AJ Allmendinger vs Shane van Gisbergen at Sonoma: Kaulig's dynamic duo
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июн 2024
- AJ Allmendinger has been one of the premier road course racers in NASCAR for over a decade, but the California native hasn't had much success at his home track of Sonoma Raceway. Meanwhile, Shane van Gisbergen has taken NASCAR by storm and looks poised to become the sport's next big star.
In this clip from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Pit Reporters, NASCAR journalists Deb Williams and Kelly Crandall examine the internal pressure Kaulig Racing's dynamic duo feels on road courses, if Shane van Gisbergen has the right personality to be a global superstar and why NASCAR is loving the increased presence of international stars from the V8 Supercars, Formula 1 and other racing series. #NASCAR

New Nascar fan watching from Brisbane, Australia. Thanks to SVG.
Same here 🙂
Same bro from Strathpine
Sydney, same here. The guy ruled supercars. Don't care where he comes from (although proud that he's from either aus or nz), he's a generational talent. Looking forward to Liam Lawson in f1!
And another !! Brisvegas
SVG isn't an Australian driver he is a New Zealand driver that dominated the Australian racing scene the same as Scott McLaughlin. I am now a Nascar fan from Auckland, New Zealand because of the Giz and its great to see him so much more comfortable with the media than when he was in the V8 supercars.
Kiwi here, never taken any notice of NASCAR before but now due to SVG I'm taking a keen interest. Especially in the road courses, I still find the ovals race length a bit long and boring though
Same watching the ovals, but struggle with the stage regroups, and cautions for everything , i mean a car spins hits nothing, oh cautions out, but still enjoying it.
All you have to remember is that SVG is a veteran, not a rookie. He has been winning since 1998 at 9 years old. He is a three times Supercars Champion and has won in everything from Le Mans, GT Cup, rallying and speedway. 26 years of it. Back home his nickname is The Spider. He will wait for his chance and pounce on the slightest error by the car in front. He can win in any format and has done so and deserves respect. And his close competitors in Nascar, do that. He is the NZ version of his hero, 8 times LeMans winner and mentor, Tom Kristensen. Now the press need to realise that being born in the USA does not make you better than anyone else. Once he gets his oval track and superspeedway game sorted he will be a winner there too, and his great quality is endless patience. Just like a spider waiting at the edge of the web.
He is a Nascar rookie. Nobody thinks he's never raced a car.
A NASCAR ROOKIE, A LEGEND IN SUPERCAR SERIES, HIGHEST ACOLLADES IN LE MANS, SPEEDWAY, RALLY.
AND ALREADY HAS TWO GREAT WINS IN NASCAR, BETTER THAN MOST FRESHMEN & GRADUATES OF
THE GAME!
ON TOP OF ALL THE SUCCESS ACROSS MULTIPLE CLASSES
HE REMAINS HUMBLE, RESPECTFUL WITH A GENUINE STRAIGHT UP & DOWN PERSONALITY!
new Zealander here!!! I have been following Shane's journey all year, Ive watched all of the XFINITY series and have watched quite a few cup races now despite SVG not being in the cup series.
Watching from NZ. SVG & Scotty Mac are currently New Zealand’s best exports. Kiwi power 🇳🇿 🇳🇿
Scott Dixon before those 2 if not for him he’s the one that’s blazed the trail for the latter 2.
@@corynhughes7782Bruce McLaren Chris Amon Denny Hulme they the kiwi pioneers that created the pathways.
Dixon not far off ALL time Indy Most Career Wins
Thats about all ya got, apart from sheep.
Heh Iandian lady, he's a KIWI,
Alternative Title: The Dinger vs The Gizz
Great comments from the older lady, as an Ozzie, it's great to see SVG doing great, but AJ is a fantastic road racer also, all respect to him for sure, but I hope he doesn't start to overdrive because of SVG. Just relax and settle is the best thing in his situation I believe, because no doubt he's a huge talent and can get back winning again....really love all these guys.
