RYAN HUNTER-REAY, 2ND - JAMES HINCHCLIFFE, 1ST - TONY KANAAN, 3RD
This oval is the tightest of the tight. Only 7/8 of a mile and clearly meant for another type of racecar. Even with its turn, turn, turn tightness the drivers maintain an average miles per hour in the mid 170's for 250 laps.
The winner was James Hinchcliffe, winning his third race this season, who remained in the lead a good portion of the race. Followed closely by his team-mate, Ryan Hunter-Reay, last year's champion. Rounding out the top three was Tony Kanaan, winner of this year's 500.
Takuma Sato did not finish due to mecanical problems.
Driver of the day, other than the winner, was Ryan Hunter-Reay. Due to problems he had been bumped to the end of the pack, passed everyone to end up in second.
