Scott Dixon stretches fuel to inch closer to A.J. Foyt on IndyCar's all
LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Scott Dixon moved closer to A.J. Foyt on IndyCar’s all-time win list by picking up his 57th career victory Sunday on the downtown streets of Long Beach.
Foyt is IndyCar’s winningest driver with 67 victories.
Dixon’s win is his second in the most prestigious street course race in the United States and gave Chip Ganassi Racing a sweep of the weekend. Ganassi’s sports car team of Renger van der Zande and Sebastian Bourdais won the IMSA race on Saturday.
The victory also makes it two straight for Ganassi in IndyCar as reigning series champion Alex Palou won the exhibition race last month in California.
Dixon used masterful fuel-saving strategy and was being chased over the final 20 laps by Team Penske driver Josef Newgarden, who seemed to have the speed to run Dixon down for the victory. But the race changed when Colton Herta ran into the back of Newgarden as they all slowed through the hairpin with lapped traffic ahead.
