"Massively special," Power said of the win.
"We've worked so hard to try to get wins. I worked really hard
in the offseason."
Power's victory was his first since winning the Detroit GP in
June 2022, a span of 34 races.
"First win in a long time," said Power, an Australian native.
"Really happy with the win. This one is for the boys on my car.
They do such a good job on strategy and the pit stops week-in
and week-out.
"As a team, we dominated team. I'm excited for the rest of the
season."
Power also took over the IndyCar championship points by five
points over Alex Palou, who finished fourth on Sunday. Kyle
Kirkwood was fifth.
Power has 42 IndyCar wins, tied with Michael Andretti for fourth
all-time.
Newgarden tried to make a move at the start of Lap 46 but was
unable to get past his teammate.
"It was a really good team day," Newgarden said. "Will did a
great job, too. Look, he deserved to win that race, as well. We
put together a great day."
