INDIANAPOLIS – Scott Dixon looked invincible in the first half of this IndyCar season.He won the first three races before ceding the fourth to Chip Ganassi Racing teammate Felix Rosenqvist.
Runner-up finishes at Iowa and in the Indianapolis 500 gave Dixon five top-twos in seven races, and a win at St. Louis extended the streak to six of eight.Then everything turned on one of the greatest drivers of his generation and, suddenly, a 96-point lead dwindled steadily down to 32.
Now, the Iceman needs everything he can muster to clinch his sixth IndyCar title.“It's still good to be on the leading side of it and we still have a pretty good window," Dixon said Saturday after a finishing eighth at Indianapolis.
