INDIANAPOLIS — Swedish driver Felix Rosenqvist won the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday by a margin of 0.0233 seconds, the closest finish in the race's history. The victory came after a seven-lap shootout to the checkered flag.

Rosenqvist overtook Malukas in the final stages of the race to take the lead and secure the win at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The tight finish surpassed previous closest margins recorded in the event's running.

The seven-lap shootout that decided the outcome set up the final battle between Rosenqvist and Malukas, with the two drivers separated by less than a tenth of a second at the line. The 0.0233-second gap established a new mark for the narrowest victory in the history of the Indianapolis 500.

Rosenqvist became the latest Swedish driver to take the checkered flag at the Brickyard, adding his name to the list of winners of one of motorsport's longest-running races. The result followed a closing sequence in which positions changed repeatedly before Rosenqvist completed the pass on Malukas to move into the lead for the final time.

The finish concluded a race that built to its conclusion over the seven-lap dash to the flag, with Rosenqvist holding off Malukas across the final circuits of the 2.5-mile oval. The margin of 0.0233 seconds was recorded as the official gap between the two cars at the finish line.
