    Watch the changes made at the pit stops wing adjustments to get the car sorted - the perfect car at the beginning of the race will often become loose mid race.

    Yellows and fuel will come into play - it's all about the last 50 laps

    The cars look great,

    Is that a new addition though, the sort of F1 Halo looking screen?

    Very anonymous. Only has some rookies, a guy who hates ovals (Chilton) and cars that stopped under green behind him.

    He is 20th now. Maybe it’s just due to pits stops, I’m not sure.

    He was doing well to stay ahead of Dixon. May of finally found a decent balance after the 3rd stop.

    How good is Fernando's car compared to others!? Is it the equivalent of Dixon driving a Mercedes and alonso driving a sauber or is everyone fairly even!?

    Not that i know anything, but i think i heard the American lads saying that Dixon was positioning himself there to conserve fuel.

    Bit of a nasty smash there.

    Yeah he probably was but but the they were pulling away from the rest.

    Askew lucky there. He'll be shaken up from that. Looks like Daly touched the kerbing and lost it

    Rossi's penalty certainly giving Dixon the advantage. Maybe Sato or Pato could spring a suprise.

    It'll come down to fuel on the final 10 laps, depending on yellows!!

    They might red flag it and do a NASCAR style green white checker finish.

    That was big, big impact.

    Jaysis, that's some hit into the tyres at the pit entry. Hope Spencer recovers ok from that monster hit.

    Hate when it ends under yellow. Surprised Dixon seemed to be struggling for a finish. Looked so comfortable all day. Nasty crash at the end, hopefully spencer is ok.
    All over for another year, enjoyed it as always.

    Pagenaud had a nightmare. Alonso was rubbish. That ahole Ferrucci did great. Andretti and Hunter-Ray were nowhere.

    Good race.

    Absolute disaster for Alonso, barely saw him all day. Will we see him race here again I wonder.
