Fact IndyCar Freedom 250: Race Finally Extended to Its Actual Advertised Distance

Decision IndyCar has officially extended the Freedom 250 Grand Prix to its full 250-mile race distance, ending an unspecified period during which a race named, quite literally, after the number 250 was not, in practice, 250 miles long. The Stewards commend organisers for eventually noticing that a number appearing directly in an event's title is generally expected to be accurate, and note that the change brings the Freedom 250 into line with a policy most other events adopted from the beginning: naming a race after a real number and then actually running that number. The 250 is now, for the first time in series history, simply true.
