Mid-Ohio: First Impressions

1. Now the championship is interesting.

2. Why pick anyone other than Scott Dixon at Mid-Ohio?

3. This wasn't a great race but was by far better than Belle Isle. Rain would've helped. Track changes have to be done. Moving turn two back a little and making one straightaway connecting turn nine to the carousel are what I would do.

4. Great race for Bourdais, Marco Andretti did a great job getting a top ten, so did Hildebrand.

5. Well, after back-to-back races ending under caution, we have had two caution free-races. No more complaining please. Sometimes these things just happen.

6. The NBC Sports Network guys did a great job on ABC. I hope the average/causal fans who flipped on the race were impressed with these guys.

7. Mid-Ohio needs a new pit lane.

8. Chevrolet has won two sets of four straight races. Honda won three races between those two streaks. If the trend holds, pencil in Honda for Sonoma and Baltimore.

9. Not looking forward to two weeks off before Sonoma. Hopefully, next season does not have these big gaps, especially during the summer time.
