The first 1/4 was fairly racey, but it petered out after that. Stands to reason as well that with a race tomorrow that people wanted to keep their noses clean.
Dixon has sometimes just boringly consistency'ed his way to titles, but he's certainly deserving this one.
Sato would have won that though if it wasn't for that pit problem.
Watched a Hungarian feed, so lacking info on the race. But was that another NASCAR traction compound on the track that people were avoiding in the corners?
I don't think so, it wasn't mentioned during the Swedish feed and no one elsewhere on the internet wrote about it. I think it was marbles.

Fair enough. Not sure if it was marbles though. It was there since the start.

'Don't know what it was but I don't think it was marbles either as some did go up there and didn't lose it......
I'll pay a closer attention today....
When did NASCARb run there? Maybe it's the goo but just too old to be an effect on the Firestones.
Those were the days my friends, we thought they'd never end.....

@John@MonteCristo 'Just checked....NASCAR doesn'teven run there.
I think the lighter colour is just the way the groove for Indy cars looks there.....
The trucks are running there as I write this.

Why bother designing cars that can race each other when you can dump some sticky goo on the racing surface and be done with it?
