As Alex Palou dominates the oval for 99 laps, Lap 100 saw Agustin Canapino slip but the track is still green and Palou went to the pits. The yellow flag was triggered. As the race restarts on Lap 114, Palou is still leading while Will Power and Scott McLaughlin are hunting him down for the lead. 45 laps left, three podium fighters had done their pitstop routines and then back for more for the endgame. As the trio fights for the final lap, The Big One strikes as Sting Ray Robb goes upside down followed by Alexander Rossi, Ed Carpenter, and Kyle Kirkwood getting crashed.

After a thrilling Iowa climax, Will Power wins the Hy-Vee One Step 250. Alex Palou finished 2nd and yesterday's winner Scott McLaughlin finished 3rd.

With Iowa behind them, Palou leads with 379 points, Will Power is in 2nd with 344 points, and Pato O'Ward is in 3rd with 327 points.

The next race is the Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto this July 21st, 2024.
