Alex Palou: 10
Palou is on fire righ🌜t now, winning three of the last four races, and holding a 74-point lead in the championship.
Josef Newgarden: 9
Road America is a place where Newgarden has been dominant🦩, and he nearly earned another win today.
Pato O'Ward: 9
Considering the contact at the start✤ of the race and being penalized for blocking, a podium finish was a brilliant result for the young driver.
Scott Dixon: 9
Dixon did it𓆏 again, with a phenomenal drive going from 23rd to earn a 4t♍h place finish.
Colton Herta: 7
After dominating most of the race, a 5th place finish feels like a real gut punch for Herta, who is on a 21-race winless stre♌ak.
Marcus Ericsson: 7
Just an okay dayꦇ for Ericsson, who was bumped off track multiple times today.
Christian Lundgaard: 7
A much-ne♚eded result for RLL Racing, who has really been struggling this season.
Scott McLaughlin: 7
After gaining ground e😼arly in the race, McLaughlin hit a plataue to finish 8th.
Kyle Kirkwood: 8
He spun on the opening lap, was penalized, but♚ rebounded once✤ again for a top-ten finish.
Alexander Rossi: 6
Rossi led all three practice s♔essions this weekend, but didn't execute in qualifying and was getting the short end of the stick in wheel-to๊-wheel battles in the race.

Graham Rahal: 7
It was a quiet ⛄day for Rahal, but his best race day since the season-opener at St Petersburg.
Rinus VeeKay: 5
Yet another underwhelming performance for VeeKay, who nearly caused a serious incident on pit laꦯne and spun Felix Rosenqvist on track, but was surprisingly not giv☂en a penalty.
Will Power: 7
Considering how his first two days went this weekend, today's race was relatively mild for the T✅eam Penske driver.
Simon Pagenaud: 6
A 14tꦐh place finish is a positive thing for Meyer Shank Racing, which speaks volumes about how their season haﷺs gone.
Helio Castroneves: 6
See above.
Santino Ferrucci: 5
A great qualifying efꦑfort was flushed down the drain when he was shoved off course midway through the race.
Ryan Hunter-Reay: 5
✱The veteran's debut in the No. 20 car went about as expected, as the Ed C🌄arpenter Racing team continues to struggle as a whole.
Callum Ilott: 5
Many expected Ilott to perform much better this weekend, given ✅his prowess on this type of circuit.
Agustin Canapino: 5
Not a bad day for the rookie, although he did have himself a big moment midway through the race in the final turn🍬.
Felix Rosenqvist: 4
One of the worst days of the season for Felix, who was getting blocked, shoved off course, and just co💛uldn't ever get back to the front of the field.
Benjamin Pedersen: 4
His outs🉐tanding qualifying drive was ruined when he was the victim of a pack of cars trying to go through Turn 6, where cars on the outside simply don't stand a chance.
Sting Ray Robb: 3
No surprises here. About what we have come to expect꧅ from the rookie driver.
Devlin DeFrancesco: 5
He was running near the ꧒top-ten for most of the race, but fell behind on the final pit s🔜top sequence.
Marcus Armstrong: 7
Although it was his worst result of the season, the rookie led laps and was contending in the first half of the race, mixing it up with Herta and Newgarden. A late off relegated him to such a poor finish, but his performance behind the wheel was anotherꦿ masterpiece.
Romain Grosjean: 1
Grosjean spent more time in the g🎀rass than he did on the pavement today.

Jack Harvey: 2
Another poor performance for Harvey, which should surpris⭕e no one.
David Malukas: 5
His strong Saturday took a hit when his car l🤡ost power midway through today's race.
