WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: • ANOTHER FIRST-TIME WINNER AT TRICKY TRIANGLE?: A different driver has won the four previous races at Pocono with Scott Dixon, , Ryan Hunter-Reay and visiting victory lane since the series returned in 2013. Will one of those drivers conquer the Tricky Triangle again? Or can another new winner be crowned?

• ANDRETTI LOOKS FOR BREAKTHROUGH WIN AT HOMETOWN TRACK: will compete in a virtual hometown race at Pocono. Andretti can lean on family ties for some advice as Pocono is one of two tracks where all three generations of racing’s most famous family have had success. Andretti’s grandfather, racing legend , won the 1986 Pocono race, the same year that Marco’s father, Michael, won the pole. Marco claimed the pole for the Pocono race in 2013.

Scott Dixon—along with Newgarden and Power—has finished in the top 10 in every Pocono start. Need a value pick? Carlos Munoz has finished in the top seven in all three of his starts at Pocono.

• SATO AIMS FOR 500-MILE SWEEP: After winning his first oval race in the 101st Running of the 500 in May, looks to add another 500-mile win to his resume. The Japanese driver used a combination of and strategy to win at Indy. Can he conquer another test of man and machine this week?
