Well, you aren't wrong there; more often than not, that trophy ends up being hoisted by someone from Penske or Ganassi.
I’d still give Andretti Autosport a fighting chance, and don't sleep on Panther Racing—they've been showing some seriously impressive results lately. Plus, we have Ed Carpenter in the mix as a driver-owner, which always adds an interesting layer to the field.
Maybe even Tony Kanaan over at KV could pull it off? If I had to narrow it down, I’d say there are about ten drivers total who actually have a legitimate shot at walking away with the win.

It’s been interesting watching the practice sessions; there have been very few yellow flags so far, mostly just due to debris on the track. Honestly, though? It makes me a little nervous. Between the brand-new cars and this being their first big oval race, I can't help but worry we might see a lot of contact out there.
Behind the scenes, there is actually a bit of a scramble happening to try and hit that legendary number 33 for the race, simply because they are running short on engines.
