Helio Castroneves Wins @ Barber

Helio Castroneves won the Alabama IndyCar Grand Prix at Barber Motorsports Park on Sunday. Castroneves grabbed the lead with 8 laps to go when race leader Marco Andretti had to pit for fuel after dominating the race. Castroneves would have to hold Scott Dixon after a late race caution to take the win and give Team Penske three wins in the first three races. Scott Dixon was second followed by Dario Franchitti, Will Power and Marco Andretti in fifth. This was a very limited passing track and it was tough to do so Sunday and few cautions only when Takuma Sato who qualified sixth had trouble on lap 12 and Simona Di Silvestro spun with 5 laps to go and brought out the late race caution that setup a dash to the win in 3 laps. The series is off to the Toyota Grand Prix Of Long Beach next weekend and that is one of the big races you wanna win, it's a challenge for drivers but a race that is old and prestigious. Here is the results from Barber.
