Sweeping Floors, Family Race Team Culture, and Moving to Indy with Larry Foyt

Katherine Legge talks with AJ Foyt Racing president Larry Foyt about running an IndyCar team and where the sport is headed. Foyt says AJ first told him “no way” to racing, so he quit other sports, swept floors at the shop, and started in go-karts. They discuss the grind of sponsorship and budgets, why results are about people and culture as much as money, moving operations from Texas to Indianapolis to find talent, working well with Santino Ferrucci, and how technical alliances (like their Penske partnership) shape IndyCar’s future and potential growth to three cars.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
