Chip Ganassi Racing’s Alex Palou moved one step closer to a fourth consecutive - and fifth overall - IndyCar Series title after throttling to victory in Monday’s Borchetta Bourbon Music City Grand Prix at Nashville Superspeedway.
The Spaniard’s conquest came after holding off Team Penske’s trio, led by oval maestro and local boy Josef Newgarden, who won at the 1.33-mile concrete oval in 2025. The key moment proved to be the caution at Lap 123 of 225, the lap after Palou pitted before several frontrunners, cycling to the lead on Lap 131 and never relinquishing it for the remainder of the race.
