Missed watching this race as I was at Lime Rock Park. I did read about Roger Penske calling strategy for Will Power who comfortably kept Rossi and Dixon behind.

Rossi is 26 points behind Dixon entering the last two races of the season. I hope the racing is fair and tight as we head to the finale at Sonoma.

Power elected to gas it and go for a splash near the end. Rossi was on three stop fuel conservation. Power just had too much for him at the end. I'll be at Sonoma all three days. Double points. Then wine tasting on Monday.
