I wonder if the sun of the day has drawn some oil out of the new asphalt? Cos this track seems seriously slick.

The racing seems to getting a bit better now. Prior to now it was a bit of a snoozefest.

Newgarden and Pagenaud just collided on the main straight. Newgarden went to the lead and Dixon got by Pagenaud. That was wild.

Fair move from Newgarden with the win on the line. Pagenaud should learn from that instead of crying. :tongue:

The pass Newgarden made was all balls. I still haven't figured out how Kimball didn't get a penalty for blocking Daly. I think it shows that a oval race should end the season instead of Sonoma.
