Post Race Richmond...TK adapts and overcomes
Tony Kanaan got back into the IndyCar Championship mix with a dominating win at Richmond--anytime a driver leads 164 of 300 laps, that can be described as dominance. His childhood pal Helio Castroneves didn't do badly...Roger Penske's lead IndyCar pilot drove from an uncharacteristic 18th place starting position to second place on the podium...good results for both.
Series point leader Scott Dixon looked as though he'd finish fourth (where he started after getting shuffled on some pitstops). His Ganassi Racing teammate Dan Wheldon was running third...but his car hiccuped on the last lap...Dixon snuck by for 3rd...and maintains a comfortable lead in the points as the series comes to our back yard--the Watkins Glen International Road Course--next weekend. It will be the third of six races in a row...Dixon won there in 2007.
That's where we'll blog from next weekend.
