IndyCar at Laguna Seca live results, updates today, time, schedule, starting lineup
Championship leader Alex Palou looks to extend his dominance of the 2025 IndyCar Series season in a 95-lap race at WeatherTech Raceway at Laguna Seca. He starts from the pole position as Pato O'Ward, his closest pursuer in the points, starts 2nd in the Java House Grand Prix of Monterey on the 11-turn, 2.238-mile layout. Palou has won seven races in 2025, Kyle Kirkwood three, O'Ward two and Scott Dixon one. Palou is 99 points clear of second-place O'Ward with four races to go. Race winners earn 50 points.

We will have leaderboard updates, crashes and highlights throughout, so remember to refresh. Here's the starting lineup for today's @IndyCar race at @WeatherTechRcwy ⬇️Among other things, the entire Andretti trio will start on primaries. Both Pato & Palou start on alternates. 'I think it's great': IndyCar's 2 championship contenders to start from front at Laguna Seca 'It's just so random and bizarre': Josef Newgarden tries to make sense of painful IndyCar season McLaren CEO: Zak Brown says IndyCar must remain 'commercially viable' Row 1 1, Alex Palou 2, Pato O'Ward Row 2 3, Colton Herta 4, Josef Newgarden Row 3 5, Will Power 6, David Malukas Row 4 7, Will Power 8, Christian Lundgaard Row 5 9, Graham Rahal 10, Louis Foster Row 6 11, Marcus Armstrong 12, Christian Rasmussen Row 7 13, Scott McLaughlin 14, Kyffin Simpson Row 8 15, Marcus Ericsson 16, Nolan Siegel Row 9 17, Rinus Veekay 18, Kyle Kirkwood Row 10 19, Scott Dixon 20, Santino Ferrucci Row 11 21, Jacob Abel 22, Alexander Rossi Row 12 23, Conor Daly 24, Callum Ilott Row 13 25, Robert Shwartzman 26, Sting Ray Robb Row 14 27, Devlin DeFrancesco Alex Palou swept the pole and race in 2024. Is it going to be one of those weekends? As much as I'd love for the championship fight to get tighter, Palou has exceled here. He didn't run away and hide a year ago, but he was clearly the best car from the jump. This year, Palou has won four of the five natural-terrain road-course races — and in the one he didn't (Mid-Ohio), his small silly mistake cost him the win. We haven't gotten a true Alex Palou beatdown of a weekend since the spring, and it feels like we're due. How will Team Penske fare this weekend? I certainly don't expect a win. I think there's an off-chance we get a podium from either Scott McLaughlin or Will Power. I still think we could get a Penske win before the season ends, but not here. Chip Ganassi Racing has won each of the last three trips to the track, and if I'm making predictions, there's no reason to expect that to change unless something odd happens. The Rookie of the Year race couldn't be tighter. Who has the edge between Louis Foster and Robert Shwartzman? Foster has had a better track record both in qualifying performance and consistency, so in a tie with four races to go, I'll give a slight edge to the Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing rookie, although I think this very much could be alive until the finale — at an oval, where Prema has gotten the bulk of their strong results this year.

Championship leader Alex Palou wins pole position for the IndyCar Series race at WeatherTech Raceway at Laguna Seca, his fifth pole of the season. Pato O'Ward — second in the points but not all that close to Palou — also starts on the front row for the Java House Grand Prix of Monterey, a 95-lap race on an 11-turn, 2.238-mile layout. Palou won from pole position in 2024, with Colton Herta and Alexander Rossi completing the podium. Palou has won seven races in 2025, Kyle Kirkwood three, O'Ward two and Scott Dixon one.

Jennifer Lawrence Is Championing The Return Of 90s Cord Necklaces
Jennifer Lawrence poses at the opening night of the new show 'Josh Sharp's Ta-Da!' at The Greenwich House Theater on July 21, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by) If there is one thing Jennifer Lawrence knows how to do, it's incorporating trends du jour into her looks with a sense of ease. Her casual street style manages to include these details without ever feeling overly curated. Just last week the star was seen walking through New York City with husband Cooke Maroney, showcasing the asymmetrical silk-scarf belt look. She paired the contemporary trend with a simple base of a red tee and white trousers. This week, Lawrence was once again spotted in the city in another chic and effortless ensemble which highlights a few current trends. The actress opted for a wool-crepe dress from the Row. She styled the easy piece with thong sandals and a cord necklace; both items which are experiencing a renaissance post their 90s and early oughts hay day. Lawrence further accessorised with a large leather tote and square shades, all keeping with a black colourway contrasting against the cool brown dress. The resurgence of cord necklaces coincides with the return of boho – think Isabel Marant – aesthetics, especially for the summer. Existing in every colour, texture, and price point, these versatile pieces quickly add a touch of eclectic personality to a look. Whether an element in a carefully conceived bohemian look, or thrown on over a simple base, these pieces just make sense in a time where we are increasingly drawn to personalisation. Particularly to showcasing personality through easy-to-read aesthetics, whether it be through graphic tees, bag charms, or a rustic style of necklace.

