Round 15 - Sonoma, CA 
'Haiku For Indycar' - Ben Haddleton

So My Race review,
Done in the form of Haiku,
Now lets get started.

The Race
Exciting Racing,
Sonoma Raceway the place,
often much duller.

Power
Not won since Brazil,
Held off Wilson at the end,
Very popular win.

Wilson
Diverse strategy,
Putting Wilson in the mix,
Doing Yorkshire Proud.

Franchitti
Keeping his nose clean,
Not the pace of those around,
Fell back from Pole.

Castroneves
Kept neat and tidy,
While others losing their heads,
The New Champion?

Hinchcliffe
Grinding on the kerbs,
Tony Hawk would be so proud,
But what of next year?

Rahal
Eventful racing,
Missing out on a top ten,
Still has some to learn.

Kanaan
Pit strategy calls
did not help his racing cause,
Tony, one to forget.

Dixon
Should have won the race.
Stupid Penske right-rear guy,
look before you walk.

Briscoe
It is criminal
how he cannot have a seat
for a whole season

Davison
Shame about the shunt,
taking out his old house mate.
Poor Sebastian.

Kimball
Ohio winner,
Really has Diabetes?
I did not know that.

Luhr
First race very tough,
A lot more to come from him.
Full time drive in 14?

Sato
Quiet all weekend.
Met up with Charlie Kimball,
going the wrong way.

Summary
Championship hard
for the chasing pack to catch
flying Helio
