SONOMA (AP) — Team Penske rolled into the title-deciding IndyCar race last season quite confident about its chances to win a championship. The organization had three drivers in contention that day and had led the series standings the entire year.But nothing went as planned at Sonoma Raceway, where Team Penske choked away the title to Scott Dixon and Chip Ganassi Racing.“It was just such a pity, that we allowed Ganassi to get that title,” Will Power said Friday.Juan Pablo Montoya had led the standings since the season opening race, but contact Power during the event put Montoya deep in the field and he couldn’t recover against Dixon. Dixon won the race, which is worth double points, and tied Montoya in the final standings.
