Tony Schumacher

Melanie Troxel
0.101 | 4.839 | 284.03
Schumacher has an even better record here than Dixon, and he holds a 7-3 advantage over Melanie. It's a powerhouse battle of two powerhouse owners.

They leave together but Melanie's engine starts pumping smoke by 400 feet which gets increasingly worse.

Schumacher gets lane choice over Dixon by .001 second - one ten-thousandth of a second. The finals pairs the only two racers to win Indy since the turn of the century.
