Colton Herta may or may not have been tagged by Dalton Kellett in Turn 2 of the opening lap, causing Herta to spin into the wall

Scott Dixon, the pole sitter for Sunday's 101st Indianapolis 500 and 2008 winner of the race for Chip Ganassi Racing, will be the subject of a feature-length documentary co-produced by GFC Films and United Pictures Home Entertainment.

The documentary, yet untitled and scheduled for release in 2018, will focus on Dixon's dedication, success and will to defy personal limitations in his racing career. Dixon has 40 career Indy car wins, fourth on the all-time list, and is a four-time Verizon IndyCar Series champion.

"To see his name near the top of the all-time winners' list is a testament to the man," team owner Chip Ganassi at today's announcement said. "Someone needs to know that story and I think we're very fortunate to have the people interested in making this a documentary."

Filming will take place at the Indianapolis 500 and other Verizon IndyCar Series events, as well as with CGR's successful sports car program, of which Dixon is a part at endurance races including the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans.

"I feel very fortunate," Dixon said. "I'm very passionate about racing, I love driving cars, I love racing and I love racing with the best team in the world. I'm lucky enough to do Indianapolis 500s, INDYCAR races, going to Le Mans.

"I think the story with what we do and how we do it, and a lot of people don't get to see behind the scenes with big races like the Indianapolis 500 and Le Mans. It's going to be really cool. I feel very proud and very special to be a part of it."

I'm continuing my CART 2001 re-watch and I also now think this retarded popoff valve business is what drove Honda and Toyota away. Also; Memo Gidley was massively underrated as a driver.

I wonder if this new chassis formula will allow teams to make their own parts for it (the chassis) again, down the line. Assuming the budget is there of course.
