AUSTIN, Texas -- Rookie Colton Herta became the youngest winner in IndyCar history Sunday, when he captured the inaugural IndyCar Classic after a late-race crash near the entry to pit row helped him steal past the leaders to the checkered flag.
Team Penske's Will Power, who started from pole position and dominated through 45 laps, was caught out by the crash still needing a tire change when pit row was closed. Power's race was doomed when he finally got to pit but his car's driveshaft failed and he couldn't get out.
