Kiwis Dominating!

[vipernz]

Just have to kick it off here... how good is that Scott Dixon fella... and the other Scotty as well. 1 and 2 other other week... may Kiwis continue to kick arse!!! LOL

Yeah, one was born here and the other came here to make his name... 

Actually I'm not really surprised how well Scotty Mac is going. He seems to apply himself really well to learning and improving his trade.

Uh huh... Kiwi bragging alive and well LOL

Not surprised that SMac is doing well, but I am surprised how quick he got his head around the oval! 2nd on debut against some serious talent is def worth a celebration!!

Rookie on pole. Grosjean.
SM 5th
Power 12 I think after causing red flag in earlier Q session.
Scott D failed to advance from his first round.

A fairly processional race this morning.
Scott finished 8th.
He lost 2 places in the pits.

Great run by Scott from Auckland to finish 9th after qualifying poorly. Still leads the championship.

Scott from Hamilton didn't have the speed of the front runners today. And maybe some bad luck with lapped cars. I was listening to a commentary, not watching, and that's how it appeared to me.

Some reasonable differences in lap times among the field. Not as much as F1 but more than Supercars.

I knew Scotty was a talent, but I'm very impressed by how quickly he has settled into Indy.

I reckon it won't be long before he has his first win

Us Aussie have adopted Scotty

But seriously....why so many good racers from NZ ?....dominate Supercars and Indy
Not to mention F1, world super bikes the list goes on

Must be something in the sheep!

Nah, kiwis have always had numerous talents floating around, the last decade they have been getting more opportunities around the globe. Might be a marketing by the categories to boost their NZ market?

I don't think anyone expected anything less from Scotty. I have seen a few keyboard heroes hammering him on some social media but obviously they are just disgruntled fans from the Supercars era when he was embarrassing their favourite teams and drivers.

Scott is the best Penske qualifier at 15th for the Indy 500.
Will Power has to race off again to try to get there.
Penske cars seem slow.

[djr18fan]

Scott Dixon nabs pole.
The Honda engine seems superior at this track, or qualifying at least.

Power squeaks in to the line up.

I reckon it won't be long before there are 3 slightly nervous drivers in Team Penske
