It's great to find out that Ryan Hunter-Reay will be there. But I feel it's more important for his championship hunt and his team that he will be there on the road courses and street circuits, especially Watkins Glen.

If you're saying that you won't be watching this race, then you will miss what was one of the best oval races last season...Only Chicagoland and Kentucky were more action-packed and exciting. This 7/8-mile bull ring suits IndyCars very well and there are multiple lines to race...It is a short, but very fast track. Last year's race rocked... |

Iowa is the best new oval built in the last ten years.

I think it's surprising that Mutoh is so slow...this is one of the best track for him (second and third in the last two races here)...

What happened to Milka? I wish she'd leave IndyCar she does does nothing good for the sport and is quite frankly an embarrassment. |

The surprises are definitely Marco and Tagliani. Will Power on pole also. I thought he was a road course specialist. They all did a great job.
Mutoh, oh dear, what happened? Was the chassis that he crashed in testing the only good car that the team had? It's obvious that the new one is just not up to it. |

I missed the start of the race. Anyone know why Will Power dropped back?
