President Donald Trump hosts IndyCar drivers at the White House to promote the Freedom 250 Grand Prix in Washington, D.C. All reports say the meeting takes place on July 13, when Trump welcomes top IndyCar figures ahead of the race. The event is scheduled for Aug. 22 and Aug. 23 and is described as a street race on the National Mall. Yahoo Sports and Forbes both say three IndyCar drivers attend the White House event, with Forbes describing them as prominent IndyCar names. One report also identifies driver Álex Palou among those scheduled to participate in the visit. ABC News US similarly says Trump hosts top-ranking IndyCar drivers ahead of the race in the nation’s capital next month. The White House event functions as a pre-race promotion for the upcoming Freedom 250, which organizers present as an IndyCar event taking place over two days in Washington, D.C. The sources agree on the core details: the July 13 meeting, the White House location, the participating IndyCar officials and drivers, and the Aug. 22–23 dates and National Mall setting for the Freedom 250.
