Overview

• Pato O’Ward used an overcut on the final green-flag pit cycle and a 10-lap restart to hold off Josef Newgarden for Chevrolet’s first win of the 2025 season in Race 1.
• Newgarden led a race-high 232 laps in the Sukup 275 at Iowa Speedway but lost track position during the closing pit sequence and settled for second.
• In Race 2, Alex Palou outdueled Scott Dixon at the finish to claim his seventh victory of the year and strengthen his bid for a fourth championship.
• Late cautions and decisive pit-stop tactics once again reshaped both Sukup and Farm to Finish races at the .894-mile oval.
• Palou now holds a 129-point cushion over O’Ward with five races remaining before the series heads to Toronto.
