For the second Heat Race of the day, it was Chip Ganassi Racing driver, Alex Palou, who took the chequered flag first and secured his way into the battle for $1 million.

In second place was fellow Chip Ganassi Racing driver, Marcus Armstrong. Graham Rahal rounded out a Honda 1-2-3 in Heat Two as he finished in third place.
Linus Lundqvist, Pietro Fittipaldi, and the only Chevrolet driver to reach the Sprint Race from Heat Two was Arrow McLaren driver, Alexander Rossi, who rounded out the top six, securing his way into the battle for the money with fourth and fifth place.
Pato O’Ward was eliminated from the race later today after he could only manage a seventh-place finish in his Heat Race. Former Formula One driver, Marcus Ericsson, was also eliminated after a massive crash in qualifying yesterday left him starting at the back.
