Another boring road race; not as bad as yesterday&#8217;s Xfinity series race, but not particularly watchable. As usual I&#8217;m not sure if the television coverage didn&#8217;t contribute to the lack of watchability. It was not visually stimulating, nor engaging.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Motorsport News:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsport.com\/indycar\/news\/dixon-wanted-svg-to-try-indycar-\/10507171\/?utm_source=RSS&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=RSS-INDYCAR&amp;utm_term=News&amp;utm_content=www\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dixon wanted SVG to try IndyCar<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsport.com\/indycar\/news\/dixon-indycar-wins-feel-better-as-you-get-older\/10507268\/?utm_source=RSS&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=RSS-INDYCAR&amp;utm_term=News&amp;utm_content=www\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IndyCar race wins &#8220;feel better&#8221;
