Indianapolis 500 Winner = Scott Dixon
He did not know he had won. That is how dialed in Scott Dixon was Sunday as he worked his way to victory in the Indianapolis 500. He did not see the checkered flag drop and so he crossed the start-finish line and roared into Turn 1 flat, thinking he still had more laps to go. "I didn't know it was the last lap," he said Thursday afternoon. "The team hadn't said anything. I heard, 'Bring it home.' But I felt that was just because we had some clear track. ... Then they came on the radio and said, 'You just won the Indianapolis 500.' That's when you're like, 'Oh, my God.' You just can't believe it. ... It was crazy."
