TORONTO – Scott Dixon has swept the doubleheader weekend at Toronto with an easy victory Sunday on the street circuit at Exhibition Place.
It's Dixon's third consecutive win — in seven days — and it vaulted him from seventh in the standings to second.
His 32nd career victory also gave Dixon sole possession of seventh on the all-time wins list. His victory Saturday moved him into a tie with teammate Dario Franchitti, Sebastien Bourdais and Paul Tracy.
Dixon was challenged briefly twice on a pair of late restarts, but he smoothly pulled away. The race ended under caution because of an incident between Will Power and Ryan Hunter-Reay on the final restart.
IndyCar points leader Helio Castroneves was second and Sebastien Bourdais third to claim his second podium of the weekend.
