Newgarden charged to the front in the early stages of the 250-lap race on the 7/8-mile oval, passing his team-mates Will Power and Scott McLaughlin in one fell swoop on lap 32 as they got balked in traffic.
Newgarden again led the majority of the race, as McLaughlin and Power proved strong at different points of the event. In the final stint, Arrow McLaren’s Felix Rosenqvist emerged from the pack as a challenger to Newgarden – until he got delayed by lapped cars inside the final 45 laps.
