Will Power's wife told IndyStar the past few months have been "a fun experience," and Will even flipped the framing on his unknown future after a win at Portland.

Power surged to the lead in the middle stages of the race and kept a charging Christian Lundgaard and Alex Palou at bay over the event’s second half to claim the BITNILE.com Grand Prix of Portland. It was the Australian’s first win of the year and the only victory for Team Penske in what’s been a tumultuous 2025 campaign.

Bellingham, Wash. friends Ken Adelstein and Matt Benoit have attended each race since IndyCar added Portland to the schedule in 2018. As they sat in the shade of their SUV behind grandstand K, they talked about how they “follow it all year long,” Adelstein said, of IndyCar.
