WHAT WE LEARNED: Power stays close despite Dario's Milwaukee luck
It had all of the makings of a karmic make-up call for Dario Franchitti.
Poor Dario was all tied up in knots after last week's Twin 275 races at Texas Motor Speedway, when the points he gained in his first-half victory were totally negated by a second-half seventh-place finish after drawing poorly in the halftime qualifying lottery. His very public and very extensive bemoaning of that fact may have earned him the sobriquet "Whine ‘Em Wallace" (a riff on the legendary Scot of Braveheart fame), but most at least begrudgingly agreed that he had a point.
Therefore, Franchitti's win at Milwaukee on Sunday could have appeared to be a balancing of the scales.
After all, as strong as he ran all day, it was not Dario's best race. And it was clearly apparent that his was not the fastest Dallara on the track, given how persistently Tony Kanaan's Lotus/KV Racing car kept passing him. Not to mention that pesky penultimate pit stop, when Helio Castroneves' Penske Racing team got the Brazilian out in front of Dario.
But Kanaan, as much in control of the race as he appeared to be, succumbed to a bit of KV Racing luck, spinning and wrecking on his own with only a handful of laps to go. Castroneves, meanwhile, had to pit out of the lead during TK's caution because of a cut left rear tire.
Thus, the fates apparently wanted Dario to win. They certainly did their part by eliminating his two strongest competitors. IndyCar race control pitched in as well, to be sure. After penalizing Takuma Sato for hitting one of his crew members on a pit stop, they elected not to follow that precedent when Franchitti collided with a tire and crew member as he pitted later in the race.
So Dario ended up with the trophy, the champagne, and the points. Problem is, Will Power didn't get Fate's memo, and with his steady, patient fourth-place finish he earned enough points to stay tied with Franchitti heading to Iowa Speedway this weekend.
It's clear that while a higher power might want salve Dario's wounded professional ego, it also wants to keep things interesting in the championship. That seems fair to me.
