Scott McLaughlin Wins IndyCar Milwaukee Mile Race

In a chaotic IndyCar race at the Milwaukee Mile, championship leader Alex Palou faced a severe setback when his car stalled on the pace laps due to a 12-volt battery issue, forcing him to start the race from pit lane. Initially holding a 43-point lead over rival Will Power, Palou's misfortune allowed Power to briefly take the lead in the standings during the race. However, despite starting 28 laps down, Palou managed to finish 19th, preserving a 33-point lead with one race remaining. Scott McLaughlin won the race, while Power's own problems, including a spin that led to a 10th-place finish, hindered his championship bid. The race highlighted the ongoing challenges with the newly introduced hybrid engines in IndyCar. As the series heads to the final race in Nashville, Palou is in a strong position to defend his title.
