MADISON, Ill. -- Will Power took a splash of fuel late in Saturday night's IndyCar race, allowing him to go wide open to the checkered flag and not only give team owner Roger Penske another win at Gateway Motorsports Park but keep his championship hopes alive.
Power had regained the race lead with eight laps to go, and his job the rest of the way was to hold off Alexander Rossi, who had conserved fuel for about 70 laps to give himself a chance.
The Andretti Autosport driver wound up second, just ahead of series leader Scott Dixon, to trim into his points lead with two races left at Portland and Sonoma.
