2018 Indianapolis 500 race winner Will Power had his dreams of a second victory at the famous race dashed by a crash on lap 146 of the race. Power started the race from second place on the grid, sharing the front row with his Team Penske team-mates. The Australian was running side-by-side through the opening corner with a rival car as he battled for position before getting loose and hitting the wall. Power has become the 11th driver to retire from the race.
