#And okay we dont have Montoya anymore but still

i feel like the competition in Indycar has ramped up significantly in the past 6 years. In the 90s and 00s there were probably 4-6 top tier drivers that were most likely to win. Now there are easily 10-14 top tier drivers, any of whom could win any event at any time.
And races like long beach remind you how interesting strategy is with refueling. It was a bit of a slow burn race that ended in 15 laps of non-stop fireworks. Incredible racing! Top 5 within 3.5 seconds!
And I mean, Scott Dixon. who else does it like him!
