92nd Running of the Indianapolis 500

[Hoosier Daddy]

Matchups:

Wilson +105 over Rahal
I love Graham but Wilson is consistent and is under the radar.

Carpenter +115 over Scheckter
Scheckter is a talented guy, but he is a crasher.

Rice -125 over Manning
Rice has shown some speed late in the month.

Power -120 over Servia
Power is a gasser. He hasn't figured out ovals yet, but he is a racer.

Patrick -109 over Scheckter
Danica drives smart and Scheckter takes too many risks.

Simmons +121 over Viso
Viso is a talent but also risks too much. Simmons will drive smart. He got jobbed out of his IndyCar Series ride LY and is in the Indy Lights Series now. He has a point to prove.

To win:
Dixon +305
Kanaan +515
Andretti +845

Dixon is the man to beat and both of these guys are due and should already have won this race. Dixon got jipped by a bad call for blocking 2 years ago.

Andretti is good at this place and on superspeedways but terrible on short intermediate ovals. He's been quiet all month.

Great race today! One of the best I have ever been to. Several cars had a chance to win, but the best guy won today. Dixon was the class of the field. This is a great outcome for the Indy Car Series. Lots of hate coming out of the race:

Patrick vs. Briscoe
Kanaan vs. Marco
Marco vs. his crew and engineers
Penske vs. AGR

Lots of yellows and a long time to clean them up. Race had no rhythm but a lot of future storylines, which is what the series needs.
