Kirkwood and two F1 vets right next to him. What could possibly go wrong here?

Not only 2 F1 Vets, but F1 vets not known for an 'after you' / polite manner of racing.

Well, there was less drama than I anticipated and for once Kirkwood didn't stuff it into the wall either.

A mechanical DNF for Dixon. Hell has frozen over!
O'Ward looking like a real championship contender until he acctidentally turned on the Yakety Sax button.
Alexander Rossi fumbles another good result, it's getting more obvious why Andretti ditched him.
Rossi suffered a mechanical, it seems.
"Frustrating day for the team, a long day particularly for Pato and Alexander. Racing can be pretty cruel at times. Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn, and we have a lot to learn from today. Felix drove a great race, and he made the most of what he had. It was tricky to make hay the way the cautions fell. He did a great job there. Alexander was on for a great finish until the issues on the last lap. The team needs to look into that. We don't fully understand what was going on there yet, but it's a real shame because he also had a pretty strong race pace and was making the most of what he had. Pato's race, he had a little spin there, and we were really looking strong. That first caution hurt his strategy a bit, and we kind of ran out of tires there and that put us in an awkward position on fuel save. It is what it is."
