With father and race strategist Bryan Herta in his ear, Colton Herta crossed the finish line first in the No. Immediately in Victory Circle, Colton knew the significance of winning in just his second race with his dad as his race strategist. Bryan said he was at his most comfortable on the radio with Colton, and he could tell Colton had the same sensation. But the moment Colton completed Lap 100 and scored his first win on a street circuit, Bryan transitioned from race strategist to dad, taking in the special win. Colton, 21, tied a statistic his father achieved at age 35. Colton’s win extended his winning streak to three straight seasons, something his father never did.
