INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — No severe weather is expected this week, but a few heavy downpours are possible.

This morning:

Good morning. We’re starting the day off with mostly cloudy skies. Radar showed a few light showers in western portions of the state early this morning. Heavier rain showers are in the southeastern portions of the state. Rain activity is moving to the north and east.

Monday:

For the rest of the morning hours, expect a few light showers in and around central Indiana. Otherwise, we’re partly cloudy as we roll into the late morning and afternoon hours with warm and humid conditions. Some isolated showers and thunderstorms could develop by mid- to late-afternoon. No severe weather is expected, but a few heavy downpours are possible.

Highs top out into the low and mid 80s.

Monday night:

As we lose the heating of the day to night, showers and thunderstorms should fall apart. We are partly cloudy overnight, with a few areas of fog possible. Lows will fall to the mid-60s.

Tuesday:

Tuesday is a similar setup. We are likely to be dry for much of the morning and early afternoon hours, with partly cloudy and humid conditions. A few spotty storms will be possible, fueled by the maximum heat of the afternoon.

Highs top out into the mid-80s.

Wednesday:

Wednesday will be our best chance for rain in the seven-day forecast. We expect a cold front to march through the state by the afternoon and evening hours, which should bring scattered showers and a few thunderstorms to the area.

7 day forecast:

There is a chance for a few isolated showers on Thursday, but the chance remains relatively low in the wake of Wednesday’s cold front. The rest of the extended area looks pretty quiet with seasonable temperatures. Expect highs in the mid-80s on Friday, which will likely continue into the weekend. Humidity looks to stay on the high end for the next seven days.

Ryan Blaney was frustrated after finishing third Sunday in the Brickyard 400 but didn’t know who to project those emotions toward.

It took double overtime to determine the winner and Blaney felt he was in position to have been that driver. On the first overtime attempt, Blaney chose the outside lane alongside leader Brad Keselowski, who was going to run out of fuel at some point, and Blaney wanted to be ready when it happened.

Keselowski did run out of fuel coming off Turn 4, but it was before the race restarted and he was able to dive to pit road. Kyle Larson, who was running third, moved to the front row for the restart, and even though Blaney was the control car, had the advantageous lane going into Turn 1 and took the lead. Larson maintained the position through the second overtime attempt and won the race.

“I’m ,” Blaney said. “I told my guys I’m ticked off, but I don’t know who to be ticked off at there’s no one to be ticked off at. It’s just racing luck. The break that he got and the hardship that we got right there with that happening at that time killed our race.

“We put ourselves in the perfect spot to win, and just a weird circumstance benefited him and killed our race and any chance to win. That’s what I’m upset about. I’m not mad at anybody. It’s just Lady Luck that I’m off at. It sucks.”

The first overtime attempt resulted in a multi-car crash in Turn 1. Larson had already overtaken Blaney when the caution came out and led to a subsequent red flag. During the delay, Blaney was furious on his No. 12 team radio about what he felt was NASCAR giving Larson the race by moving him onto the front row.

It was an extensive back-and-forth conversation as Blaney continued to express his frustration. The reigning series champion felt NASCAR should have waved off the restart and allowed the field to re-choose what lane they wanted because Blaney, as the control car now that Keselowski pitted, would have chosen the inside lane. Instead, Blaney felt Larson, from third, was given the advantage.

“Obviously, I can easily say if the leader runs out coming to the restart zone, you have so long to wave off the green re-choose because you’re promoting the third-place guy now to where I get screwed,” he said. “I’m the one getting screwed. The third-place guy is benefiting. The guy behind me is benefiting. It’s one of those weird … you don’t see that very often a place like this.

“If it was any other place, it’s not going to be as bad because the second lane you can maintain. Here, it’s a death sentence. You’re not maintaining the lead from the top of the front row, so obviously I’m going to say they should re-rack in that situation just to make it fair. That’s the only way it can be fair. … I think they can do it a little bit different.”

On the second overtime restart, Larson again beat Blaney through Turn 1. The No. 12, with a bit of a wiggle coming off the corner, fell into the clutches of Reddick, who took second place.

