Graham Rahal, son of Indy Racing legend Bobby, has become the youngest winner in IndyCar history with a victory on the streets of St. Petersburg. Rahal is 19 years old.
It was one hell of a win. Check out the stats:
1. Rahal was making his debut in the newly unified IndyCar Series, having competed in Champ Cars for the past couple of seasons
2. He had only completed 10 laps of testing in the IndyCar prior to St. Petersburg
3. He was tapped into a spin during the race, dropping him to 23rd.
Despite all this, the Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing driver fought back to become the youngest (19 years and 93 days) winner of a major open-wheel racing series race.
Rahal's result will undoubtedly make the F1 world take notice...
