As a Newgarden fan he made the pass right in front of me I didn't even think it was gonna stick that was racing is all about though right there 2 clean drivers balls to the walls racing for the win for the 500 Pato has to be the favorite for 2025

Pato could have waited like Newegarden on the backstretch on the last lap but still a incredible 500 again and safe one.

Watching the last 30 laps, there was consistency in the overtakes for the lead, but at the end, Pato was doing the right thing by holding back to make the pass on the last lap. However, I think Josef did something that appeared to throw Pato off and Pato's penultimate take-over did not have the usual surge so that Josef was able to gain it back within the same lap quite easily. Fascinating race.

When Pato washed out to the outside of the track in 3/4 (0:28) I knew he would not have a run coming down the straight. Damn.

Confused why Pato passed when he did. Kind of set himself up to get passed? Of course I have zero idea what the reality was from my armchair:)

That was a good race, though no suspense if the leaders can make it on fuel. That adds a whole new level of anxiety.

What was unbelievable? There have been many last lap passes. It was a great race with all the passing in the last 20 laps and it was great finish, but not unbelievable.

Fantastic finish! Just an amazing job by Josef Newgarden to stay in the fight for the win. He is a gracious winner and could have backed off fearing potential mechanical failure from the vibration he was fighting, but he stayed with it and gave it maximum effort. The winning dollars will benefit the US economy and support American jobs.

No he didn't.

Pato's pass at the start/finish line on the last lap came way too early. How many times have we heard that you don't want to lead going into the last lap except at the checker? Josef got him back going into turn three & O'Ward couldn't do an '06 Sam Hornish vs Marco down the front straight. So sad for Pato, he had the car & speed but he should have known better(?).

That’s cool but it’s not fun racing in circles

Right when they came out of turn 4 my local station went to commercial! Didn't see the finish and didn't know the winner until after the break. I hope someone got fired!

Uh huh.

If O'ward hadn't done the same jerk move off the corner that Newgarden did last year he would have won

Pato keeps getting so freaking close... if he doesn't get it one of these days, it'll have to be the worst case of so close yet so far ever.
