5 minutes or so remaining.....and Helio has thrown it out the window; he locked it up in turn one; unless something happens to Dixon, it appears the Kiwi will win in Edmonton!

2 laps are left....Dixon looks set to take his 5th win of the season and will have a virtual stranglehold on the series championship going into the upcoming off-week and the next event in Kentucky

WHITE FLAG! One lap remaining for Scott Dixon and he has run a flawless, near-perfect race today.......

Thoughts on the race......................

---No point in continuing to beat upon a dead horse, but......Scott Dixon ran a flawless race and will likely win his second IndyCar Series Championship
---Wasn't it interesting to see the continuing problems at Andrett-Green Racing........forget daytime TV, just follow them around for a year!
---Judging by the fans at City Centre Airport, IMO, Edmonton should have a long life on the IndyCar schedule
---Continuing the AGR "lovefest", wouldn't you have loved to have heard that post-race debriefing?
