Sunday Road to Indy race recap
Rinus VeeKay |
Rinus VeeKay dominated Sunday's second race of the Indy Lights presented by Cooper Tires weekend at Road America. VeeKay (Juncos Racing) led from the pole position and was never threatened during the all-green, 20-lap race.
Ryan Norman, who won Saturday's race, finished second ahead of Andretti Autosport teammate Oliver Askew. Askew leads VeeKay by three points halfway through the 18-race season.
Kyle Kirkwood (RP Motorsport USA) extended his winning streak at Road America to four – from just four starts – with Sunday's Indy Pro 2000 Championship victory. It gave Kirkwood a weekend sweep of the Indy Pro 2000 races and, coupled with his sweep last year in the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship weekend, made the Floridian a perfect 4-for-4 in races at Road America.
Rasmus Lindh (Juncos Racing) finished second and holds a 30-point lead in the standings over Parker Thompson (Abel Motorsports), who placed third.
Points leader Braden Eves (Cape Motorsports) returned to the top step of the USF2000 podium after a dominating drive in Sunday's second race of the Road America weekend. Eves took the lead from pole sitter Hunter McElrea (Pabst Racing) on the second lap and pulled away to win by 4.4508 seconds.
Eves leads McElrea by 41 points after seven of 15 USF2000 races.
