Australian Casey Stoner rode away from the pack at the Indianapolis Moto Grand Prix on Sunday for his third consecutive victory and seventh overall this year.
The Aussie pole sitter completed 28 laps over the 2.621-mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course in 46 minutes, 52.786 seconds.
"We have had a really good set-up all weekend," Stoner said.
Stoner, making his seventh start of the year from the pole, finished 4.828 seconds ahead of runner-up and defending champion Dani Pedrosa of Spain to extend his win streak. "Those last two races have been difficult," Stoner said.
