Gateway looks ugly in the daytime and great at night, maybe that’s just me

Malukas getting his first podium would be awesome, really cool kid.

Agreed, tbh.

NA18D racing.

BADASS

I was really rooting for David Malukas.

 

[gnomesayin]

What a charge from Malukas. Man, a couple more laps and who knows. I'm surprised the Ganassi cars that pitted made no real headway.

 

[aunty dive]

Newgarden, Malukas and McLaughlin.

The kid is pretty good.

 

[racingfan7]

Pretty good race overall. I think the fans really like the night racing from what it sounded like.

 

[Kiante]

That was well worth the wait.

Malukas podium and a top 5 for Taku, I'll take it.

 

[FLRacingFan]

DCR should make a real effort to bring Lundqvist up with HMD. He and Malukas would be a real good partnership for a long time I think.

Yeah I guess NBC wanted to use the Xfinity race as a lead-in but this should really always be a night race. It’s just better all around that way.

TV dictates too much in motorsports unfortunately just like college. Whatever has to make revenue and not lose money I guess.

Did catch the end of the race. Malukas looks like the real deal, hopefully Coyne can hang on to him for a few more years before he inevitably joins one of the bigger teams.
Great finish for Sato as well, he was lucky not to take out Power and himself though.
The championship battle is still wide open with two races and that stupid turn one at Portland to go. No one needs playoffs.

What a good ending for Newgarden and McLaughlin but the star was Malukas

 

[Tony_K]

Still think Malukas deserved rookie of the year at the Indy 500.

And I'll be sitting at that "stupid turn one at Portland" for 3 days. I think its great!

Indycars are at their best on ovals. Good to see Newgarden more solidly in the championship. Josef would be running away with the championship if he had those points now. In any other season 5 wins would have probably locked it up by now.

We've got a real dog fight on our hands...........

RK	DRIVER	POINTS	WINS	POLES	TOP 5	TOP 10
1	Will Power	482	1	4	10	11
2	Josef Newgarden	479	5	1	7	10
3	Scott Dixon	468

Scott is going to eek this out, isn't he?

Scott is going to eek this out, isn't he?

He's been further behind this late in the season before.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I wouldn’t rule out Ericsson either, only three points behind Dixon. 17-point spread between 1st and 4th. The last time it was this tight -

 

[Doc Austin]

Portland will probably turn the championship upside down.
