This guy will be just fine in NASCAR. He's happy to be here and he's taking it serious and trying to learn the craft. He's not coming in thinking he's top dog He's humble and he gets it.
Yep, great comment. Never been a SVG fan in Supercars, but now it just feels like there is massive hole without him. Give him time and he will show his class. 3rd was a great result. Best of luck SVG. 👍
He ran V8 Supercars which are very similar to the Next Gen Car compared to guys who ran F1. Obviously, he is talented or he would not have won his first start and finished top 15 in every start he has had.
hes come to play, for sure, the roadcourse style racing is what he would seem to have lots of experiance in doing, he has done several forms of racing its stated, including sprints, that said lets see how he does season long, hope he dont make too big a fool out of all the usual drivers, people already say us drivers aren't as good as europe or other parts of the world, though I saw with my own eyes each form of racing has its own skills case and point at bc 39 in 2022 they put an indycar driver in a midget and let him turn laps around the 1/4 mile dirt track on turn three of the brickyard, he had difficulty as it was not his usual wheelhouse, but was a good sport about it and eventually got a bit of the hang of sliding and throttling on the slick dirt
@ker90 180 DEGREES, 360 DEGREES Spark plug Where we come from a 180 is spinning the car in the opposite direction, a 360 is spinning the car in circles, you guys would call a donut hope that's not too complicated for ya bud. As Corey-silva didn't add kms or mph could mean it's in degree's and open to interpretations180 in New Zealand could mean a U turn, or simply facing the opposite way. kindygarden stuff. Guess you guys don't do it by degrees You need to be schooled and read your comment, not totally correct, sounds dumb. Not a Trumpet player are ya. probably why. Don't ask me to decipher that brain of yours
Shane van Gisbergen is the most adaptable race car I've had the pleasure of watching over his career to date. He's raced sprintcars, drifting, sportscars, rally. Enjoy this class act taking your American money.
@@ethanweeter2732No, there is, but there is normally a minimum amount of fuel that has been calculated as needed, and that’s the minimum amount you are required to put in the car, and since putting more fuel in costs more time, they won’t. Supercars (Bathurst aside) normally only have one or two stops, so much less opportunity to refuel and spread the additional fuel time cost over. We also often run sprint races, which are done without pit stops and so less fuel in the car at the start means a lighter & faster car.
As kiwis we love driving and racing and fuken sport in general. When its on its on and after we will have beer or blunt with ya. Shane is a beast in all forms of 4 wheel racing
The way he drove in Daytona and again this week in Atlanta shows that he's got speed and excellent racing judgment. He's going to be really good IMO, better than Ambrose.
Ambrose never really mastered the ovals but was great on the road courses and still managed to have a decent NASCAR career...It is literally only a matter of time before SVG masters the science of racing ovals and we already know what he can do on a NASCAR road course (Chicago)...he will be in the Cup series in no time and consistently running Top 5/Top 10.
Aussie v8 legend Dick Johnson came to race Nascar late 80s, Marcos Ambrose came in 2006 and won several nascar races before returning to Australia and now SVG making a name for himself winning the Chicago cup street race and now embarking on his own nascar journey. SVG! SVG! SVG! Don't forget he race the 24 Hours of Daytona before.
Ambrose never won on an oval though and if you can't do in NASCAR, you can't win a championship. He needs to have more of Tony Stewart like turn around from Indycar. Tony is the only driver in the "modern" era that's had any real success after changing series. I hope he does well, but it's gonna be super tough in the Cup series outside of the road/street courses. Even those will get tougher ast he Cup guys just keep getting better and better at those types of tracks.
I love how they think because he’s a rookie that he has little experience racing, like the night racing question. He replies, I’ve done the Rolex and Le Mans 24 so yeah done fair bit of racing at night. Hahaha so humble yet quietly ready to slay…. Represent brother…. Straya/NZ
Awfully steep statement. (Keep in mind I like SVG just fine and am glad he's bringing in fresh interest) In no particular order: Andretti Earnhardt Schumacher Senna Gordon Petty Foyt Mansell Unser Pearson Ironman Stewart Kinser Here's a few backups Allison Johnson Elliot Busch Verstappen Larson Waltrip Yarborough
nascar had been blessed with a up and coming legend. I for one am excited to watch him evolve in the sport as I a have watched him rise to the top in the supercars series
Im an SWG fan like a lot of kiwi racing follower's,never knew much/anything about US racing until he came over last year,and im following him over there now, Unfortunately there no kiwi driver in Super Car's driving for Holden,not a ford fan so I've slowed up watchin that, it's great we have American racing here on tv looking forward to the whole series
