New Indianapolis 500 champion Takuma Sato joined NBCSN’s NASCAR AMERICA on Tuesday as part of his New York media tour, to reflect on his triumph on Sunday.
Sato edged Helio Castroneves for the victory while driving the No. 26 Ruoff Home Mortgage Honda for Andretti Autosport.
The first Japanese driver to win the race, Sato is also the sixth different winner in six races to start the Verizon IndyCar Series season, and has leapfrogged to second as part of a three-way tie in the championship.
