The competition in Indy Lights is stronger than ever. There are at least 2-3 drivers I could see making it to IndyCar next year, including Simmons if a seat opens. That said, wtf happened to the extremely talented Alex Lloyd? Not the greatest Indy run. Wasn't Ganassi supposed to run him full season?

Poor race car for Battistini. Broken gearbox, little practice, oversteer, understeer etc. Come on Panther.
