CNN —Josef Newgarden used a scintillating last-lap pass to win the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday for the second consecutive year in a race that started four hours late due to extreme weather.

The Indy 500 regularly shares a date with the famous Monaco Grand Prix, known as the “crown jewel” of the Formula One calendar.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The playoff beard had been shaved off well before fresh-faced Ryan Blaney arrived in Nashville to celebrate his first NASCAR championship. That's a bit fitting, though, as Blaney this year also contributed to two new marks on Penske's impressive motorsports resume. Then you've got to gel with a team.”The breakthrough came in 2017 at Pocono when Blaney beat Kevin Harvick for his first Cup win for Penske. “He won the race at Pocono, it's ironic, racing Harvick and Harvick is retiring now and Blaney is now champion,” Penske said. He spoke with JR Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing, but already had an in of sorts at Penske, where Brad Keselowski that year won Team Penske its first Cup championship.

MONTEREY, Calif. (AP) — By the time Scott Dixon turned his season around, it was too late to beat teammate Alex Palou for the IndyCar championship. Palou became the first driver in nearly 20 years to clinch the IndyCar title before the season finale with his victory last weekend in Portland. Palou won his second title in three years with last week's win, his fifth of the season. “It's a credit to the team, they've been executing like that all season,” Dixon said. We won.”Ganassi became the first team owner to win the championship and top rookie honors in the same season.

CNN —Josef Newgarden won the 107th running of the Indianapolis 500 in a wild finish Sunday after three crashes in the last 16 laps. When the checkered flag finally waved after nearly three hours, it was Newgarden who claimed his first Indy 500 win – but getting there required a lot of drama. The green flag waved again with one lap to go, and Ericsson initially extended his lead over the chasing Newgarden. But Newgarden caught Ericsson and slingshot past him on the back straightaway to reclaim the lead. “I’ve always wanted to go into the crowd here in Indianapolis,” Newgarden said in a postrace interview on NBC’s telecast.

He continued: “But I think a lot of people view this race and this championship with that lens. After the race, Newgarden brought his Chevrolet-powered car to a stop on the front stretch, jumped out and found a hole in the fence, diving into part of the crowd, estimated at more than 300,000, to celebrate. Then, Newgarden climbed the fence to mimic Helio Castroneves, the longtime Team Penske driver and four-time Indy 500 winner. Newgarden, a 32-year-old from Nashville, is the first American to win the Indy 500 since Alexander Rossi in 2016. He led five of the 200 laps and beat Ericsson in the fourth-closest finish in 107 years with a margin of victory of 0.0974 seconds.

Fostul pilot de Formula 1, Romain Grosjean, a reușit primul său pole-position în IndyCar, la o lună după revenirea în circuitul automobilistic.Grosjean a fost primul în calificările etapei de la Indianapolis. El a reușit un timp cu peste o zecime de secundă mai bun ca al dublului campion IndyCar, Josef Newgarden.Acum, Grosjean urmează să participe în cursa propriu-zisă, exact la 7 luni de la teribilul accident suferit de pilot.Pe 29 noiembrie 2020, accidentul teribil suferit de francez a făcut înconjurul planetei, scăpând incredibil dintr-un monopost de Formula 1 rupt în două.Incidentul a avut loc, după startul cursei din Bahrain, monopostul pilotului lovind parapetul de protecție de pe traseu, având o viteză de aproximativ 225 de km pe oră. El a scăpat cu bine, datorită sistemulului de protecție Halo de pe bolid.După accident, Grosjean, care avea în palmares nouă sezoane în Formula 1, a decis că nu va mai concura decât în competiții cu risc mai mic, de dragul familiei sale.La începutul acestei luni, însă, a primit o veste frumoasă. Pilotul francez va testa un monopost Mercedes înaintea Marelui Premiu al Franței. Acesta lucru a devenit posibil după ce directorul constructorului german i-a promis că îi va oferi ocazia de a conduce din nou un monopost după acel accident.Marele Premiu al Franței la Formula 1 este programat pe 20 iunie, iar testele puțin mai devreme.
