Palou, who started fourth, led the last 95 laps of the 225-lap race to beat the No. 2 Astemo Team Penske Chevrolet of reigning Nashville winner and recent series oval master Josef Newgarden by .8731 of a second. Palou used a mix of speed and good fortune to climb to the lead shortly past the halfway point of the race. Palou cycled to the lead on Lap 131 when those drivers made their stops and never trailed thereafter. The next NTT INDYCAR SERIES race is the OnlyBulls Grand Prix of Portland on Sunday, Aug. 9 at Portland International Raceway.
