Inside The Sports Car Paddock, April 22, with Braun, Brundle

It's the 14th installment of the Inside The Sports Car Paddock interview show, and we open with CORE autosport race engineer Jeff Braun walking us through 'Dampers 101.' From their basic function to the different concepts of design, Braun starts what will likely be the first of a multi-part series on racing shocks and how they have become such a massive part of performance tuning.

We close with Alex Brundle, who shares his thoughts on the recent ELMS race in France; his late addition to the 24 Hours of Le mans; and a new Aston Martin opportunity at the Nurburgring.

Interviews:

  • Jeff Braun (starts at 2m26s)
  • Alex Brundle (starts at 45m40s)
