Rossi drove a solid race but he's not going to be happy dropping four places from his starting position. I don't see how he can stay with Andretti if he can sign with another top team. For now he can blame "something" about his current situation for his woes, but I suspect that the days of him being seen as a championship contender have passed him by. We'll get a better sense of that if he can sign with Ganassi or Penske. Maybe replace Johnson next year at Ganassi. I hope he can change teams, that way there are no excuses.

Newgarden's awful race sees him dropping two places in the championship. Defending champion Palou is putting together another steady, Dixon-esque season. Will Power actually has the most consistent performance so far, finishing 4th or better in every race.
The top four guys are within 10 points. Also note that every race has been won in a Chevy-powered car, but the championship leader is driving a Honda!
Championship After 4 Races
(+/- number of positions gained or lost)
P01 Alex Palou (Ganassi / Honda) 144 pts (+2)

I'm still not sure how he lost 4 spots on the last round of pit stops.
I was a Rossi fan when he came into IndyCar and it looked at first like he was going to be a star. However, I agree that he's not trending in a good direction right now. Maybe a change of scenery will do him good.
