Newgarden Claims Indy 500 Crown

0

Josef Newgarden won a chaotic Indy 500 with a last-lap overtake on former F1 driver Marcus Ericsson.

Newgarden is a two-time IndyCar champion but had never won the Indy 500 before Sunday. The race at Indianapolis was red-flagged three times due to several accidents.

The Penske driver slipstreamed and overtook Ericsson down the back straight to make the move into Turn Three, before holding off the former Formula 1 driver through the final turn.

Santino Ferrucci was third, from Alex Palou and Alexander Rossi, with less than one second splitting the top five.
