-

LONG POND, Pa. — Will Power continued his late-season surge, holding pole-sitter Mikhail Aleshin at bay after a final restart and winning the IndyCar race at Pocono Raceway on Monday.

It was the fourth victory in the past six races for Power, 29th of his career and cut the lead of Team Penske teammate Simon

Pagenaud to 20 points in the standings with three races remaining in the season.

After crashing late, Pagenaud finished 18th in the 500-mile race, which was postponed a day by rain.

Defending race winner Ryan Hunter-Reay finished third, Josef Newgarden was fourth, and Sebastien Bourdais fifth.
