INDIANAPOLIS — Bobby Wilson passed for the lead in turn one on the opening lap of race two of the Liberty Challenge on the road course at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and then cruised to a 10.5-second victory over series point-leader Alex Lloyd.
Wilson started on the outside of the first row in the No. 1 Ocala Gran Prix entry as a result of a seventh-place finish in race one on Saturday. Wilson made a move on polesitter Ryan Justice in the first corner and drove all 18 laps unchallenged on the 13-turn, 2.605-mile circuit.
The victory was Wilson’s second in the Indy Pro Series and the first while driving for Brian Stewart Racing.
Lloyd, who maintains a 104-point advantage in the point standings, finished second for the second-consecutive race after coming into the race weekend with a record five-race winning streak. Lloyd started seventh in the race, moved up several positions on the start and passed Justice for second on lap 14.
Hideki Mutoh, who earned his first Indy Pro Series victory in race one, improved from the eighth-starting position to finish on the podium. He passed Justice on the final straightaway, beating him to the line by 0.003 of a second.
Justice earned a career-best finish in fourth, while Andretti Green Racing’s Jaime Camara was fifth.
The finish:
Bobby Wilson, Alex Lloyd, Hideki Mutoh, Ryan Justice, Jaime Camara, Logan Gomez, Jonathan Klein, Mike Potekhen, Richard Antinucci, Daniel Herrington, Stephen Simpson, Sean Guthrie, Joey Scarallo, Chris Festa, Phil Giebler, Ken Losch, Jon Brownson, Tom Wieringa, Robbie Pecorari, Andrew Prendeville, Wade Cunningham, Brad Jaeger, Doug Boyer, Micky Gilbert, Marc Williams.
