    Who cares...

    Dario still took the championship, plus Dixon also suffered from the crash aswell. Get over it. Maybe if Dixon carried on and came 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th and Dario didnt get any points, thats when it would be punshiable.

    So stop crying and bitching - thats how racing goes.

    Clearly a bad choice, but...

    ... people don't understand that when you are in an accident you don't think clearly which is natural, I know from experience. Although it looks slightly dodgy, Dixon is a fair driver - always has been and always will be. If it was two back-runners in this situation, no one would care.

    Besides, with this tight gap it makes thing more interesting for the final round. This will test Dario and Dixon for sure.

    ...

    Im not going to say whos wrong whos right, but none of you drive these cars so you cant be 100% sure what goes on when your in the middle of a spin like that or what the drivers are actually thinking or how much time they have to think where to position the car, its all easy for us to say whos at fault when we are on the sidelines, Also for what it counts i have seen and raced against scott in NZ, i really cant see him doing anything like that on purspose...(Im not saying he was right or wrong though), Good Luck 2 all of them for the last round, Cheers

    daflash is an idiot!

    his tires just gain traction and somehow the momentum turned his wheels too? clearly he turned the wheel the other way to take dario out of the race. also, you talk about michael being a cry baby, what are you doing on this message board? you sound like robin miller!

    LIKE A GENTLEMAN!!!

    You're all seeing this incident wrong. Dixon was obviously jealous that Ashley thinks Dario is such a GENTLEMAN! He was just getting out of the way so Danica could get through... like a gentleman... LIKE A GENTLEMAN!!!

    Look more closely

    Dixon turns his steering wheel to intentionally block Dario, otherwise, he would have turned it the other way and potentially avoided contact with any car!
    Come-on IRL, look more closely!!

    Dixon did nothing wrong

    it was a racing accident nothing more, Micheal Andretti has always been a cry baby!

    Accident

    Guys Im a fan of both Dixon and Franchitti even though Im a Kiw. They are both great guys. I think Its just another racing incident and at the end of the day Franchitti fans he still finished ahead of Dixon. Now whether it was an accident or not this sets up one hell of a last round and may the best man win the race. Good luck to both of them!
