The Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach was the second points race of the 2024 IndyCar series. One month after the $1 Million IndyCar Race returned to California on the streets of Long Beach where Scott Dixon walked away with the win.
The podium was rounded out by Colton Herta in second place and Alex Palou in third place. The top five was completed by Josef Newgarden and Marcus Ericsson.
With Will Power, Kyle Kirkwood, Romain Grosjean, Felix Rosenqvist and Alexander Rossi making up the remaining drivers in the top ten.
The early laps of the race were dominated by Will Power as he grabbed an early lead over the rest of the drivers and had a five second gap on the field after ten laps.
The first caution of the race was thrown on lap 15 as Christian Rasmussen went into the wall. This accident also caused damage to Jack Harvey.
Power lost the lead on the restart as Championship leader Josef Newgarden led the race.
After Newgarden’s stop, it was Scott Dixon who got the lead from Power. However, the race began to settle down and save fuel and tires.
After Dixon and Power made their final pit stop at Newgarden, Herta and Palou took the race lead around the streets of Long Beach.
Newgarden, Herta and Palou entered the field one last time to give Dixon the lead. Behind Dixon was Newgarden just 2.5 seconds back.
