Scott Dixon steals show to win 3rd Toronto Indy; Wickens 3rd, Hinchcliffe 4th
TORONTO — It was shaping up to be defending champion Josef Newgarden’s day.
The two-time winner at the Honda Toronto Indy had a third title in his sights Sunday, but on Turn 11 of lap 33, the American hit the wall, allowing Scott Dixon to overtake him for the lead and complete the feat instead.
“When I saw it — the seas were parting — away we went, which for us, especially for the championship, he’s our closest competitor right now,” said Dixon.
“That’s where our race was won today, was through the bad luck or bad situation that Josef had,” he added
