INDIANAPOLIS. x–16s. Josef Newgarden has become the first back-to-back winner of the Indianapolis 500 since Helio Castroneves (EH’-lay-oh cass-troh-NEV’-ez) did it 22 years ago. The win also gives Roger Penske (PEN’-skee) a record-extending 20th win in “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.” Newgarden says he didn’t want to leave the Brickyard second-guessing himself.

TAG: Just like last year, Newgarden stopped his Chevrolet-powered car on the track and climbed through a hole in the fence to celebrate with fans in the grandstands.
