I think we can see there's separation of cars. #indycar BTW: There hasn't been pack racing here for some time.

As predicted on Motorsports Unplugged Radio this morning, Ganassi would be hard to beat but as a team, Andretti Autosport, if they hook-up could control the race.
LAP 20 of 228 - Top 10 - TAGS, Dixon, Rahal, Power, Andretti, RHR, Hinchtown, Kanaan, Briscoe, and Pagenaud.
Trouble with Tagliani and he drops to P4 at around 207mph - Dixon assumes the lead
LAP 31 YELLOW Flag - Charlie Kimball smacks the wall in a single car incident - racing hard with EJ Viso
This helps Franchitti get back on the lead lap after unplanned pitstop for adjustments put him one lap down

Yeah, #indycar just had a crash while @NBCSN was on break... Think its time to go back to the race guys...
Commercials breed cautions
LAP 35 - Has the top 10 be Dixon, Rahal, Power, Andretti, Tagliani, Hinchcliffe, Kanaan, RHR, Briscoe, and Pagenaud - all cars comeinto the pits – it’s crazy down there
In the pits, TK gets wing damage - Power back in the pits with right rear tire problems - Pagenaud overshoots pit - TK back for a new nose and front wing - Franchitti back in for suspension adjustment
