Race Review
Dario Franchitti overtook pole sitter Will Power with an outside move in Turn 1 on Lap 5 and went on to recorded the season-opening victory. Power, who started from the pole and won the 2010 race, finished second. Tony Kanaan held off second-year driver Simona de Silvestro for third, and Takuma Sato finished fifth. It was Franchitti's 27th Indy car victory, tying Johnny Rutherford for 10th on the all-time list. Box score
The winner at St. Petersburg has gone on to win the series championship once in the seven years of the event (Dan Wheldon, 2005).
