Can Anyone Challenge Alex Palou For The IndyCar Title?

Why the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio Just Became the Most Important Race of the Season.

This shakes up the entire field and opens up one of the best seats in the field to a number of drivers. Who's going to be driving the number 9 Chip Ganassi Racing PNC Bank car next year? Ganassi has a lot of options and we're happy to speculate about that, and talk about the importance of the rest of the season in determining who will be in the series next year and who will be out, starting with this weekend in at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.Always known for producing exciting racing, the weekend just got amped up a bit more. See why we're excited to see the cars hit the track for the 4th of July weekend.
