Over Memorial Day weekend, fans united at Texas Live! to watch the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge, featuring live race coverage, music, drink specials, and a lively atmosphere.
The energy, enthusiasm, and support helped create an unforgettable afternoon as attendees gathered to cheer on drivers, win prizes, and celebrate one of motorsports’ most iconic events.
The 2026 Indianapolis 500 concluded with No. 60 Meyer Shank Racing Honda driver, Felix Rosenqvist, taking the checkered flag after 200 laps on the 2.5-mile oval.
Although the Swedish driver opted for a Morgan Wallen & SiriusXM-wrapped car for the 500, Rosenqvist can be seen throughout the season sporting the Texas A&M University logo on his helmet, representing his partnership with the university’s marketing program. The Aggie maroon livery made its debut at the inaugural Java House Grand Prix of Arlington, with a maroon single-seater and a helmet made especially for the race weekend by Troy Lee Designs.
Additional race highlights included:
- David Malukas finished in 2nd place at the Indianapolis 500, losing to Felix Rosenqvist by just 0.0233 seconds in the closest finish in the race's history.
- Rosenqvist earned a record-breaking $4.34 million from the historic $30.9 million total purse.
- The race featured an event-record 70 lead changes.
“The Greatest Spectacle in Sports" was felt by fans who attended the Indy 500 watch party at Texas Live!"
This event also served as a lead-in to the continued momentum surrounding motorsports in Arlington and the 2027 Java House Grand Prix of Arlington on March 19-21.
