The Motorsport Brief: SVG answers your questions
Спорт
It’s our first chance to talk to Shane van Gisbergen since his big switch from Supercars to NASCAR, and it’s clear he’s loving this new chapter immensely.
Thank you to everyone who responded on social media to our call for questions, including those who put their best radio voices on and sent in audio. While we couldn’t get to all your questions in the time Trackhouse Racing kindly gave us, we covered most of the recurring themes.
Shane provides great insights on how wild the cars feel on ovals, drifting and burnouts in a NASCAR, his potential plans for more Sprintcar racing, the advice he's received from legends on both sides of the pond, and whether he would consider an Indy 500 wildcard like Kyle Larson did this year.
Although we didn’t discuss his now-trademark celebration of kicking a footy into the crowd, we love how SVG is bringing some Kiwi rugby roots to the United States and making his mark!

If Shane feels more comfortable in Cup Car on the ovals I'm very excited if the Cup ride works out next year.. Also explains the forward momentum he got during that one Oval race, albeit no one trusted him in any of his runs forward and hung him out to dry. Cool chat, thanks. DOING GREAT SVG
This was an excellent listen. Rusty you are brilliant. SVG bloody love watching you be happy and adapting to life in the USA. I never thought I would be counting down the days to watch the next NASCAR race but I’m bloody loving it
I am an Aussie but I couldn’t be more proud of what SVG is doing in the states. I get up every weekend in the early hours of the morning to watch him practice and qualify and race. I just want to know when they’re gonna give him a car that doesn’t have mechanical problems. Since he won in Chicago, it seems like every car they give him his some kind of mechanical problem that stops him from winning the race.

Likewise. Watched every lap surveying the totem pole and pit lane to make sure everything is going well. Full commitment when half the race is ads (WTF). Can’t wait for Chicago.

Of course aussies want him to do well, onya Gizzy!
Great job, Thrusta. You ask the right questions, and you do it respectfully, and get the answers we want. Much appreciated! Shane, you've re-invigorated my love of motorsport this year. Best wishes, mate! Also, Happy Matariki from Oz.
You are the champion of Interviews Greg and for Australia and NZ you would be the Champion of Champions with your reports and presentations. Huge thanks out to you.. Loved this interview with Shane and I would say you would be one of his fav's also...
Great Pod Cast Greg, like a lot of other Kiwis and sounds like Aussies too I am so enjoying SVG's journey. A Superstar.
It's not to easy to adjust to as some might think. ...Superchamp is Shane.
what a shame Liam Lawson doesn't have his personality, love to see him in a sprint car and indy car imagine in a F1 car wow and yes im a Aussie who use to like brock lowndes but now huge svg fan since he raced for tekno racing
Awesome interview 🙂, Huge fan of Ritchie as well ...
Hopefully if he get into Cup he might drop Xfinity Ovals and do some Wildcards or Co-drive in Supercars... Maybe Nascar vs Supercars Wildcards...

He will never not do a full season in if he is in cup. I think he is glad he left supercars
Svg the goat
Can I stress that NASCAR is pronounced as naScar not NAZZZCAR. I seem to be one of very few Aussies that say it correctly. Great interview tho

🤣🤣 who cars its mostly called crashcars. Winning on a oval is a lottery barely comes down to the actual fastest car/driver winning

So sad how our (Australian) media treated you. It hasn’t done the sport any good.
Shane watches v8 without sound because the commentary shits him HAHAHAHAHAHA no one likes Mark Skaife
