IndyCar alters Milwaukee schedule again; to begin new race before Race 1 ends


WEST ALLIS, WI – IndyCar continues to make adjustments to its doubleheader schedule at the Milwaukee Mile. With rain continuing at the track, the first race of the weekend – the Snap-On Makers and Fixers 250 – will not resume at 8 a.m. Sunday as planned after its Saturday evening postponement.

The second race – the Snap-On Milwaukee Mile 250 – will begin at 1 p.m., before the Snap-On Makers and Fixers 250 resumes. Then, IndyCar plans to resume the first race at approximately 6 p.m., about three hours after the checkered flag for the second race.

Pato O’Ward – who won at the Milwaukee Mile in 2024 – leads the first race through 90 laps, with Felix Rosenqvist and Alexander Rossi behind him. Alex Palou will start on the pole with O’Ward joining him on the front row for the second race.

This is now the second race of the IndyCar season that won’t be completed on the day it was supposed to. The Music City Grand Prix was delayed from July 19 to July 20 after heavy rain in Lebanon, Tennessee. Before the Music City Grand Prix, IndyCar hadn’t delayed any portion of a race a day since 2018 at Barber Motorsports Park.

IndyCar still intends to do all 250 laps and miles for both races. National Weather Service anticipates that showers and thunderstorms will continue until 3 p.m. (2 p.m. CT) in West Allis, Wisconsin.
