    Kiwi glory at IndyCar's third race of the season at Long Beach, California, on Sky Sport...


    Scott Dixon's won the 85-lap race courtesy of a fuel saving strategy - driving conservatively to require less time refuelling in the pits.

    The New Zealander's held off several challenges, including a late charge from series leader Josef Newgarden.



    It's the 20th consecutive year Dixon's won a race on the IndyCar circuit.

    Marcus Armstrong finished 12th, while Scott McLaughlin withdrew after 70 laps.

    Shane van Gisbergen outside the top-10 late in the NASCAR race at Talledaga.
