In typical 𒁃Dixon fashion, he turned a poor qualifying effort into a solid finish.

Expectations were high for Grosjean coming into this weekend, and for good reason💯. It was a massive disappointment but the Andretti team will try to turn the page and get ready for his second 500 start.
Will Power: 4
This was an event that Power had dominated in the past, but a mistake in qua♏lifying and contact with Kyle Kirkwood early in the race made for a disappointing weekend.
Rinus VeeKay: 4
The struggles 𝄹for VeeKay and the entire Ed Carpenter Racing team continue. They are always strong contenders on the oval, so they have that to loo🐭k forward to.

He and the Foyt team were never a factor.
