"We made quite a few passes on quite a few people, and at the end, Marco got into the back of me and spun me around. He came up and apologized. Definitely didn't do it on purpose. It was just one of those days. That's racing." - Scott Dixon, discussing the last-turn incident at Infineon Raceway that resulted in Marco being penalized for avoidable contact, and proving that The Iceman is either an emotionless robot or considering a ride with AGR next year.

    YES! Thank you for catching that line...I was hoping I wasn't the only one. I love it when the red-and-white drivers deadpan some completely ridiculous line and you wonder if they actually meant to say that...priceless

    Or that Dixon is just a class act. Simple as that.

    I would LOVE to know what he said to the little twerp to his face. That was no accident. I don't know what Marco was thinking, but I sometimes believe he just doesn't think at all. With that move yesterday on Dixon, perhaps Marco should be the one thinking about a move to N****R.

    Dixon is a class act & some call him "boring" & a "robot". Other drivers stomp their feet & get vocal & some tell them to "GROW UP"... Odd.

    I'm sure Scott was told Marco was dropped behind him in the scoring... which made it easier to remain calm.

    JMO.
