O'Ward leads IndyCar Race 1 in Milwaukee at red flag

Pato O'Ward led when persistent rain stopped the race after 90 laps, and IndyCar said the final 160 laps will run Sunday.

  • Persistent rain forced IndyCar to red-flag the Snap-on Makers and Fixers 250 at the Milwaukee Mile on Saturday after 90 laps, with the remaining 160 laps scheduled to resume Sunday.
  • A caution on lap 65 due to light sprinkles preceded the red flag on lap 90; officials conceded at about 7 p.m. Saturday that the track could not be restarted. This varies the opening from Bullet 1 with a data-first approach.
  • Pole-Sitter Pato O'Ward led when the red flag came, followed by Indianapolis 500 winner Felix Rosenqvist in second and Alexander Rossi in third. Drivers were instructed to leave their cars and wait at transporters.
  • The race is scheduled to resume at 9 a.m. Sunday on FS1 to complete the final 160 laps, with the second scheduled race following at 1 p.m. on Fox.
  • This suspension marks the second time this season IndyCar has delayed a race a day due to weather, following a similar postponement of the Music City Grand Prix in Tennessee.
