INDYCAR’s “Nordic Track” – Sweden’s Marcus Ericsson and Denmark’s Christian Lundgaard

February 8, 2022

The world is celebrating the Winter Olympic Games in Beijing, China, and this week’s edition of Pit Pass Indy features INDYCAR’s “Nordic Track” of drivers. It’s Sweden’s Marcus Ericsson of Chip Ganassi Racing and Denmark’s Christian Lundgaard of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing.

Although these drivers aren’t competing in any type of winter sports, they are from the Nordic Region of Europe that has produced some great Winter Olympians.

For Ericsson and Lundgaard, however, they are preparing for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES season opening race, the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on February 27.

Pit Pass Indy host Bruce Martin interviewed both Ericsson and Lundgaard at INDYCAR’s “Content Days” at the JW Marriott Hotel in downtown Indianapolis.

In the world of racing, "Penske" means performance ... and winning. For good reason. Since 1966, Team Penske has won 44 national championships, 17 IndyCar alone. And last year, Team Penske recorded its second-straight NASCAR Cup Series championship and won its record 19th Indianapolis 500. Those are results that are tough to top.
