Scott Dixon won his third consecutive IRL race and closed to within 24 points of championship leader Dario Franchitti with five rounds remaining.
The New Zealander moved to the front in a processional race at the Mid Ohio road course by playing a canny strategic game. But Franchitti minimised the damage by following him home second.

Scott Dixon completed a hat-trick of IRL victories at Watkins Glen with a measured and tactically shrewd drive.
But there were unpleasant scenes after the race as a confrontation between Tony Kanaan and Sam Hornish sparked a pit lane brawl.
It began after the pair twice made contact during the race.

Dario Franchitti held the Richmond round in a stranglehold for the start. He led all bar nine laps at the short oval to win the second race in a week and stretch his championship advantage.
It was a far more low-key race after the dramas of the Iowa encounter last week. But the Penske drivers were [...]

Indy Car’s first race at Iowa was a spectacular with most of the leading drivers eliminated in big crashes.

The pack was already running under caution following a spectacular collision between Marco Andretti and Dan Wheldon. Andretti moved high on the track to pass two cars but Wheldon was already there. The two clashed wheels and Andretti’s [...]

Gary Paffett took a magnificent win at Oschersleben in last year’s Mercedes C-Class.
If that weren’t surprising enough, team mate Paul di Resta now leads the title race in a 2005 Mercedes! He is tied at the top with Martin Tomcyk.
Oschersleben produced a massively different result to that seen at Hockenheim and leaves the title race [...]

The Chip Ganassi team’s form is ominous for their rivals ahead of next month’s Indianapolis 500.
Dan Wheldon dominated the Kansas 300 and Scott Dixon would surely have made it a Ganassi one-two but for a careless pit lane infraction.
Hacing started fourth Wheldon immediately made his way to the front. He sliced past both Penskes in [...]

Helio Castroneves gave his Penske team a much needed shot in the arm with his victory on the streets of St Petersburg, following the Ganassi team’s rout at Homestead last weekend.
