Alex Palou made history by becoming the first Spanish driver to win the 2025 Indianapolis 500, driving for Chip Ganassi Racing. Starting from sixth position, Palou led the final 14 laps of the race, averaging 168.883 mph to secure victory. This win extends his remarkable 2025 IndyCar series dominance, having won 5 out of the first 6 races.

The race, witnessed by nearly 300,000 spectators, saw Palou finish ahead of American David Malukas from A.J. Foyt Racing. Defending champion Josef Newgarden's attempt at a historic third consecutive win was cut short due to technical issues on lap 135. This victory marks Chip Ganassi Racing's sixth Indy 500 team win.

BorgWarner, whose EFR™ turbochargers have powered all NTT INDYCAR SERIES vehicles since 2012, presented Palou with the prestigious Borg-Warner Trophy®, which will feature his likeness alongside 111 previous winners.
