Really enjoyed this race. Interesting how O'ward did not have to use much p2p to seal that win.
I think JJ has gotten much better this year. Just wish they would give him some coverage.... |

Race Result:
Congrats to Pato O'Ward. Unfortunately I missed the race, which couldn't be helped, so it is highlights for me. SPAM needed a good result and that puts O'Ward fifth in the driver's table, though team mate Felix Rosenqvist didn't fare so well, finishing 16th. 2nd place, from last year's winner and reigning driver's champion Alex Palou, puts him top of the driver's table, with 144 points, closely followed by Scott Mclaughlin who was 6th on 141 points. Three time winner at Barber Josef Newgarden, uncharacteristically finished 14th and is 3rd in the table. Pole sitter Veekay finished 3rd. It was not a bad day for Chevrolet, who had 4 cars in the top 6 finishers, including the winning car. |

I refuse to get Disney's Star+, I already spend too much on cable TV and Netflix.
I just watched onboard cameras. |

I believe I'm stealing NBC credentials from another 10ther but it's really annoying to pay for Peacock, but not get NBC? |

I watched the Fast Forward highlights, 30mins, and based on that it looked like a good race overall. However, my take away is Grosjean. He kept his nose clean last season, very likely because he was the new boy but it looks very much like he's gone back to his old ways, when he was in F1. That banging into Rahal was unnecessary and I am surprised Race Control didn't go after him. I am just waiting for the next incident with Grosjean and seeing if he says ''Ericsson hit us''.

This is Graham Rahal's take on it. If it does set a precedent, he had this to say: ''So, to me, if race control doesn’t want to do anything then they’re not going to do anything, but when we go and punt him they better not do anything to me — which, in the past I’ve been penalized for a lot less than that.” https://racer.com/2022/05/01/rahal-f...e-race-tussle/ |

My guess is that the officials let it go because Grosjean didn't gain a position and Rahal's car was apparently not damaged. If Rahal punts Grosjean in the future and puts him off there will surely be a penalty. I still think obviously intentional contact should be penalized. Something along the lines of taking away 20 points or so should encourage drivers to keep it clean. I'd prefer the officials didn't encourage NASCAR style driving. |
