Will Power earns first career win at Iowa Speedway

Will Power edged Alex Palou by 0.3915 seconds in the Hy-Vee One Step 250 on Sunday to claim his first win at Iowa Speedway.

With the victory, Power trimmed Palou's title lead to 35 points with six races remaining.

"I've been trying to win this race for years, so I'm over the moon," Power said after the race. "We're right back in the game.

"I actually thought coming into the season, ‘I want to win an oval and win multiple races.'"

Power's Team Penske teammate Scott McLaughlin, who won Saturday's Hy-Vee Homefront 250, finished third.

Power, who started 22nd, led 51 laps of the 250-lap race en route to his first win on an oval since Pocono in 2019. In Saturday's race, he started fourth but finished 18th.

He moved into second on the first round of pit stops, then grabbed the lead on lap 206 after his second pit stop -- nearly nine-tenths of a second faster than Palou's pit stop.

The race was marred by a massive crash on the last lap involving Sting Ray Robb, Kyle Kirkwood, Alexander Rossi and Ed Carpenter.

Robb's car went airborne and landed on its aeroscreen. Safety workers were able to extricate Robb who was placed on a stretcher and gave a thumbs-up the crowd as he was transported into an ambulance.

"Sting Ray is doing well. He's awake, alert and in good condition. We're going to send him to the hospital for precautionary measures to get some advanced imaging," Dr. Julia Vaizer, medical director for IndyCar, told NBC Sports.

Carpenter, Rossi and Kirkwood were able to walk away from the crash.
