Description

The IndyCar Grand Prix is an IndyCar Series race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Speedway, Indiana. The race takes place in early May on the combined road course at the Speedway. The inaugural running occurred in 2014.
The race is run on a newer, modified layout of the circuit previously used for the Formula One United States Grand Prix, and later the Moto GP motorcycle event. The Grand Prix serves as a lead-in to the Indianapolis 500.

INDIANAPOLIS – Will Power has yet to win an Indianapolis 500 in 10 tries, but he cemented his place as the master of the road course preliminary to the Verizon IndyCar Series’ greatest race by winning the INDYCAR Grand Prix for the third time on Saturday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The victory was as much a study in statistical nuggets as the first victory of the 2018 season for Power. The victory was the 200th in Indy car history for Team Penske, which made its debut in the sport 50 years ago.
Thirty of those wins have been provided by Power, who won for the third time in the INDYCAR Grand Prix. For the fourth consecutive year, the race was won from the pole.
