WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) — Ryan Hunter-Reay figured the luck had to go his way eventually.
Turns out Sunday was the day.
Hunter-Reay got the opening he needed to earn his first IndyCar Series victory when Scott Dixon made an uncharacteristic mistake, ending his bid for a fourth straight victory on the road course at Watkins Glen International.
Preparing to make a run at leader Darren Manning after a long caution period, Dixon spun out under yellow and was hit from behind by contender Ryan Briscoe. That gave the runner-up spot to Hunter-Reay, who easily passed Manning on the ensuing restart and drove away with the fourth series win for Rahal Letterman Racing and first since 2004.
Dixon's mistake helps Hunter-Reay to victory....
