When you look at Sunday’s race you have to start by looking at Power. He is the point’s leader, he won this race a year ago and he can clinch this year’s title with a win. Power is 36 points clear of Ryan Hunter-Reay in the standings with Helio Castroneves 41 points back. Last year, Power won the race in Baltimore as he started on the pole and led 70 of the 75 laps and last week he finished second to teammate Ryan Briscoe at Sonoma. With two races left last year he led by 11 points but lost the championship; two years ago he led by 17 points and lost the final race. Power’s lead of 38 points is the biggest difference between first and second since 2008.

Chevy Dominance

Chevrolet has dominated IndyCar this season as they have already clinched the Engine Manufacturer’s championship. Chevrolet had not been in IndyCar since 2005 as Honda supplied the engines. This year Chevy came back in force as their cars have won 10 of the 13 races. The Chevy drivers, Power, Hunter-Reay and Castroneves are the top three drivers in the standings. “To me, the Chevy relationship goes back a long time when we had the first Chevy Indy engine [in 1985], so to me this is just a repeat,” Roger Penske said. “I think to have Chevy come into the series was a big plus. We have three engine manufacturers now, and there’s a lot of good competition between the brands. I think the league has done a very good job in monitoring each engine and being sure it’s a level playing field. To see them win the manufacturer’s championship in their first year is very rewarding.”

Picks

There is not much value on the sports betting board at the sportsbook since Power has been so dominant. We will bet on Power at 2-1 and Castroneves at 5.5-1. Click on NASCAR