How Alex the Great's owners are honoring legacy of ‘Rally Rabbit'
Most rabbits never set foot in a ballpark. For Alex the Great, a therapy bunny who was rescued from a meat farm, he called Oracle Park home. 'He'd come up to the stadium, and you could see it in just his body language. He would get excited because he knows he's going to the game,' one of his owners, Josh Row, said in a phone interview with the Chronicle. 'The more people he got to see, the more wild the crowd got, the more he got excited, because he felt the energy and he knew where he was at.' Alex died Monday due to complications from cancer treatment, Row and Kei Kato said. He was 4. The rare Flemish giant will perhaps be most remembered by his sporting arena legacy, but according to his owners, Alex's talents were most felt in comforting those who needed him. Rally Rabbit, as he was colloquially called, immediately emerged as a local celebrity at Oracle Park, making Jumbotron appearances and greeting fans as they entered the ballpark. After going viral during his ballpark debut on April 21, 2021, the San Francisco Giants announced that Alex had a lifetime welcome at Oracle Park. Alex became an international sensation almost overnight, quickly finding himself on television broadcasts and in newspapers in countries such as the U.K., Japan, China and Peru. For a rabbit growing up during the pandemic, socialization — for animals in addition to humans — wasn't easily attainable. Row says Alex the Great came into the world 'at just the right time.' With slowly easing restrictions and mandated capacity limits, the conditions at Oracle Park in mid-2021 were just right: Alex could ease into unfamiliar sounds and faces, a far cry from the lively crowds that pack the 42,000-seat ballpark in normal years. Those who met Alex were astounded by his love for people, as he would encourage pets and snuggles in their laps. Row said that Giants president Larry Baer came by their section on several occasions to say hello to Alex. The team even designed shirts for Alex in 2021, and like true fans, many players wore them during practice. 'He was always a part of the team,' Row said. Kato continued, 'When he was on the screen, people chant his name, or if he wasn't, people shout, 'Show us the bunny,' or 'Rally Rabbit!' … People always say, you know, he brings so much joy, and they always look forward to seeing him.' After falling for the Rally Rabbit, Oracle Park employees each chipped in on a championship ring replica — perhaps unsurprising, but marking the first therapy bunny to receive a championship ring. The ring features a bunny design and has 'Alex the Great' printed on the head. When he needed a break, Alex had his own stool at the Gotham Club — a private club level exclusive to ticket holders — to relax for a moment and stretch his furry legs. During games, children brought their Alex the Rabbit stuffed animals, thrilled for a chance to meet the Rally Rabbit and, if they were lucky, get a signature pet and photo. After one game, Josh recalled a woman who chased the trio down outside of Oracle Park. 'This lady literally just broke down into tears, because, you know, she had just lost her mother and was dealing with a lot of medical issues. And just seeing him, burst her into tears,' Row said. 'But then it's like, just everything, everything he does. He just touched everybody.' This wasn't the first time Alex provided comfort to someone battling the throes of humanhood. At Bay FC's inaugural game, Alex and his owners were in a suite with celebrities including Kristi Yamaguchi. 'One lady, I cannot tell you her name, but her husband is very famous, and Alex just kept running up to him in between his legs and laying down. And he keeps coming to him. And then she said, 'Please don't tell anyone, but my husband just got diagnosed with cancer, and it seems like Alex knows that,'' Kato said. '(If) he smells something wrong, he will make sure you're comforted. That's his superpower.' Alex's owners live near Family House, a nonprofit organization in San Francisco dedicated to providing temporary housing for children undergoing serious treatment at the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital. Alex became a source of comfort for the children. Kato recalled a young girl who was walking through Spark Social in Mission Bay, describing a light igniting within her when she saw Alex. The girl had just undergone a round of chemotherapy treatment at the children's hospital. Due to contamination concerns, therapy animals are not allowed in the wing where she was receiving care. 'She got to pet him, and then, we didn't know she was staying at the Family House. So every time she's back in town and staying at Family House, we come and visit her,' Kato said. 'She will let us know, 'Hey, can you come over and meet us?' Because she had a long day at the hospital.' This was the Rally Rabbit's superpower. Row and Kato have made it their mission to continue his legacy. The two are in the process of signing a lease for a storefront in Ghirardelli Square where they will open Bunny Cafe SF. The cafe will rescue bunnies from kill shelters, offering customers some bunny comfort alongside their food and drinks. Bunny companions will also be available for adoption, the proceeds of which will be donated to foundations dedicated to rabbit rescue and care. 'I don't know if we can ever have another bunny the way that we love Alex,' Kato said, voice cracking. 'But at least we can help other bunnies out there.'