He just loves racing. The more the better. And just wait once it clicks for him it will clock hard. As a kiwi trust us when we say just wait watch and enjoy his skills
Something they don't tell ya over in the US is svg has raced everything and and won or done well in everything he has raced . He's going to be just fine
Damn straight. Imagine if someone frm there did Bathurst. It might then dawn on them how good Shane actually is,and give us frm down here the last laugh.😊
Shane van Gisbergen has lived in Australia since he was 18 years old and joined the 'Supercars' series in September 2007. Yet the majority of reporters speak of him coming over from New Zealand (his place of birth). When he has indeed lived in and was resident in Australia for almost half of his life. In making the transition from an Australian form of Motorsports to the United States. No one is saying he isn't a New Zealander. For those with a reading disability. Many New Zealanders live in Australia.
@saigonjinn3772 this was not the point when people are openly saying that he arrived in the USA from New Zealand and not by way of Australia. Unfortunately few people understand what is out there before their own eyes and deafness
I'm a true blue aussie cut nz some slack our poor cousins haven't got much to crow about these days but your right he spent a lot of years living over here but really who cares! He still has that obnoxious kiwi accent 😂
His place of birth, where he was raised, schooled and learned to race bikes quads and cars. Sure he went to Australia for work, but he certainly came from New Zealand.
Yeah all the talent really came through at the end. Did you see all the skill that was involved when he overtook the cars at the front that either ran out of gas or the ones he passed when they pitted for gas. Did he or anyone else actually pass anyone else that was running in the 15. It was almost as bad as F1 out there single file follow the leader.
@@richardgabinelli7805I’m thinking you will eat your words when you see what talent SVG has. Yes he’s new. But I promise you his race awareness in any car is amazing.
Man I miss him here in Australia with our racing coming up but I swear to fuck I hope he has a good time over there and has a good crack at it which is a few years
That second last question - are NZ fans following you?? 😧 Hell yes - we kiwis have a proud heritage in motor racing. Anyone heard of Scott Dixon? Scott McLaughlin? Liam Lawson (next gen F1 hopeful) Bruce McLaren? Denny Hulme? We are behind SVG 100% from downunder 👌
Im a Kiwi living in Brizzy, I dont give a fat rats ass on where SVG is from, I read a comment here saying that all the questions were that the "New Zealander"....and Australia wasn't mentioned in any of the questions, Lets not use this, as another, Keith Urban, Phar Lap, Pavlova, Russell Crowe, Fred Hollows, and the list goes on. Lets enjoy this, as Anzacs... brothers and sisters forever, no matter which country we're from.❤
SVG loves racing full stop…. You throw wheels and an engine on a bathtub and he will not only race it, he will win too. Once he gets his head around oval tracks and the craft required to be successful, not a lot will stop him other than getting caught up in someone else’s mistakes.
SVG is a more talented racer than half of the current cup drivers out there. I know he’s having a good time, but he definitely belongs in the top series.
SVG is a big talent, but I think he needs to earn his stripes before he jumps into a Cup Car. He was not afraid to use the bumper in $upercars, & was allowed to get away with it, & I don't think he'll get that leeway in the main game.
Once he gets used to it he will do well. money isn’t a thing that drivers chase down under they can live quite comfortably without trillions of dollars it’s more about racing we love it down here and plus SVG is worth plenty in 2 countries and maybe even 3
I bet SVG does at least as good as Ambrose on Road Courses [probably better; and Ambrose was awesome]. I thank he will do better on Ovals, though. SVG will get wins on Ovals. It might be just me he seems more confident. Back in the day down in Watkins Glen rained delayed Marcus Ambrose win, I remember my son and I was able to get a room at "The Glen" motel that Sunday night to watch race on Monday. Sunday night we were down in the basement/pool level bar " shooting the shit " with Ford rep. and a Ford Engineer [ we thought they were bs-ing us about who they were.] They predicted Ambrose win and we were giving them shit. [We were and are Tony Stewart fans] They told Ambrose just needs to gain confidence on Ovals.*[My whole point of the story..."confidence"] Well, inconclusion...when my son and I saw photos of the winner circle...those 2 guys were in the photo next to Ambrose. LOL True story!
Keep it up gizzy , us aussies are watchin you not the Supercars , nascars look better than the merican styled Aussie format anyways , if I’m gonna watch a Chevy I’m watchin nascar not the Australian touring car championship , as these aren’t touring cars any more , brocky would be sad #05BROCK
100%, he kicks all the regular's assess all the time. Unless you're a great road racer, you can't drive, period. Oval drivers just dont cut it anymore. Road course racing is a must these days, and not just in a stock car, you got to be a karting champion, and work your way up.

