Why is the Indy Indy road race on Saturday? I caught it but just wondering. I actually thought it might be a double header. Nope.

Pretty good race after the boys got things sorted out. Maybe they should race with walls all around the track. That certainly alters their driving behavior. I'll bet Newgarden missed the 500 pit entrance attenuator by 6 inches after being moved over by Jack Harvey. He did hit his front tire to the rear of Harvey which damaged his wing. Staying out rendered 18th place.

Sting Ray didn't do too bad though he and others were down a lap. Pourchaire was a rocket for being that new. I guess he kept his nose clean unlike Newgarden.

Tires seemed to be an issue with a few cars. How can Power end up with only soft scuffs to finish? I thought those crew chiefs were immune to making mistakes like that. I thought Power drove one of his best races but didn't have anything to take a win, only 2nd.

Only 2nd, well that's not too bad points wise. Speaking of points, I got the feeling Dixon was playing it very safe. With all the banging around He pretty much drove a clean race and took 4th.

The championship standings got tossed around like bingo. Newgarden took the biggest hit.
