INDIANAPOLIS — Helio Castroneves joined a club of Indy 500 legends Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, becoming the fourth four-time winner in the 110-year history of results and points from its 500-Mile Race.
Castroneves climbed the fence after passing Alex Palou to lead the final two laps and tie the record for most Indy 500 victories that is shared by A.J. Foyt, Rick Mears and Al Unser.
At 46 years, 20 days, Castroneves (who also won in 2001, ’02 and ’09) became the fourth-oldest winner in Indy 500 history behind Al Unser (47 in 1987), Bobby Unser (47 in ’81) and Emerson Fittipaldi (46 in ’93). The 12-year gap between Castroneves’ victories is the second longest in Indy 500 history behind Juan Pablo Montoya (who won in 2000 and ’15).

The 105th Indy 500 was the first NTT IndyCar Series victory for Castroneves, whose last was July 9, 2017 at Iowa Speedway in his final full-time season with Team Penske. The Brazilan raced in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship the past three years while also running the Indy 500 with Penske.
Sunday marked Castroneves’ 21st start in the Indy 500 but his first outside Penske after joining Meyer Shank Racing for a part-time IndyCar season in 2021. His 31st victory in IndyCar also was the first for Meyer Shank, which joined IndyCar full time last year and is known primarily for competing in sports cars.
In becoming the first driver to win the Indy 500 with another team after winning for Penske, Castroneves won the fastest Indy 500 in history. The 200-lap race had an average speed of 190.690 mph with only two caution flags for 18 laps, breaking the record of 187.433 in 2013.
The race also set a record for fewest yellows and caution laps (previously four in 1990 and 2019 and 21 laps in 1976, 2013 and ’14).
