Well alright! A race where the driver with the best skills won.
Josef Newgarden said
"THAT is the way to win a race!" He won because he used his bravery and strategic skills to to pass 4 cars on a restart and then at the end he
perfectly timed the pass on O'Ward in the corner (a safe but really gutsy move that could have ended very badly for him).
In other news:
The beginning was a zoo.
It was an enjoyable race to watch (one of the best in many years).
Helio didn't do too badly for an old man.
Andretti goes back to Uber on Tuesday.

HOW THE HECK DID DIXON NOT GET A PENALTY FOR TAKING RHR OUT in a reaction move in the middle of a straight!!!?????????
