IndyCar series driver Sting Ray Robb joined the Sports Spectrum Get In The Game podcast and shared why “God’s Word is the only truth that we can stand on.”
“That happens on and off the racetrack. So whether that’s leading in your own home, leading in your marriage, leading in your family, at the work site with a team, against other drivers and competition, it’s how you handle conflicts,” Sting Ray Robb said on the podcast. “I mean, it should be the outpouring of your heart from what you put into it, right? You are what you eat, so just continue to feed on God’s word and make sure that it is the center of your life.

“And you know, I am going to be the first one to throw my hand up and say, I don’t do that enough,” he admitted. “As an athlete, when you’re pursuing a sport, when you’re training, it’s really, really easy to get caught up in, ‘hey, what’s the best thing for the day? I need to go for a 10 Mile run. I need to lift weights. I need to get on the simulator. I need to go to the engineers and meet with them, right?’
“The foundation has to be your faith and your identity in Christ,” the race car driver added. “Everything else has to come from that, and after that. And it’s really, really hard to want to do. But it’s not just about desire, right? We let the desires of our hearts be changed through our disciplines, and so our discipline has to be chasing after that faith first.”
Last week, Sting Ray Robb confirmed his return to the Juncos Hollinger Race team for 2026.
“Sting Ray is a key pillar in the structure we’re building for 2026,” JHR team principal Dave O’Neill shared in a press release. “His commitment and approach match the ambition driving this team forward. We took meaningful steps this year, but we know there’s far more potential to unlock and 2026 is our chance to convert that progress into real performance gains. With the continuity Sting Ray provides, combined with the pace, experience and race-winning pedigree Rinus brings, we believe this lineup gives us the firepower to move up the order quickly.”
“This season is massive for me, and I’m embracing it fully,” Sting Ray Robb said. “It’s my first opportunity to run with the same team for a second season and I’m ready for what it demands. The key for me is the continuity – working with the established team people and the newer faces we all trust, with everyone focused on elevating across all areas.
“Having Dave (O’Neill’s) experience at the helm has been huge. You can feel the way his racing pedigree shapes our processes, the way he leads the room, and the overall professionalism. Pair that with the insight from (engineer) Adam Carroll and the six seasons of experience Rinus brings as a teammate, and it feels like the whole operation is headed in the right direction. I’m excited to have Rinus as a teammate – we’re aligned, we’re hungry, and we’re ready to fight towards the front together,” he added.
Sting Ray Robb is one of the biggest names in IndyCar racing. A big reason for his success is through the discipline he has with himself and the sport. Furthermore, Sting Ray Robb takes that same discipline and applies it to his spiritual life, ensuring he continues to feed upon God’s Word and not what the world feeds him.
