IndyCar Manufacturer standings tied up

With its teams posting a podium sweep at Mid-Ohio, Honda tied Chevrolet in the manufacturer standings (105 points) with five races left. Both manufacturers have seven victories, while Chevrolet has won nine of the 14 pole positions in 2013.

"We are still pushing; and we still want more, and I think we have seen it," Dario Franchitti of Target Chip Ganassi Racing said. "When we make a step, Chevy makes a step and that's what this competition is. I think that's one of the reasons that Honda and Chevy are around in the sport."

Chevrolet won the GoPro Grand Prix of Sonoma in 2012 with Ryan Briscoe of Team Penske and took six of the top-10 finishing spots.
