IndyCar - Detroit: Nice restart by Helio. There are eight laps to go.
IndyCar - Detroit: Castroneves has pulled away, and Dixon was sizing Power up for second. He made a move, got onto the dirty side of the track, and got just out of shape enough for team-mate Kimball to skip past into third.
IndyCar - Detroit: Shame for Castroneves, who really looked strong on that restart. Hinchcliffe was also good on that first lap under green, and made up two places.

We just saw a replay of Sato's exit - he got a bit of help from Andretti.

By the way, during the previous caution period Hunter-Reay retired with an electrical problem, ending a miserable weekend for the Indy 500 winner.
IndyCar - Detroit: There will be three laps to go at the restart. Order: Castroneves, Power, Kimball, Hinchcliffe, Dixon.
IndyCar - Detroit: Castroneves nails the restart. Power was caught napping again there.
IndyCar - Detroit: Drive-through for Andretti for hitting Sato.
IndyCar - Detroit: Big lunge from Hinchcliffe on Kimball for third. It doesn't work, they briefly touch, and the Canadian topples back two places.
IndyCar - Detroit: Helio wins! He was a class apart today. Power hangs on for second ahead of Kimball, Dixon and Hinchcliffe. That's a Penske clean-sweep for the weekend.
That rounds off AUTOSPORT Race Centre Live for today.

Our full Dover NASCAR and Detroit IndyCar race reports will be online in the news section shortly, with plenty more reaction to come both on the website and in print during the week.
