Montreal, Canada (My Sportsbook) - Oriol Servia passed Timo Glock with the help of a Champ Car official's ruling and captured Sunday's Molson Indy Montreal Champ Car race. The No.2 Newman/Haas Racing driver crossed the finish line 0.999 seconds ahead of runner-up Timo Glock.

The victory was the first of Servia's Champ Car career.

Bourdais led the drivers to the green flag at the 2.709-mile Circuit Gilles Villeneuve road course. He and teammate Servia quickly jumped out to a one- second lead over Justin Wilson and the field in a very clean start.

On lap 14 Wilson jumped past Servia for second place with a move in the final chicane and set out after Bourdais.

The five leaders pitted together on lap 20 and came out in the same order. Bourdais began to expand his lead and after 21 laps the lead was 2.294 seconds.

He maintained that margin on Wilson through the mid-point of the race as most of the drivers were in a fuel conservation mode in an effort to make the race a three-pit stop event.

There was a good battle between Servia and A.J. Allmendinger for the third position about eight seconds behind Bourdais. Following the second round of stops, Tracy moved in front of Allmendinger for fourth place with a better pit stop strategy that left him out on track for one extra lap.

Bourdais began to slowly move away from Wilson in the third stint and after 40 of 79 laps the margin was more than four seconds. And he was doing it without using his "Push-to-Pass" button which gives a driver 50 additional horsepower.

Bourdais' lead was 6.273 seconds when the first caution of the day came out for a Ricardo Sperafico crash. Sperafico's crash sent his rear spoiler flying backwards and it hit Allmendinger's left-front tire. It caused the American to duck onto pit lane for a blown tire and dropped him to 13th place.

On the lap 60 pit stop after the incident, Bourdais struggled with his pit stop and came out fourth behind Glock, Wilson and Servia. But he still had most of his "Push-to-Pass" time available and 19 laps to recover from the slow stop.

Bourdais moved to third past Wilson on lap 65 just before a debris caution brought out a second yellow flag.

The race restarted with 12 scheduled laps to go.

Glock got off to a great start and held off both Newman/Haas teammates. Servia charged up alongside Glock, but couldn't complete the pass as Glock cut through the final corner. Meanwhile, Wilson ran down Bourdais for third place with eight laps to go.

Glock continued to hold them off and with five laps to go held a 0.457-second margin. But Servia made another passing attempt and again got alongside of Servia. For the second time, the German took a shortcut through the corner and officials declared that he would have to give up the position to Servia.

He let the Spaniard by with half a lap remaining and Servia held him off the rest of the way.

"I knew I had the best car on Friday," said Servia. "Today we made it happen."

"It's disappointing...I had to give up (the lead) because I did two times the shortcut," said Glock. "The car was unbelievable in the last two stints."

Wilson, Bourdais and Alex Tagliani completed the top-five.

The next race is set for the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Saturday night, September 24th.
