Josef Newgarden won Saturday evenings Bommarito Automotive Group 500.
The event at World Wide Technology Raceway was pushed into night time after a series of crashes and a red flag. With eight laps to go the race was red flagged after Alexander Rossi made contact with Will Power on a restart with 10 laps to go. The crash ruined Rossi’s hope of a top-five and further compounded Power’s slim chances of catching points leader Alex Palou.
How the chaos unfolded with 8 laps remaining.
