Colton Herta and Christian Lundgaard had few complaints about IndyCar's decision to delay full-course cautions after two incidents at Laguna Seca on Sunday.

Since 2020, the series has held back-to-back races at Iowa, giving fans double the excitement. The only time a driver has swept the weekend set was in 2023, when Josef Newgarden won the double, winning in Corn Country for the fifth and sixth time in his career.

Alex Palou won his eighth race of the season at Laguna Seca, but the stat about another CGR driver, Scott Dixon, was making the rounds on the web.

The 2025 IndyCar schedule includes 17 races, starting on the streets of St. Petersburg, Fla., in March, and finishing at Nashville Superspeedway on Aug. 31. Races are run on downtown streets, road courses and oval speedways.

Richmond would fill in a much-needed hole in the schedule, which currently doesn’t have a race in the mid-Atlantic or the Northeast. A return to Pocono, where INDYCAR has seen its share of injuries and loss, is unlikely. Watkins Glen (another NASCAR-owned track) doesn’t seem to be in the conversation.

Arrow McLaren has taken ownership of a new facility in Indianapolis and has begun renovations to expand and modernize the building.

After a year that has brought five DNFs, all in the last eight races, Josef Newgarden is trying to come to terms with a lost IndyCar season.

With his championship lead trimmed to 99 points, Chip Ganassi Racing’s Alex Palou continues to hold a tight grip on the title with four races left to run, but his main challenger, Arrow McLaren’s Pato O’Ward, is on a hot streak of late, winning two of the last three contests.
