Three different winners in the first three road or street course races of the 2018 IndyCar season is not super surprising given the fact that there has been so much parity throughout the series this season, the first season with the new universal aerokit.
It is also not surprising to see so much movement in both the formulated IndyCar Driver Road and Street Course Power Rankings and the non-formulated IndyCar Driver Road and Street Course Power Rankings because of this parity and because of the fact that there have been just three road or street course races so far this season, which is a relatively small sample size with eight road and street course races still on the schedule for the rest of the 2018 season.
