Michael Andretti Ends Penske’s Winning Streak

Michael Andretti outraced trouble Sunday, ending Team Penske’s seven-racing winning streak and earning his fourth Toronto Molson-Indy victory.

Andretti took control after bumping and passing Nigel Mansell for the lead on lap 26 as the defending series champion’s right-rear tire deflated.

Andretti was virtually unchallenged the rest of the 98-lap, 174.44-mile race, beating Bobby Rahal to the finish by 6.8 seconds in earning his 29th Indy-car victory.

Bryan Herta, injured in a crash during practice, was listed in serious but stable condition at St. Michael’s Hospital.
