- INDYCAR takes over Washington, D.C., this weekend for the Freedom 250 — a landmark-lined street race created to celebrate America’s 250th birthday on a 1.7-mile circuit across the National Mall.
- Winners get a one-of-a-kind trophy that fuses a proportionally scaled crystal Washington Monument pyramid with a detailed Capitol dome (produced in three podium sizes and lit from within).
- The race is expected to be a real test — heat, driver strength and multiple pit stops will matter — with the main event Sunday afternoon (green flag around 1:13 p.m. ET).
