of luck!🏁

Love it! Keep'em coming Romain :)
