What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.

When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016

Graham Rahal on winning at Mid-Ohio, Instagram, August 3rd 2015

Let's wait and watch.
