Borchetta Bourbon was first introduced in 2021 by Big Machine Distillery, timed to coincide with the inaugural 2021 Big Machine Grand Prix. Proprietor and entrepreneur Scott Borchetta, who played a crucial role in bringing INDYCAR SERIES racing back to Nashville, aimed to create a connection between Indianapolis and Nashville – one that was fortified by the discovery of a 1911 INDYCAR SERIES race at the Nashville Fairgrounds, the same year the Indy 500 was first held. The limited-edition, cask-strength, single-barrel bourbon was designed to honor Nashville's early motorsports history, with its label showcasing a photo of the Nashville starting lineup and a bronze replica of the Marmon 'Wasp,' the winning car from the first Indy 500.

NASCAR and IndyCar Come Together for Iconic Race Weekend at St. Petersburg
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. NASCAR and IndyCar have partnered to share the race weekend at St. Petersburg in 2026, with the Truck Series race being held on Saturday, February 28, while IndyCar will take over the street course on Sunday, March 1. This marks the first collaboration between the two forms of motorsports on a street course. The race at St. Petersburg is the opening round for IndyCar, also marking the Truck Series' first event on a street course. Both races are set to be broadcast by FOX Sports. Fans could expect to witness the best of both worlds, starting with the IndyCar qualifying on Saturday, followed by the Truck race. Sunday will feature the IndyCar race. The NASCAR Xfinity and Cup Series will be held on the same race weekend at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin. Speaking on the partnership between the two forms of motorsports, co-owner, chairman, and CEO of Green Savoree Racing Promotions, organizers of the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, Kim Green, said in a statement: "What a great new racing addition to the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg to include the NASCAR trucks into Saturday's show next year. Saturday will be packed for our fans with entertainment. We have INDYCAR qualifying and now an historic first with the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race. And, as usual, it all culminates on Sunday with the NTT INDYCAR SERIES season-opening event on the downtown streets of St. Petersburg."

More Miguel St. Petersburg collaboration between NASCAR and IndyCar could pave the way for more partnerships of a similar kind in the future. Speaking to NASCAR Executive Vice President and Chief Venue & Racing Innovations Officer Ben Kennedy said: "Yeah, potentially. We're going to collaborate with them on the St. Pete race next year, and the good news is we have such a good relationship with Doug, with Bud, with Roger, the entire team over at IndyCar, and there are a lot of synergies as well, with them having FOX as a broadcast partner, we have FOX for the first part of our season. There are a lot of natural opportunities for us to work closer together, in particular on some of those races in the season. "Something that we'll continue to explore with them. I think St. Pete next year will be a good kind of case study for us. We've had examples of it, of racing at Indianapolis in the past, and even though we didn't have as big of a presence there, IndyCar going to Iowa for a number of years, they came and raced at Richmond for a handful of years as well. "Really important for us to continue to have the relationship. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more opportunities for us to work closer together with them."

Jimmie Johnson Talks Historic NASCAR Run, Chad Knaus Fallout, INDYCAR Stint
NASCAR Cup Series Jimmie Johnson Talks Historic NASCAR Run, Chad Knaus Fallout, INDYCAR Stint Published Aug. 21, 2025 1:32 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link There are several ways to define domination. One of them is Jimmie Johnson's grip on NASCAR in the latter half of the 2000s. Johnson won the Cup Series championship in five consecutive seasons from 2006-10 and six times in eight years from 2006-13. Later, Johnson captured the 2016 Cup championship. The former NASCAR superstar provided his perspective on how that historic run began and the impact that driving for Hendrick Motorsports during his entire Cup Series career (three races in 2001 and full-time from 2002-2020) had on him. "It was a big shock, to say the least," Johnson told Kevin Harvick about joining Hendrick Motorsports on the latest edition of "Kevin Harvick's Happy Hour." "I ran three races in 2001, and the team was still kind of coming together. We didn't have our full-time crew chief. … I think my best finish was like two laps down in 26th, so that '01 year was like, 'wow, this isn't just a step-up, this is five or 10 steps up to go Cup racing,' so I was pretty worried. That worked very well because during the offseason, once we had Chad [Knaus] in place, I just dug in, and I leaned on the system that is Hendrick and wore Jeff Gordon out over ideas, notes, how he drives. He didn't really even have notes going at that point in time, but I was extracting all this stuff and making my own. "I'll never forget the first Atlanta race, which was the second or third race of the season, I was able to run on the lead lap and finish in the top-five. I was like, 'this place is tough.' I ran around Mark Martin all day long. I finished in the top five. 'I'm going to be okay,' and that light bulb went off just to continue to lean on the Hendrick system and have them keep teaching me." ADVERTISEMENT Johnson is tied with Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt for first in NASCAR history with seven Cup Series titles and is tied for sixth with 83 career Cup wins. Over that five-year championship run (2006-10), Johnson averaged seven wins and 16.2 top-five finishes per season, most notably taking the checkered flag 10 times in 2007. Prior to the championship run, Johnson finished as the runner-up for the Cup Series title in both 2003 and 2004, which were just his second and third seasons on the NASCAR circuit; he finished fifth in both 2002 (Johnson's rookie season) and 2005. One of the constants throughout Johnson's success was crew chief Chad Knaus, who was the crew chief for the No. 48 Lowe's car from 2002-18. Johnson elaborated on the success that he had with Knaus — but also their falling out as a team. Jimmie Johnson and Chad Knaus enjoyed a legendary run together as a driver-crew chief pairing. "He was the bad cop. I was the good cop within the team," Johnson said of Knaus. "He did so much pushing that I didn't need to, but I knew the way he pushed others, he expected that from me. And I felt like I needed to take some stress off of him, and I made sure that I had my s--- together. That was the responsibility I took in hand. He'd nudge me occasionally. There were certainly moments where it got heated and Rick [Hendrick] would have to get involved. But the great thing is, and for so long, it was never personal. It was also funny, when somebody says 'I really like what you did but,' Chad always had that 'but' that he would throw in. Our pressure in what we put on each other was fine until maybe two or three years left in our run, and it became personal. "I was afraid and frustrated that my career wasn't winding down the way that I wanted it to. Chad, the same. Where we were always aligned and never kind of personally attacked each other, we started to indirectly. It wasn't something that we intended to do, but it became personal, and that eroded away at our success more than anything, and then, eventually, Rick separated us." Johnson left the Cup Series after the 2020 season and began driving in the INDYCAR Series. Why did he make that decision? "Everything in my career has been driven by fear, and that just takes a toll on you. When I stepped away [from NASCAR], I didn't want to be driven by that anymore," Johnson said about joining INDYCAR. "I didn't like kind of who I was becoming in the way my headspace was during the course of a season and living through those moments. Kids really helped define that, and I realize and see 'man, I just didn't handle that right, or I wasn't thinking right, or my head wasn't right,' whatever it was. When I went into INDYCAR racing, that was the dream when I was a kid. … "I'm not driven by fear anymore. I want to enjoy. I want opportunity, and that's why I just kind of ignored the challenge that I had ahead of myself and committed to it and just went to go have fun." Johnson competed in two INDYCAR seasons at Chip Ganassi Racing, racing a combined 29 races from 2021-22. Meanwhile, Johnson has raced in the last three runnings of the Daytona 500 (2023-25) since leaving the sport as a full-time driver. This year, he finished third in the "Great American Race." Johnson was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2024. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?
