Who is going to win this one guys?
Unless someone can find a way to slow Hinch, or he goofs, it looks like a done deal.

What a dominating performance by the mayor of Hinchtown.

Again, a disappointing performance by Ganassi on a track they used to own.

Penske's race pace was rather unimpressive.

[Keyser Soze]

Racing on small ovals is much better for Indycar ,but cars are still underpowered and relatively easy to drive to really display the skill gap between the haves and the have nots.

2011 was a better race for sure.
