2022 R9 Mid-Ohio SCC

Bottom post of the previous page:

Race Control waited with the FCY not to screw Herta & McLaughlin. Hinchcliffe calls them out on that.

They've done that every race the entire season. Has Hinch not been paying attention?

[Vassago]

TV pundits paying attention to the rules? Since when?

Now we get the extended caution to review the running order.

[John]

Kellett making himself useful again.

Edit: OK, Harvey tapped him.

[Vassago]

Calderon conks out.

[John]

Pato out. Tatiana stops as well.

[Vassago]

Herta didn't pit under SC. WTF?

[John]

Herta didn't pit under SC. WTF?

What the hell was they thinking?

[John]

Andretti on Andretti violence and Rossi punts RoGro off.

Ilott parks it and another Chevy engine has died.

[Vassago]

Rossi is a dead duck at Andretti anyway so he might as well GTFO.

[John]

Goddamn there'll be some choice words said in the Andretti camp tonight.

RoGro rubbing Rossi under caution and punting Colton off.

[Vassago]

Rossi clashed into DeFrancesco too. He truly doesn't give a damn anymore.

[John]

Andretti should just park Rossi for the rest of the season and give Kirkwood a headstart for 2023.

[Vassago]

McLaughlin wins!

[John]

Mclaughlin
Palou
Power
Veekay
Dixon
Ericsson

Decent race.

What the hell was they thinking?

Borrowed Ricciardo's race strategist from McLaren.

Decent race as you said though. Yay for our Bus Bro!

[MonteCristo]

Standings - top 10:
1 Marcus Ericsson 321
2 Will Power 301
3 Josef Newgarden 287
4 Álex Palou 286
5 Pato O'Ward 256
6 Scott Dixon 254
7 Scott McLaughlin 252
8 Alexander Rossi 229
9 Pagenaud 217
10 Colton Herta 212

9 races down, 8 to go. You'd think that Rossi and back are largely out of it now (short of going on the most epic run in history). But still very close.