Chris Rice said, when they first signed SVG, AJ didn't embrace it that much to start off
If AJ can contain his ego and remain humbled, he will find SVG will naturally push AJ’s talent to a whole new level. Why is SVG so good? Look at who he’s been racing against the last 10 years (Wincup, Lowndes, Scotty Mac, Tander, Frosty)… SVG had to learn how to beat these guys who were just almost unbeatable..
Ambrose would've REALLY blitzed in a proper car .......... RPM was an average team/car combo ...... they really had no money.
More Kiwis and Aussies are watching NASCAR now.For me I’ve always like watching stock cars clearly some really good American drivers…good stuff guys🤙
Thanks! It's so cool seeing all the V8 guys make their way here to the States. Maybe one day we'll get some NASCAR guys in your neck of the woods!
@@GoPRNLive No I do not think so but the organisations will help each other
It seems to me as an Aussie that AJ is a bit intimidated by SVG & how good he actually is.
A.J & EVERY OTHER DRIVER IN BOTH NASCAR SERIES !
Rent free 😂
I met with SVG on debut at Oran Park in the Team Kiwi car. Same age as me too and I've pretty much watched every race of his professional career. It's that year after year battling with the best touring car race drivers in the world that has made him so good. Tander, Whincup, Winterbottom, Mclaughlin, Lowndes etc. The Nascar Cup series debut win isn't the only amazing victory at first attempt. The NZ grand prix win is nuts and even an LMP2 car in Asia Lemans he was faster then the regulars. He's also won Bathurst 12 hour and the World GT Endurance Cup formally Blancpain.
Don't forget rallying. Guy is legendary and of similar versatility to Kyle Larson. Watching those 2 battle on the coming seasons will be a treat. They need to do a side solo together and go heads up across 3 or r disciplines. Say Indy car, NASCAR, rally car and sprint car . Would be a great watch.
SVG is next level.
Even though svg is a kiwi, there's a lot of Aussies cheering their kiwi mates on.. it'll be interesting to see how the next couple of guys from downunder have their first crack this weekend.. I'm enjoying nascar for the first time.. not a fan of the green and white checkered flags to be honest. Just seems weird to stop a race 3 times.. kills the whole endurance bit. Cars have to go fast and go long enough down here to be considered worthy. Tyres too
I'm a huge AJ fan and he's my favorite on road courses but I think SVG is just next level because that's all he's ever done. AJ has also done much more oval racing so definitely makes him better overall but makes him a notch below Shane when it comes to turning right
Um, please do your study again. svg is not Australian!
great for svg having a fulltime go in xfinity. great for cam waters and will brown have a special "one Off' events in nascar. it would be great if a few american drivers to have a drive at aussie races like bathurst.
learning it all bit by bit, thanks from NZ
New fan from OZ...enjoying learning the intricacies of Nascar (vicariously).
I'm Kiwi and watching NASCAR now, every Sunday afternoon,after church,even an earthquake can't get me to move when SVG is driving, I can't seem to get the ovals just yet,but the streets,thats different,
Thank USA for getting him to talk,he showed distain for the Super car's media,and the Blue oval fans Aus and Kiwi's,hated him Glad you guys have warmed up to him, Cheers all 💯🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
"He's exactly where he should be at this point" I think he's miles ahead of where he should be as a rookie. Any race is extremely hard to win, just look at Dinger, he's not exactly racking up wins with all of his experience and for Shane to get that win ahead of him is huge.
He ain't no rookie, for a little while in Nascar but I'll repost this from another comment " SVG is a veteran, not a rookie. He has been winning since 1998 at 9 years old. He is a three times Supercars Champion and has won in everything from Le Mans, GT Cup, rallying and speedway. 26 years of it. Back home his nickname is The Spider. He will wait for his chance and pounce on the slightest error by the car in front. He can win in any format and has done so and deserves respect"
SVG is not an Aussie.
