Spoiler, I talk race details here.

This was the first race I've been able to watch this season, and it was a good one! Especially considering it was on a street course. Tho not known for allowing much passing, there was plenty of passing happening.
Scott Dixon got sent to the back of the grid, yet finished In the top ten.

The new cars don't rely on downforce as much so can follow more closely and are in position to pass more often. Plus they do look better too!

I thought that Rossi should have been penelized for that last lap move where he dove to the inside of the Rookie, who gave him room. Then Rossi slid off the line into Wickens, got punted out of the front of the pack. A shame for him to get third and Wickens to end up at the back. Very mature skilled drive by Wickens!
I do like Rossi, just don't think it right that he finish so far ahead of the leader who he punted out.

These new cars may give us some of the best racing this season. It's too bad that The Indy series has so many Ovals on the schedule, otherwise it would probably be the series to watch.

Cheers Richard
