  • ‘Wall Street Journal’ sports editor Jon Clegg discusses whether or not F1 can sustain its success.
Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports

Formula 1 has surged into the American consciousness over the last four years, but now it faces the challenge of maintaining interest amid a season that may be uncompetitive from the start. Wall Street Journal sports editor and co-author of The Formula Jon Clegg joins the show to discuss how F1 got as big as it has and whether it can sustain that success.
