In this week's edition of The Inside Line, IndyStar motorsports insider Nathan Brown and co-host Joey Barnes dive into all the on and off-track drama in the wake of IndyCar's race at Mid-Ohio.

They start the episode taking a look at the moves and decisions that led to the exciting end-of-the-race battle between Scott Dixon and Alex Palou, and the two discuss whether Dixon has a shot at challenging A.J. Foyt's all-time IndyCar wins record. Then, they break down the oddity that has been this season for Team Penske and the streaks and themes that have made it one of the program's worst ever in its 50-plus years in the sport.

The pair also dive into the chatter around Josef Newgarden, why his post-qualifying media interaction became the story it did and do their best to clarify sentiments and assumptions around their own (as well as paddock-wide) reporting and story-writing involving Josef and Team Penske at-large over the last couple years.

They end this week's episode looking ahead to this weekend's Iowa Speedway doubleheader and why many in the paddock believe it will be more of the same of the lackluster passing opportunities of a year ago.
