I could go either way with working on cars under these conditions. For safety, I would think that we would want to work on then. Either way, it needs to be the same for everyone.

Looks like the conditions in Alabama may lend itself to a decent show today. Still a 40% chance of rain but it's currently clear. There will probably be some standing water off circuit so keeping it on the gray today will be important.

They've been allowed to refuel and change the set up of the cars for a dry race.

I don't think he wants to remain 2 laps down but a little over enthusiastic.

Congrats to Newgarden and Penske.

Bourdais finished 5th but is still up there regarding the driver's championship.

i've been avoiding results and haven't seen anything yet; just know that Sunday was stopped at some point. I'd like to see what led up to it, but NBCSN and IndyCar YouTube only have Monday's action available, best I can tell. Does anyone have some insight on how to watch Saturday? Thx in advance. PM me if you want...

I couldn't watch the Sunday race, so on Monday night I foind out the rainout. I watched the Monday portion only.

Most of the race was rather boring, or at least the NBC announcers and camera director didn't help.

But it got interesting when the track became moist. Bourdais was a few minutes short of a miracle.

Unfortunately, it was rather boring. Turning it into a timed race race didn't help and listening to some drivers, I got the sense that they wanted to get it over and done with and move on to Indianapolis.

I didnt mind the race. Different strategies being employed and some good wheel to wheel racing.

The rain provided further excitement and Bourdais and Dixon side by side at the flag. I'll take that

When the race resumed on Monday the cars had been refuelled and it was declared a wet race, therefore adversly impacting on any strategy regarding, fuel and tyre stops.

I was surprised they allowed the teams to refuel and the race itself declared a timed, wet race. I think they should have continued the race from Lap 23 and raced the remainder of the 90 laps. Fuel and tyre strategies would definitely have come into play.
