    Do yourself a favor and watch the overhead view.

      Do yourself a favor and watch the replays too. Like Wally just said, if he turns sharp right, he still hits the guy.

        Good decision by Beaux Barfield. He made the right decision. The rule is the rule. You hit a person, a tire, fuel hose, etc., you get a penalty. Simple as that.

          Extend Beau Barfield's contract!

          This guy is calling them right for IndyCar. He needs to stay long-term.

            Bring Barnhart back... I remember Toronto 2011 which was as incident filled as today, and almost nobody got penalized... Today Barfield was like an F1 steward... Let the guys race l!!

              In every replay I have seen a crewmember gets hit by a car...
              Just wait 'till next year!

                Now, if he only could replicate what they have for ALMS. Any driver penalized should be in the penalty box for so many seconds. That would be the icing on the cake for me.

                  Barfield let Ganassi specifically get away with whatever they wanted. Toronto 2011 included. Wouldn't surprise me one bit to hear in years down the road that Barnhart was in Ganassi's back pocket.

                    It seems like Wally and the guys in the booth didn't bother to listen to Beaux's explanation. They didn't even analyze the overhead replay, and only showed it once (while Beaux explained the decision).

                      Yup. Just look at the tire marks and then watch the angle Dixon takes that time.

                        No matter where he is. Got it

                        Next race watch where the Ganassi guys stand next to Helio...lol...

                        Lordy...watch what happens now.

                          I like beau but I thought he was wrong in this call. He did good with the other calls today. Tough job being race director.

                            Yep, I totally agree that will likely be the response from Ganassi. The Ganassi guys run over someone, and it's someone else's fault.

                            It's ALWAYS someone else's fault with those Ganassi boys. They are whiners, pure and simple.

                              Fans would have a series where everyone involved worked under one week contracts so all positions could be changed on every whim.
