Weird race this morning, he was leading comfortably when I left for work but ended up falling right down the order for some reason and finishing ninth

Helio's weekend was worse though, so a decent finish at Fontana should wrap it up

 

[Jimbo]

This will come in handy on Sunday...

Sixth or better to wrap it up, regardless of what Helio does...

Yeah it was strange, I saw him dominating so I flicked forward a bit and there was a yellow and so a flicked forward again and he was behind a bit, i thought probably a pit stop, I'm still not sure. Then a couple of laps later he spins.

He can finally win it here, will be so stoked if he does!

Was a crazy finish too. Rahal should have won but a tyre blew out with 5 laps to go, then dixon passed Conway for the lead. Wouldn't have mattered as Conway ran out of gas right near the line and just crossed, albeit behind most of the cars. I think Pagenaud ran out just after crossing the line.

Everyone has had their share of bad luck this year

Really looking forward to Sunday morning

Never seen a car spin in the air as fast as this http://bit.ly/1zWKCUk Big crash. Lucky to get out of it as lightly as he has

Qualifying could hardly have gone any worse for Power. Castroneves on pole, Power starting from 21st.

Hoping Aleshin is ok,

Patience will be the key today. Will only needs 6th, assuming Helio wins

It's a given that there'll be a few crashes, so hopefully he can stay out of trouble

 

[pennywisealfie]

If Helio comes 2nd, Power can finish 15th and still win and if Helio gets 3rd then Will can finish 20th. So hopefully Helio doesn't win and Will finishes and he should get it.

 

[Jimbo]

Yep

For all the work Will needs to do, Helio also needs to stay out of trouble

Bring it...

 

[Jimbo]

Pagenaud goes two laps down, so he's out of the equation

 

[AusKnightRKO]

Power inside the top 15, Whilst JPM and Hinch fight for the lead.

 

[Jimbo]

Halfway done, and no cautions. RHR and JPM are doing Power a favour

 

[AusKnightRKO]

Power up to 6th... HC leading. 85laps to go.

 

[Jimbo]

Closing in on JPM too, for a bit more breathing space

 

[pennywisealfie]

RHR gone. Field comes back to Helio, Power up to 5th. Lets do this!!!

 

[Jimbo]

Let's see how they stand after the pitlane shuffle

 

[Jimbo]

Power jumps JPM on the way out for fourth


Bring it home Will!!

 

[AusKnightRKO]

Will is going Nuts.

 

[Jimbo]

Power leads!! Bonus point...
