Today’s victory moves Newgarden into second place in the championship standings, still 98 points behind leader Alex Palou of rival Chip Ganassi Racing. It was a 1-2 finish for the Penske organization, with Scott McLaughlin finishing right where he started. Pato O’Ward earned his third consecutive podium at Iowa, finishing just ahead of Marcus Ericsson.
