ouch! feel very bad for Sebastian Bourdais - suffers multiple fractures and will have to sit out the Indy 500. Thankfully he is alive.

Great back to back wins for Honda and HPD in Detroit, also the NSX GT3 scored it's first victory at Belle Island Detroit. Great month and weekend for Honda, made especially sweet with the victories in "Motor City".

So, it all comes down to this Sunday. Double points awards. I was playing around with the championship scenarios. 6 drivers have a mathematic chance but I think it comes down to Newgarden, Dixon, Castroneves and Pagenenaud.
Dixon and Newgarden are in the same boat: win the race & win the title.
I'm looking forward to this race. Pulling for Newgarden.
