Christian Lundgaard started the race strong, leading in the early stages. Alex Palou was hot on his tail, making for an intense battle at the front. Palou’s strategic pit stop on lap 42 proved to be the game-changer, propelling him into the lead. He then dominated the race, leaving no chance for others to catch up. Will Power also made a move during pit stops, securing second place ahead of Lundgaard. However, Power continues to chase a win, as his winless streak extends.

Despite some incidents in the midfield, only one caution was needed during the race. Overall, Palou’s masterful performance and strategic pit stop secured his victory in a largely straightforward event.
