Guessing they put in that different turn 9 to slow them down before 10? Likely a good idea, but it certainly changes the racing.

The head of Indy car was being interviewed earlier about running the road course at Indy, but obviously wasn't happy with the track, i.e., the track working for the Indy cars. If you can run F1 cars there, why not Indy cars?

That penalty on Dixon was BS. They stopped the 2nd place car, at that time, (Castroneves) at the back of the pit box. Now maybe that is normal, but then the right rear tire changer on Castroneves' car goes walking, carrying the tire horizontally, back to the wall to crowd Dixon, but he wasn't walking directly towards the wall... he was walking towards the center of the empty box. Smells like a set up!

You can't tell me that right rear tire changer didn't know what was going on.

Dixon got robbed.
