Power wins bizarre IndyCar season-opener in Brazil

Autoracing Betting Lines

03/14/2010 - Sao Paulo, Brazil (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Will Power survived a spectacular opening-lap crash and then endured heavy rain before making a winning pass on Ryan Hunter-Reay in the closing minutes to win the season-opening Sao Paulo Indy 300 on the streets of Sao Paulo.

Power and Hunter-Reay battled for the lead before the Aussie took the top position for good with three-and-a-half minutes remaining. The inaugural race in Brazil was scheduled for 75 laps, but Indy Racing League officials placed a time limit on the event due to numerous accidents and a brief delay for a thunderstorm.

The 29-year-old driver made his first start since he was seriously injured in a practice crash last August at Sonoma, Ca. He claimed his second career IndyCar victory. His first win came during the 2009 season in Edmonton, Canada.

Hunter-Reay finished second in his first start for Andretti Autosport, while Vitor Meira was the highest finishing Brazilian with a third-place run in front of his home crowd. Meira's fellow countryman Raphael Matos took the fourth position. Dan Wheldon finished fifth.

Marco Andretti avoided injuries on the first lap when Mario Moraes smashed into the back of him during a five-car pileup. Moraes' car came to a rest on top of Andretti's car after both drivers slid off the course.

Safety officials spent more than five minutes removing Moraes' car before the shaken-up Andretti could exit the vehicle under his own power.
