Helio Castroneves wins Indy 500 for fourth time

It took 12 years, but Helio Castroneves finally made it back to the top of the podium at the Indianapolis 500.

The 46-year-old took the checkered flag three previous times in his career — 2001, 2002 and 2009 — but he'd been chasing the elusive fourth win ever since. On Sunday, Castroneves etched his name in the record book as he was first to cross the finish line at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway in front of 135,000 fans.

Sunday's result means Castroneves joins legends A.J. Foyt, Al Unser Sr. and Rick Mears as the only four-time winners of the Indy 500. He worked his way up from the third row on the starting grid en route to the victory, holding off Spaniard Alex Palou to ensure his placement as a joint all-time wins leader.

Castroneves' historic victory came before the largest crowd at a sporting event in the world since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
