After an exciting race at the XPEL Grand Prix at Road America, the 2024 IndyCar season sees a new lead in the championship. Team Penske’s Will Power took an excellent victory, his first in two years, to move to the top of the standings with 236 points. Power’s consistency in the first eight races of the season finally paid off and put him at the top of the table.

Alex Palou, who was leading the championship before this race, dropped to second place. The Spaniard from Chip Ganassi Racing is just five points behind Power with 231 points. Palou remains a constant threat and is determined to regain the lead in the coming races.

Colton Herta, also of Andretti Global, is seventh with 176 points. Herta has shown stable performance and is close to entering the top 5 of the championship.

Team Penske’s Josef Newgarden is eighth with 169 points, followed by Arrow McLaren’s Alexander Rossi with 162 points and Meyer Shank Racing’s Felix Rosenqvist, who rounds out the top ten with 157 points.

Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing’s Christian Lundgaard is eleventh in the standings with 141 points. A.J. Foyt Racing’s Santino Ferrucci is twelfth with 132 points, followed closely by Andretti Global’s Marcus Ericsson with 130 points and Chip Ganassi Racing’s Marcus Armstrong with 121 points.

Brazilian Pietro Fittipaldi, of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, is in 20th place with 81 points, showing his potential in tough competition.

The 2024 IndyCar season is far from set. With several races still to come, the battle for the title promises to be intense.
