Will Power: Profanity after winning Indianapolis 500 not aimed towards drivers

INDIANAPOLIS -- Will Power has earned respect in the IndyCar garage for his racing ability, so when in the euphoria of his Indianapolis 500 victory, he keyed up his radio and yelled about respect, it wasn't directed at his competition.

The Indianapolis 500 win was the one thing missing from the Power racing resume, and his victory Sunday at Indianapolis in his 11th try compelled the driver with 33 open-wheel wins and 51 open-wheel poles to scream in excitement.

"Yes! Yes! Show me respect, m-----f-----," Power shouted into his radio after winning the race.

Power now has a viral video to go along with his Borg-Warner Trophy as far as memories from Sunday.
