In his record-breaking 319th consecutive start, Scott Dixon made sure he made it 19-straight seasons with an IndyCar victory by winning despite being involved in a crash on the first lap of the Indianapolis road course race in which he’d qualified 15th.

Devlin DeFrancesco delivered a spectacular start as he went around the outside of everyone at Turn 1 from fifth on the grid to the lead, which gave him only his second lap led in IndyCar. He had a previous best finish of 12th and had entered the race 22nd in the championship.
