At the start Power took the lead from pole with Newgarden falling into line with Daly holding off O’Ward’s attempt to get around him on the outside, and Scott McLaughlin and David Malukas took fifth and sixth. Behind them, Rinus VeeKay’s Ed Carpenter Racing-Chevrolet got around Jack Harvey’s Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing-Honda to claim seventh.
Newgarden had a 6.7sec lead on his teammate when he pulled in for fresh rubber on Lap 60, with Power and Herta pitting a lap later. On Lap 99 of the 250, Ericsson took advantage of a hesitation in traffic by Power to pass the polesitter and grab third, 1.3sec behind O’Ward and 7.3 behind Newgarden. The Lap 134 restart saw Newgarden break away initially, with Ericsson having to hold off an inside challenge by Power, but Ericsson came up to try and pass Newgarden. He tried the outside, then the inside and his right-front nuzzled Newgarden’s left-rear, fortunately without any longterm repercussions. However, the time loss for the Swede did allow Power back onto his tail to grab second.
The restart on Lap 175 saw McLaughlin’s car slow and pit with a loose right-rear wheelnut, while behind Newgarden and Power, Palou got around O’Ward into third while VeeKay got ahead of Johnson and Dixon.
