The 2019 Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio was an IndyCar Series event held at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio. The race served as the 13th round of the 2019 IndyCar Series season.[1] This marked the 35th time that Indy car racing had raced at Mid-Ohio.[2] The event was supported by races from the three Road to Indy ladder series as well as Stadium Super Trucks and the Global MX-5 Cup.[3] Will Power secured his fourth pole at Mid-Ohio, a record for the track. It was also his 57th overall pole in the IndyCar Series.[4] Scott Dixon beat fellow Chip Ganassi Racing teammate Felix Rosenqvist by a margin of .0934, the closest margin of victory at Mid-Ohio. Points leader Josef Newgarden had a last lap spin which dropped him ten positions from a potential fourth place finish [5]