Yes, we all know his a proud kiwi but nothing wrong with us embracing him in Oz.
@@chrisschneiders6734
Dead right, Kiwis don't mind sharing him, after all he learnt his trade in
Australia, all good
mate.
As long as you admit that Pavlova and Crowded House are from NZ you can keep Russell Crowe though@@chrisschneiders6734
Anyone from NZ who does well in Aus in any discipline (sport, art, music, acting etc)… Is basically considered a step child of Australia.. I’m Aussie and am a massive fan of much NZ bred talent.. Aus gives you guys a platform for greater recognition.. it’s sort of like a partnership (Aussie V8 Supercars Series and NZ talent)
Yeah, I’m an Aussie and it’s making me cringe. I love our New Zealand cousins, but it is a whole different country. No fooling. It is absolutely not australia and vice versa.
My Nascar cup series road course dream would be SVG vsAJ almendinger vs Michael McDowell
These aussie supercar drivers are going to bring it all to NASCAR, it's " GO HARD or GO HOME " these guys will just leave it all on the race track. What ever happens..... it is what it is.
SVG is kiwi
@@Jono_82 yes that's correct, I was referring to Will Brown and Cam Waters.
To bad we don't have a nascar race here in Australia
There is an abandoned NASCAR track in Aus can't remember where,but it shut down, wasn't what we down this way were interested in,sad the Aussie stock cars didn't take it over,big enough

Calling SVG an Aussie is like calling calling Kyle Larson Canadian, accept New Zealand is complete different country with an ocean between it😅
Would have been great if SVG was in the Cup with Brown and Waters this weekend. That would have gotten serious attention down under. Still pretty amped to see if SVG can go back to back. I suspect he will be taken out however. The legal contact is the biggest difference to Supercars when they are racing Road Course. I’m picking Brown will struggle with that too. Waters might adapt quicker, but he certainly has below average levels of luck….
He is a spotter for Will Browns race.
Svg fan here from NZ. Come on, AJ. Don't be intimidated by Shane.
Just get on with the job mate you'll be fine.
Marcos Ambrose never won at Sonoma, his best was 3rd in his first race there, after that it was 6, 5, 8, 7 and 8th in his last race.
Kaulig racing is an awesome Canadian team.
Ohioian
Lol, my mistake. Just like calling SVG an Aussie.
SHANE VANGISBERGEN ,Scott Mac, Scott Dixon , are all proudly NEW ZEALANDERS 🎉
svg is a kiwi driver
Shane van SKIDSBERGEN o7 🇳🇿
Lots of Ozzies and Kiwis seemingly arguing over his nationality or where his success comes from. Im a kiwi, he's a definitely kiwi ..... but honestly who cares. Glad hes blazing a trail.
But @ShaneVanGisbergen was gifted a brand new car for this race, I hope he uses it well #WeatherTech
We call him grizzy down under pls start calling him GRIZZY
NASCAR should buy the supercar series.
Not sure about that.. Would hate to see them destroy a brand built on history like Supercars..
What I do want to see, is Nascars very best compete at Bathurst.. I want to see Kyle Larson on the mountain ⛰️
@@positivethoughtlibrary the Supercars brand is barely 30 years old. But I do hear you. I was thinking more like their ownership of IMSA. It would be called Supercars still. It’s a huge, professional Motorsport organisation, well funded and understand promotion. They understand the attraction of the V8 engine and have manafacturers building them.
Couldn't get any worse, the whole parity bs done me. They are getting slower too, you won't see another "lap of the gods" any time soon and that was 03 I think
I like your reports but please shane is not Australian. Notice the accent between Will Brown & Shane. Aussies have an annoying twang 😂
@@UndisclosedViewer six or sex 😅
@@Inkrebelnz sux
AJ needs to do a season in Supercars. The amount of experience he would gain in street and road courses... just saying 🤷♂️
The dinga vs the ringa😅😅😅😅
Almond Dinger, dont use your dinger to ding Almonds.
