Note: I actually wrote the this scheduled post on Monday night, to be posted this morning. That was before we heard Tuesday’s news that we had lost the great Parnelli Jones at the age of 90.

If the word “chaos” had been a drinking game, while watching the Chevrolet Grand Prix of Detroit, there would’ve been few people left that were still coherent enough to watch the end. Ironically, that was the best part. Scott Dixon avoided enough chaos to make it to the front on fuel strategy, then held off a teammate, a former teammate and overcame a lapped car on his way to his fifty-eighth career victory and assuming the points lead. It was not a bad day for a driver, who quietly qualified in the fifth starting spot and was not really considered a factor – until he was. Sooner or later, we are going to learn to never give up on Scott Dixon.
