Race control reporting that Scheckter is preparing to resume the race; granted, he's 25 laps down at the moment, but with no appearable damage, he should be back out(I'm guessing he'll finish anywhere from 17th-19th)

Hornish loses the lead! One of the back markers got in front of them(looked like Duno........ :x :shock: :shock: ) and Wheldon and Dixon said, "Thank you!" as they passed him

the top 6 or 7 cars have separated into two distinct groups; Dixon, Wheldon and Hornish in one group, with Kanaan, Patrick and Castroneves in a second group

:wtf: Marco slows down......way down! Pulls to the low-side; could we be looking at his 6th DNF in 7 races.............. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Castroneves still trying to pass Patrick; Patrick's hugging the low-line around the corners, holding him off for 5th

Andretti reporting that he has lost 5th and 6th gear; he's hitting the rev limiter in 4th gear........ :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Teams up-n'-down pit road getting ready for a third round of stops(again, the pit windows around 45-50 laps, so expect stops any moment...)

Hornish pits; Dixon assumes the lead................

Castroneves and Carpenter pitting...................

Now most of the front-runners pitting for fuel and tires; Andretti now limps in, still unable to use 5th and 6th gear
