At last, it's first place for HunterMcElrea in IndyLights, as he crushes the opposition at Mid_Ohio
From pole, McElrea staved off the challenge of Linus Lundqvist of HMD Motorsports with Dale Coyne Racing at Turn 4, while Matthew Brabham moved his Andretti entry pass the Global Racing HMD car of Benjamin Pedersen on Lap 1 and then took Lundqvist on Lap 2.
Over the opening nine laps, McElrea edged away from Brabham, building a lead of 3.5 seconds, but Brabham dropped Lundqvist even more rapidly, with 5.5sec between them. Having been deterred by Lundqvist, Pedersen had to turn his attention to his mirrors, which were full of the two Andretti cars of Sting Ray Robb and Road America winner Christian Rasmussen, and the Abel Motorsports machine of Jacob Abel.
Then on Lap 23, out came the full-course yellow when James Roe dropped his TJ Speed Motorsports into the sandtrap at Turn 1.
