Dario completely missed the apex, he overshot the corner worse than Newgarden and used Newgardens car as the save, Newgarden had the "racing" line as he was able to outbreak Dario, but thanks to the rear bumpers, Dario clipped him and sent him in the wall, with the old car, Dario would've most likely cut Newgardens rear tire. Dario also should've known this is a young kid who was on the front row for the first time and had to have known he was gonna push to get some air time

Great race and once again, awesome coverage by the NBC crew. Great looking and great audio, especially the in-car.
When I saw what Newgarden did, his fault or not, I couldn't help but think of a young Paul Tracy. I like the little shove-over that Dixon gave Franchitti. Tsk-tsk on Rahal although fat chance of Andretti ever making that corner. Oh Sato! I dunno... I hate these late race penalties and the one on RHR is tough to take but that's racing???

My first live race to attend and watch an IndyCar since forever. Glad to see one series and it looks like although I've missed a lot, this series is heading to the right track. Everyone in one roof, just made it more fun to watch a real racing.

LB TV Rating
Good news is the ratings were up 21% from last year. Bad news is that it is still dismal at a .34 overnight. Pressdog has some more detailed numbers breakdown. Bad news that they couldn't even pull a 1.0 in the host city. (LA overnight .80)

I think it seems appropriate - the real test is if Barfield is consistent and also what he does if Rahal screws up again while on probation....
I am not sure what else you can do short of sitting the driver out for a race and I do not think the series is in a place it can afford to do that right yet and I do not think that would be the right penalty at this time.... Same goes for a $$ fine...
Personally, I think both drivers need a good talking to behind closed doors from someone they both respect and/or fear to tell them a little about themselves... and I don't think any of us need to know who said what.... A little rivalry would be a good thing but these two need to be a little better before their rivalry has any real substance......
