Although the three Team Penske cars make up the Top-Five, it doesn’t quite feel like they are dominating as much as they did last year. If you’ll recall, the four Penske cars took the first four spots in qualifying but did not win the race. That honor went to Chip Ganassi Racing’s Scott Dixon.

In the month of June, there have been a couple of incidents take place that have been glossed over with humor but have a serious undertone. On Sunday June 3, GM executive Mark Reuss crashed the IndyCar Pace Car at Belle Isle just after leaving the pits as he was about to lead the twenty-four cars to the green flag for the second of two races in the Chevrolet Grand Prix of Detroit. It was a hard hit but Reuss and his passenger, IndyCar official Mark Sandy, walked away shaken but uninjured.
