2023 HyVee One Step 250 at Iowa – Full Race Results

Josef Newgarden has completed the weekend sweep at Iowa Speedway, a place where he has dominated over the years. Newgarden led 212 of the 250 laps today to earn his sixth win at the track, and became the first driver since 2017 (Graham Rahal) to sweep both races in an IndyCar weekend. The victory also closed the championship gap to 80 points with five races to go. Newgarden joined AJ Foyt and Al Unser as the only drivers in history to ever win five consecutive oval races.

"We knew we had a great car, and then the pressure was there," Newgarden said. "We wanted to execute on it and make sure it was a great weekend. I’m happy now. When you finish the first race, it’s great to have a doubleheader but you just feel incomplete until you get through today. And you know, to be able to come back and do it again and make our car a little bit better, I’m so proud of the team."

It was another dominating weekend for Team Penske overall, as all three of their cars had the field covered. Will Power, who qualified on pole position in both races, scored another runner-up finish today. The two-time series champion has seven poles and seven top-fives at Iowa, but remains winless on the short oval. Championship leader Alex Palou had another solid weekend (8th and 3rd) to keep a comfortable margin between himself and Newgarden.

Felix Rosenqvist and Scott McLaughlin had a chance to make a run at Newgarden on the final restart with three laps to go, but both struggled on used tires but managed to hold on to a top-five spot. For the second straight day, Scott Dixon finished 6th and remains winless this season. Colton Herta scored his first top-ten finish at Iowa to lead the way for Andretti Autosport. David Malukas, Marcus Ericsson, and Pato O'Ward completed the top-ten.

Alexander Rossi did not have a great weekend, finishing 10th yesterday and 15th today. After crashing in the race yesterday, Graham Rahal managed to finish today but back in the 20th position. It was another brutal day for Ed Carpenter Racing, as their three drivers finished 18th, 23rd, and 24th. Takuma Sato and rookie Agustin Canapino each brushed the wall in today's race and finished at the back. Sting Ray Robb saw his day end early when he lost a wheel during a pit stop, which several drivers managed to avoid as it rolled onto the track.
