Pick the Podium: IndyCar - GoPro Grand Prix of Sonoma, Sonoma, CA

Caution. Somebody is the tire barriers.

Down to 20 laps.

The championship is going to finish in a tie, with Dixon winning on the most victories tie-breaker.

Scott Dixon is a four time IndyCar Series champion!

Wow, Dixon wins the race and the championship. Dixon, RHR, and Kimball for third. Good race.

Well I got one right, out of place though. Looks like 46&2 got the most points and Congrats. You take the IndyCar competition championship this year. Well done my good man!!

Well, I didn't score any points today, but I still - barely - managed to hang on for the Pick the Podium title.

Retroram52 got 3 points for correctly picking RHR to finish 2nd.

Forty_Sixand2 got five points for picking Dixon to win, & one point for picking RHR out of position.

Thus, our season final totals are:

IndyAndy: 20 points
Retroram52: 19 points
Forty_Sixand2: 6 points.

See you guys on the F1 side, & back here come the 2016 IndyCar Season.

One freakin' point. How close was that Indy? I guess if the IndyCar championship was very close, so can our championship. On we go to the F-1 Title.

I can't tell you how pleased I am that Power being an idiot is what cost JPM and Penske a championship. His whining at the end was like music to my ears. Congrats to Dixon.

Tough luck for Graham, but not a lot to hang their heads about. A single car team with the weaker engine and aero package, which had sponsorship troubles managed to take a 4 time champ, and two others who won championships (that drive for teams with 28 championships combined) and he took them to within 15 laps of the end of the season with a fighting chance. Pretty damn impressive if you ask me.

I do wonder how much getting punted at Pocono (and here) really cost him. If he had finished Pocono (and only 10 did, so it stands to reason he'd be no worse than 11th) and he finished where he was today, would that have been enough?

Just finished the race. Awesome race, and much respect to Dixon, a true class act and great driver.

I like the resurgence of RHR. Started out the year very crappy and it only got worse. Got two wins after that horrible year. Not bad at all and am looking forward to maybe a second championship in 2016 from him.
