It’s been a challenging first full year for Nolan Siegel with Arrow McLaren - and Milwaukee did little to help. After qualifying a pedestrian 18th, Siegel was searching for speed on the low lane during the opening lap when he lost control of his No 6 Chevrolet and backed into the outside wall.

Attendance at the Milwaukee Mile for Sunday's Snap-on 250 benefitted from a great forecast. It's an argument for an extension beyond the schedule return in 2026.