Absolutely great comment, he is a very cool humble guy, thankyou Cheers from Tasmania Australia and New Zealand 🍺🍺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇳🇿🇳🇿🤝🇳🇿🇺🇸😎✌👍
Damn. exactly what I was thinking. I won't be surprised to see him in victory lane this year

He has 20 years of racing experience already. He will be a force in Nascar once he settles in.
The competition better watch out. This guy is a legit racer. He is going to win races.

I think most people respect all racing for what it is. NASCAR has challenges just like F1 or supercars in Australia. @@manga12
He’s already won races
You should check out the videos on RUclips with GIZ on gravel roads in rallycars even had a P2 in wrc 2 also a demon in a drift car
@@JasonHartley-fc3xv just saying differant racing differant nuances, racing on gravel now that sounds sketchy, though worth taking a look at.
This is the one guy that keeps me mildly interested in NASCAR. He has a wealth of talent. I hope he does well.
He's the first driver I've ever bothered to follow in Xfinity!
“300, or 180.. whatever it is in your language” 😂
180 turned around the way you came or spun, 360 is a complete circle spun completely around

Great interview. Respectful questions with great responses. Awesome presence. A sponsor's dream
Love the Nascar media.
was watching the first V8 Supercars of the season today. Missed SVG 😞 . Hope he will be successful in NASCAR
Same here. Supercars feels empty without him now. And I'm not even a SVG fan in Supercars. Best of luck to him in the States. 💪👍
Naaa I was sick of him winning haha
This is the happiest I’ve seen Shane for ages
Shane van Gisbergen is the most adaptable race car I've had the pleasure of watching over his career to date. He's raced sprintcars, drifting, sportscars, rally. Enjoy this class act taking your American money.
He's such a likable guy good attitude.
Based on the spanking in Chicago hes ready to be thir road course instructor which is the hardest form of cup racing
Hell yeah, go SVG! Proud to be a New Zealander 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
SVG will progress very quickly, he’s smart and can drive anything well.
3rd mate in second xfintiy says it all
Finished 3rd today, proved he can run in draft AND manage fuel.
In Supercars you NEED to conserve fuel from lap one until the end.
Trust me the style of racing he comes from there's a *lot* more for the driver to do in the car. Multitasking won't be something SVG struggles with.
@@kpskingdomNo refueling?
@@ethanweeter2732 I've been watching supercars races for a few years, and I'm pretty sure they do refuel

I think SVG will be a great addition to NASCAR
watched and listened to this guy at the track. amazing performance. broken steering rack and finished 12th, 3-wide on top.
I like how He describes how he is learning how to keep air on the car. Genuine Guy

@@Blanchy10 still did pretty good
@@Blanchy10 never had the best car and teams did ok on roadcourses..
SVG is a New Zealander, the others were Australians, big difference.
A very polished professional interview...after this weekend at Bathurst he is missed already.
This guy has what it takes l have been watching nascar for 60 years and he puts the car in the right place for a win won't be long .
SVG is a skillful and experienced driver so it won't take him long to figure it out. If the car is good that weekend, he'll finish well.
I love how they think because he’s a rookie that he has little experience racing, like the night racing question. He replies, I’ve done the Rolex and Le Mans 24 so yeah done fair bit of racing at night. Hahaha so humble yet quietly ready to slay…. Represent brother…. Straya/NZ
Yes we are following SVG and watching a lot more NASCAR races👍👍
He is probably in the top ten drivers that ever lived. He will be just fine. The competition not so sure.
Awfully steep statement. (Keep in mind I like SVG just fine and am glad he's bringing in fresh interest)
In no particular order:
Andretti
Earnhardt

From Oz, I have always liked NASCAR but don’t get to see it much from here. Hopefully SVG will bring us more coverage in Oz.
Absolutely. Im watching Nascar from Perth following Shane, im really enjoing watching the cup cars also.
Don't let the goobers fool ya, true NASCAR fans are welcoming SVG in and wish him the best.
nascar had been blessed with a up and coming legend. I for one am excited to watch him evolve in the sport as I a have watched him rise to the top in the supercars series
Thanks Mr Wallace, appreciate the upload.
And he just got 3rd in his second XFinity race!
It was extremely impressive.Some that do this every week cant do what he just did. And his car hes in isnt even the best equipment honestly.
LOL a Depend's Sponcership. What tha heck kinda reporter question is that? He handled it well.
Something an Aussie or Kiwi would ask. Not a problem for SVG
He did say he was shitting himself in the ARCA race...
It’s like drinking water right out of a firehouse! All the information you are getting has to feel like it. Keep it up my man.
Kenny He is great !
His girlfriend is still part owner of his old team 888 racing
Well done Shane 👍🇦🇺
In true Kiwi style he's a humble man carrying a big stick. 🙃
He reminds me of Jean Girard from Talladega Nights 😂

