There have been many great moments at Portland, including back-to-back victories by Mario Andretti in 1985-86, three consecutive wins by Michael Andretti from 1990-92, two straight wins from Al Unser, Jr. in 1994-95 and two straight victories from Gil de Ferran in 1999-2000.
But if Mario had written a script to how the Portland race would finish on Father’s Day, nobody would have believed the outcome.
Michael Andretti: “To this day, mention that race to Michael and he will roll his eyes, still thinking about a certain victory that got away.”
Mario: “But Michael really wanted to win.”