“We should have won the race,” Blaney said. “ was going to run out if we went green there, so we’d inherit the lead, and I’m going to pull away from . I chose the top on the restart because I couldn’t believe stayed out; he pitted like six laps before us, and I knew we were tight. There was no way he was making it.

“He stays out, and I chose the top because I was like, ‘He’s going to run out in the restart zone, and I’m going to inherit the lead.,’ and he runs out before pit road, pulls in, and Larson gets promoted to the bottom and the race is over now…

“That just stinks. That’s just dumb luck. We did everything right to win, but he got a break pretty good.”

One of the longest-running “Business-to-business” relationships in professional sports will continue well into the future as PPG has extended its business relationship with the Penske Corporation.

This relationship dates to the early 1980s and its involvement is far reaching into the automotive industry with Penske’s vast number of car dealerships, as well as sponsorship of Team Penske in auto racing and its growing partnership with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The announcement was made Sunday at 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

PPG is a global leader in paints, coatings and specialty materials. It announced a multiyear agreement to extend its presenting sponsorship of the Brickyard 400, a crown jewel of the NASCAR Cup Series schedule held annually at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

PPG also will continue as the Official Paint and Finishing Supplier of IMS as part of the long-term agreement.

The presenting sponsorship, which began in 2024 with the Brickyard’s 30th anniversary and return to the oval, adds to PPG’s historic legacy with the Brickyard 400. The first seven winners of the Brickyard 400 had their names inscribed on the coveted PPG Trophy.

As part of the extended sponsorship announcement, the logo for the 2025 Brickyard 400 presented by PPG also was unveiled. The logo incorporates the colors synonymous with PPG and its motorsports involvement, which signify the company’s focus to protect and beautify the world.

“For more than four decades, PPG has been one of the most trusted, innovative and dedicated partners in motorsports,” said Roger Penske. “We look forward to building on our long-term relationship with PPG and the opportunities that lie ahead as we continue to feature PPG and their commitment to enhancing our communities across IndyCar and NASCAR and at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.”

For more than 40 years, PPG also has maintained a partnership across Team Penske’s NASCAR and IndyCar programs.

“We are excited to build upon our extensive history with Team Penske, IndyCar and IMS,” said PPG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tim Knavish. “To be able to expand and strengthen these relationships speaks to the commitment and success we’ve had together. I look forward to seeing the PPG name on Team Penske cars and at the Brickyard 400 for years to come.”

Team Penske’s most recent NASCAR victory at Indianapolis Motor Speedway came with Cindric at the inaugural race on the road course during Brickyard Weekend 2021 in the No. 22 PPG Ford Mustang.

Under the partnership extension, PPG will continue to serve as an associate partner on the No. 12 Chevrolet driven by two-time IndyCar champion Will Power, and the No. 3 Chevrolet driven by six-time IndyCar Series race winner Scott McLaughlin.

“Our relationship with PPG was really one of the first business-to-business partnerships of its kind in motorsports,” said Team Penske President Tim Cindric. “It began over 40 years ago, and we are really proud of everything we have accomplished together on and off the race track. Their commitment to motorsports has been far-reaching. We are looking forward to continuing to wear their colors in the winner’s circle for years to come.”

The Team Penske and PPG partnership began with the 1984 IndyCar Series season. Over the last 40-plus years, Team Penske and PPG have amassed unparalleled successes together.

Notable accomplishments include, 17 Indianapolis 500 victories, 11 IndyCar titles, four NASCAR Cup Series championships, three Daytona 500 wins, seven NASCAR Xfinity Series titles, four Australian SuperCars Championship triumphs and a Bathurst 1000 victory.

“I am honored and excited to continue representing PPG in the NTT IndyCar Series,” said Newgarden. “They are a legacy partner not only of Team Penske, but of the series as well. A company with terrific products deserves a beautiful paint scheme and the No. 2 PPG Chevrolet certainly has that. Fans love it as much as we do. I have a lot of wins with PPG, and I am looking forward to plenty more in the future.”

Team Penske’s most recent NASCAR victory at IMS came with Cindric in 2021 on the famed facility’s road course behind the wheel of the No. 22 PPG Ford Mustang. Team Penske and PPG have visited victory lane together 13 times across INDYCAR and NASCAR competition as a primary partner.
