Fifth Gear: Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama

The Month of May started with a bang at Barber Motorsports Park as inclement weather held off and a sold-out Race Day crowd enjoyed a day of incredible racing in the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama presented by AmFirst. Alex Palou vaulted into the championship lead for the first time this season as he put together yet another consistent performance in the No. And yet again, Palou leaves Barber with the points lead, just like he did last season when he won the race, which was the season opener in 2021. With 50 points awarded to the winner, there are 250 points available in the four remaining races, not including bonus points for the NTT P1 Award and laps led. Alex Palou scored his third podium in four races so far this season and fourth top-10 finish of the year. Defending NTT INDYCAR SERIES champion Palou is boasting a 3.5 average finish so far this season. Opening practice is scheduled for Tuesday, May 17, with Race Day on Sunday, May 29.
