Saturday produced a new 2026 winner during the INDYCAR season at the Sonsio Grand Prix on the 2.439-mile, 14-turn road course at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The Winner Is… Christian Lundgaard, who had just one prior INDYCAR victory, doubled that total by taking the checkered flag. “I really didn’t expect this today, but I hoped for it,” Lundgaard said in his postrace interview. “This was a long wait for this win.” Reigning INDYCAR champion and current series leader Alex Palou, who had won three of the first five races this season, finished in fifth place after starting on the pole. How The Race Was Won Lundgaard had his sights on overtaking leader David Malukas, picking precisely the right moment to execute a pass with 18 laps remaining. It turned out to be a lead the No. 7 Arrow McLaren driver wouldn’t relinquish. One Big Moment It took less than one turn for the fireworks to be on display as a multi-car crash on Lap 1 quickly shook up the field. Top-10 Results 1. Christian Lundgaard2. David Malukas3.
