2021 NTT IndyCar Series - Honda Indy 200

INDYCAR's own Independence Day celebration is at Mid-Ohio for the Honda Indy 200 race of the 2021 season and the drivers are going all-out to cause some sparks to fly in INDYCAR's own grills and fireworks.

The action in Mid-Ohio begins Josef Newgarden leading the pack until an incident occurred with three cars got caught in a mess. As the race resumes, Newgarden continues to lead. In Lap 21, Will Power and Scott Dixon got caught in an incident and still could be worse, Colton Herta's time in the pits gone worrisome. With 50 laps passed, Josef Newgarden is still leading at Mid-Ohio and as the climax draws near, it's an all-out clash of the best.
