Montoya is already one of the best fairytale comeback stories of all times.
The season did start kind of slow, with NOLA race being a low point, but it picked up strongly after that. Indy 500 was excellent. The Toronto race as the strongest race of the last five years or so, and Iowa Corn Indy delivered another very solid race. While I didn't consider Fontana a great race due to safety considerations, it did generate an incredible amount of gossip on automotive news sites. The TV ratings are supposedly going up. What happen? Do we really need to get Danica Patrick back in Indy seat to get people interested?