Been watching SVG since he was fresh out of school, he's excelled in every class of car he's raced,
This guy is dangerous to nascar and I like it
Go and getem bro...💪🇳🇿🇭🇲
So glad it was on channel 3 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cant wait to see SVG Progress in this sport, hes a very humbled guy and will do well, go get them brother❤🙏 Cheers 🍺🍺🍺🇦🇺🇳🇿🤝🇳🇿🇺🇸😎✌👍
As a 🇦🇺 this bloke can turn a wheel or two. 👍😊
Something they don't tell ya over in the US is svg has raced everything and and won or done well in everything he has raced . He's going to be just fine
Not just racing - he can drift too. Not easy switching from grip to slip.
@kasmstamps1897 Have you watch him drive a supercar in the wet or even in the dry its slide ways .
4th oval race and finished on the podium! Great run and hopefully the first of many.
Kiwis and Aussies will be closely following SVG progress in NASCAR. He is a generational driving talent so we are keen to see what he achieves.
Damn straight. Imagine if someone frm there did Bathurst. It might then dawn on them how good Shane actually is,and give us frm down here the last laugh.😊
I couldnt be happier to have Shane in nascar.
Lllleeeetttttssss go, wish you well and may God bless and keep you safe in your journey, fellow kiwi
I wish SVG had gone to Indycar instead and continued his rivalry with fellow Kiwi and former Aussie V8 Supercar driver Scotty Mac.
Top 3!
Go Gizzy. Aussieland is behind ya
SVG and Scott Dixon would've been awesome "shake n bake" buddies.
Best of luck Shane
Shane is the real deal.
He will pick up oval racing quick.
He puts in 100% effort.
If he's grinning, he's winning.

Marcos Ambrose all over again! Best to you, mate!

Short memories. Don't forget Scott Mac won Supercars champs before going to Indycar. Then SVG was able to fly flag for HSV sigh.
SVG is a more talented racer than half of the current cup drivers out there. I know he’s having a good time, but he definitely belongs in the top series.
Nah, wait til Bubble Wallace gives him some rubbin' racin'.
Something just tells me SVG is going to dominate NASCAR, if not this year then maybe next but then make that 10 seasons from there
Sounds good on paper, but NASCAR is a funny series. Kyle Busch's talent didn't simply evaporate, but he can't seem to buy a win lately.
He,s a Kiwi but I wish him all the best despite that 😁
They say NASCAR is full of ‘top guns’ - SVG is a snipers nightmare. Watch out!!
When NASCAR is your only option to continue driving a car fast you should check Indeed.
Future kiwi Champ
SVG is a big talent, but I think he needs to earn his stripes before he jumps into a Cup Car. He was not afraid to use the bumper in $upercars, & was allowed to get away with it, & I don't think he'll get that leeway in the main game.
He is going to do farrrr better than Marcus ambrose ever did lol
He'll struggle with not winning every weekend as he's used to, but the financial compensation will make up for that.
Once he gets used to it he will do well. money isn’t a thing that drivers chase down under they can live quite comfortably without trillions of dollars it’s more about racing we love it down here and plus SVG is worth plenty in 2 countries and maybe even 3
SVG TOP 3!!!!!!!!
One NDF and one third place finish. The guy can drive but it’s a bit too soon for me to get excited.
Getting 3rd when he's still learning so much is amazingly impressive.
I bet SVG does at least as good as Ambrose on Road Courses [probably better; and Ambrose was awesome]. I thank he will do better on Ovals, though. SVG will get wins on Ovals.

He’s not a 1 hit wonder he’s the real deal
Waiting for the 24th of LeMans,and WEC and IMSA, where he should be doing some real racing...
If NASCAR thinks he has value he will be fine
Keep it up gizzy , us aussies are watchin you not the Supercars , nascars look better than the merican styled Aussie format anyways , if I’m gonna watch a Chevy I’m watchin nascar not the Australian touring car championship , as these aren’t touring cars any more , brocky would be sad #05BROCK
