that is such a great piece of trivia'Won the race but was not the fastest car.....not in practice or qualifying (Dixon's both), and having been watching T&S during the race, I don't remember who turned the fastest lap, but it wasn't Helio.
https://racer.com/2021/06/09/indycar-cl ... -decision/IndyCar closing on Toronto replacement decision
Options to replace the cancelled Honda Indy Toronto NTT IndyCar Series event are coming into view.
RACER has learned three leading scenarios have developed to solidify the calendar, which has 16 of 17 races confirmed. Mid-Ohio, due to be held over the July 4 weekend, is led by the same Green Savoree Race Promotions group that runs Toronto and is the first option to be converted into a doubleheader.
The second is World Wide Technologies Raceway (formerly known as Gateway), set for a Saturday race on August 21, which could be expanded to twin races on the Illinois oval. And the third option is to go without replacing Toronto and stick with a 16-race schedule. No other tracks are known to be under doubleheader consideration.

The NTT IndyCar Series will have at least five more years of racing to hold on the streets of St. Petersburg after the Floridian city approved a five-year extension for the Firestone Grand Prix.
Easy to get when you left an uncompetitive F1 team.
Yup. Here's a video of K-Mag and RoGro reuniting at Detroit this week. They both seem to be enjoying themselves again.
Can't see Ericsson doing the business. But it's anyone's from Pagenaud up.1 Patricio O'Ward 299
2 Alex Palou 298
3 Scott Dixon 263
4 Josef Newgarden 248
5 Rinus VeeKay 243
6 Simon Pagenaud 243
7 Marcus Ericsson 211
8 Graham Rahal 209
9 Colton Herta 202
10 Takuma Sato 181
11 Will Power 169
12 Scott McLaughlin 164
Agree that Pagenaud is likely out of the game. I just mentioned him because of the points total and his experience. But Penske is generally really out of it this year. Really not sure why.Vassago wrote: ↑2 years ago Can't see Pagenaud in the mix. He's only so high because his best race happened to be the double points at IMS.
Dixon has one win but has been relatively quiet elsewhere and that fuel issue at Indy 500 really set him back.
I'm really impressed by Palou. The guy doesn't make any mistakes for the time being.
Oh, for sure.
Some would say fuel issue, some would say "got shafted by the rules".
