Penske and Ganassi are the easy picks. The one-off/smaller teams have the pace this year to keep up. The issue in the race is that you have to complete around 7 pit stops and that's where the big dogs really have the edge.
Taking them out....and I really hope neither win. I think Servia is my pick. Newman Haas has really stepped up their program to get back to their glory days. As many races as they have won, they have never won Indy.
Buddy Rice is my darkhorse. Panther has finished 2nd 3 years in a row. Rice hasn't been in an IndyCar in 3 years and qualified 7th. Shows he can still get it done and belongs in a car full-time.
