F1 dud, Kyle Larson heartbreak bookend big race day; Indy delivers | NASCAR Speed Freaks
Do you have a favorite highlight from auto racing's big weekend?
KEN'S CALL: Sunday was book-ended by duds — even by F1 standards, Monaco was very dull, and then the rainy nightcap — but Indy delivered its usual prerace magic, plenty of fast drama throughout, and another great final lap by Josef Newgarden. Indy won the day, quite easily.
RYAN'S RAMBLE: Do a couple of good Game 3s in the NBA Playoffs count? The last 30-lap sprint to the end at Indy was awesome. Otherwise, there wasn't much. Even golf was a runaway.

Should Kyle Larson try the double again next year?
KEN'S CALL: If missing Charlotte ends up hurting him with playoff bonus points, the decision becomes tougher. Otherwise, he absolutely should honor the second year of his two-year Indy deal. He was on his way to a possible top-5 until inexperience cost him a pit-road speeding penalty.
RYAN'S RAMBLE: I think with the competitor Larson is, he's not going to be satisfied with what happened Sunday. I think he'll do it again.
