Alexander Rossi cuts into Scott Dixon's points lead with Mid-Ohio win

LEXINGTON, Ohio -- Alexander Rossi won Sunday at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course for his second IndyCar victory of the season and fourth overall, starting from the pole and using a two-stop strategy to run away from the field.

The 2016 Indianapolis 500 winner finished 12.8 seconds ahead of rookie Robert Wickens in the caution-free race on the 13-turn, 2.258-mile permanent road course. The race covered 90 laps and 202.3 miles.

Will Power was third, 14.7 seconds back. Josef Newgarden was fourth and points leader Scott Dixon fifth.
