Could Scott Dixon win this on strategy?

I would try and see about Palou’s pace but yet another commercial…

Devlin trying to make sure teams have a positive memory of him moving out of the way early on the straight, that's a man looking for a ride
Getting past Dixie ain't happening for Graham |

Congrats to Dixie. I had a funny feeling he might win it.

Both off of 12 with that button hard to the wheel like kids playing racing games.
19 straight years with a win in 319th straight race, second most active is Graham 100 races behind him |

Gutted for Rahal, that should have been his race but Dixon does impossible things again to win for the 19th season in a row.

Dixon's win puts him second in the driver's championship.

Rahal had a small mistake into the last lap. Lost the chance there. Unlucky.
Masterful by Dixon. |

It was a dreadful day for the rookies not named Linus who came home in 12. That guy has to have a paid ride for next year. He has come in with no prep and been a solid top half guy.

Stingy nailed it. Up against it all weekend and that was the best the car could do. In fact much better than the car could do.

Race Result
I really enjoyed the race and found the tyre strategies intriguing. It turned out that the option tyre was the better option. I was great there was only one FCY, which meant uninterrupted racing and the race could naturally unfold. CGR qualified poorly but turned it around with a great call, which brought Dixon in for that stop after the first lap incident, plus Palou finishing in the top 10. I've got to feel sorry for Graham Rahal, after all that It must be galling coming second. Penske got Power and Scotty Mac into the top 10 finishers, but that's got to be a race Josef Newgarden would rather forget about, as any hope of winning the driver's title dwindles. Arrows McLaren were there in the mix, with O'Ward 3rd and last year's winner Rossi in 5th but the team have been unable to get a win all season. |

I know what you are saying about Rahal, but it is still a good weekend for him and the team. They’ve been anonymous a lot this year apart from the big event when it was for the wrong reasons. This weekend for a good one for them.
Three races left and Palou has practically a two race points margin. Nearly there. |
