Tony Stewart picked up his second win of the season yesterday during a rain-shortened Auto Club 400. Stewart passed Kyle Busch on Lap 86 of the scheduled 400-mile race. He held the lead when the rain arrived on lap 123, forcing the first and only caution.
NASCAR officials stopped the race after 129 laps were completed and called it 30 minutes later. Busch finished second, followed by Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kevin Harvick, who won this race one year ago, and Carl Edwards.
Helio Castroneves took the checkered flag at the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg yesterday. Castroneves led a total of 28 laps en route to his 26th career IndyCar win. Scott Dixon, Ryan Hunter-Reay, James Hinchcliffe and Ryan Briscoe completed the top five.
