Ron,
Having the pleasure of watching the race live (exit of turn 4/enterance into pit lane), it was amazing how Montoya destroyed the field...until he got into traffic. His car was really bad as it trailed the pack after his penalty. I don't doubt he and others were speeding coming into the pits though. I didn't have a radar gun, but you could really see the guys who waited to the last possible moment to slow down (and got caught) verse the guys who would slow way down before entering the pits (and not get caught speeding). In everyone's defense, the track is tough to get off the race line, slowed down and into the pits w/o getting either killed or fined. But, IMO...Montoya got a penalty that was earned, he had plenty of laps left to make up the penalty, but his car just wasn't good in traffic.
