LONG BEACH, Calif. – Scott Dixon has quietly put together one of the most impressive resumes in IndyCar.
He's tied with Rick Mears for 10th on the career victory list, and another three wins would push him past Dario Franchitti and Sebastien Bourdais as the winningest active driver in the series.
Dixon also has two titles, an Indianapolis 500 win and hasn't finished lower than third in the standings since 2006.
Yet, it's Franchitti with his four titles and three Indy 500 wins who gets most of the attention.
That's just fine with Dixon, who said he prefers to get his attention on the race track.
Dixon heads into Sunday's race at Long Beach ranked second in the IndyCar standings.
