That's not the problem. Monaco has special heritage, just as Indianapolis and Le Mans. Sonoma is no more special than Mid-Ohio or Hungaroring.

If Laguna Seca had been run instead of Sonoma I could understand double points since that track has a lot of history in AOWR and it's a classic track but it's still a dumb idea no matter how you slice it. Sonoma is not a classic track. Mid-Ohio and Hungaroring are above Sonoma, imo.

It being a track of note or not had nothing to do with it, it was the continually stupid idea that motorsports needs some sort of playoff system or grand final.

Another acceptable response is to just keep saying "Game Seven Moments" over and over again until you start bleeding from your ears.

Why RHR didn't go to the pits on the last laps?

Because he is the Penske driver and was ahead of Montoya.

Yeah Dixon was incredibly lucky in this race. Maybe Juan will win one more trip to the winner's circle next season than his closest rivals...
