Overview
- Felix Rosenqvist won the 110th Indianapolis 500 on Sunday by 0.0233 seconds over David Malukas after running the outside of teammate Marcus Armstrong for most of the final lap.
- A split fuel strategy, multiple late cautions and Caio Collet’s crash produced a red flag and a one-lap restart that turned the race into a sprint to the finish.
- Alex Palou was assessed a five-point penalty and his team fined $10,000 for a postrace front-wing assembly failure that officials called unintentional, and he still leads the championship by 37 points.
- Fox’s broadcast averaged 6.635 million viewers for the race, a roughly 6% drop from 2025 but the second-highest Indy 500 audience since 2012 as the network continues heavier promotion.
- The series moves to the Detroit Grand Prix on Sunday, May 31 with FOX coverage, DraftKings listing Kyle Kirkwood the favorite, Josef Newgarden expected to race despite a walking boot, and Mick Schumacher named Rookie of the Year.
