Race speeds reaching in excess of 225 mph, even higher in qualifying.

And, in case you didn't see the dramatic finish, here it is!





The fastest four-lap average qualifying speed was 234.220 mph with many of the rest only milliseconds behind. That's fast.

A bit from Larry Webster of Hagerty Media in today's 'Never Stop Driving' piece here :

"Announcer Leigh Diffey exclaimed, “This is mind blowing!” After the finish, O’Ward was in tears—surely mourning his loss but also, I imagine, feeling totally gutted by how it happened. He never thought Newgarden would attempt that kamikaze move and succeed. None of us did. The Indy 500 certainly delivered drama and heroics this year. Watch that final pass here."

Meh...didn't sound like much of a race. Almost half the 100 laps run under caution with 12 penalties handed out. Happy for Scott Dixon however.
