File-This Aug. 17, 2019, file photo shows Scott Dixon during a news conference for Sunday's IndyCar Series auto race at Pocono Raceway, in Long Pond, Pa. Josef Newgarden has been the IndyCar points leader for all but one race this season and built enough of a cushion that his mindset has changed as the championship race speeds into an anticlimactic final two events of the year. Newgarden leads Team Penske teammate and Indianapolis 500 winner Simon Pagenaud by 38 points, while Alexander Rossi is 46 points behind. Five-time and reigning series champion Dixon is still mathematically in the hunt, but a mechanical issue last week at Gateway dropped him to 70 points behind Newgarden. (AP Photo/Matt Slocum, File)
