I'm unsure about the cheese & veal connection alas cheese can be somewhat connected to Holland (duh) yet Luyendyk was sponsored by them veal sausages instead :haha: Yes, there is apparently a difference between German bratwurst and Dutch bratwurst and I come from a country where sausage is a prominent product as well :tongue:
Hehehe we also have a bit of a sausaage (or 'snag' as they are known here) culture going on.

OK seeing the replay I think Power has cause to be pissed off. Dixon suffering from a lack of spatial awareness there,

Had to chuckle when Dixon chose not to go back in the truck with Power.

That's not all:
A moment in practice where Andretti Autosport’s Grosjean nearly ran Power off the road was still fresh in his mind as well.

“And Grosjean is a piece of crap,” he proclaimed. “He needs a punch in the face.”

Kirkwood spins himself out after touching Pato and we got our L1 caution. Pedersen and Harvey made contact as well.
