Graham Rahal On Tire Safety, Bridgestone, U.S. Military Veterans, Ohio, Hobbies & More

Graham Rahal has been racing open-wheel cars since he was a teenager and won his first race as a 19-year old at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Rahal knows that tire performance is critical to driving on the edge and confidently controlling a car going over 200 miles an hour. While the average family car does not go nearly that fast, tires are an essential part of every safe driving experience — something Rahal knows well as a husband and a father, and also via recent survey from Bridgestone which was released in time for National Tire Safety Week 2021, as launched on June 28, 2021.

On June 30, 2021, I had the pleasure of speaking with Graham Rahal via Zoom, as embedded below. Besides tire safety and Bridgestone, we spoke about his racing career, his charitable endeavors and appreciation for the U.S. military, hobbies outside of work, future plans and more. Additional on Rahal and National Tire Safety Week 2021 can be found by clicking here, here and here.
