Pick the Podium - IndyCar- Iowa IndyCar 250S, Newton, IA, July 17, 2020

[Retroram52]

IndyCar goes to the corn fields of Iowa this week-end to get in another race. Scott Dixon did not win last week, Race 2 so we shall see if he comes back for another win this week-end.

Colton Herta takes the top spot in P-1 followed by Connor Daly, Will Power, Santino Ferrucci, and two-time Iowa race winner Josef Newgarden rounded out the top five.

For Race 1 at Iowa, I'll go with Rossi, Newgarden, Power, Daly.

For Race 2, I'll go with Newgarden, Power, Hunter-Reay, and Herta.

This is getting to be the result for this series. Skunked. Apparently qualifying has little bearing on who is going to win the race. It could be anybody.

Newgarden wins Race 2 from the pole followed by Power, Rahal, and Pagenaud.
