Power goes 2-for-2, wins IRL's Honda Grand Prix

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) Will Power's right hand was wrapped in a bandage after the race, something that probably should be striking fear across the Indy Racing League.

When Power gets hurt, he seems to come back stronger.

Barely seven months after breaking his back in a scary crash, Power continued crafting a stirring comeback tale on Monday by winning the rain-delayed Honda Grand Prix for his second victory in as many IndyCar events this year. Power went to the front after a restart on the 78th of 100 laps, then stayed there the rest of the way and held off Justin Wilson by nearly a full second.
