Summer in Washington, D.C., kicked off with a UFC fight held right on the White House lawn. This weekend, it wraps up with another major event: the Freedom 250 Grand Prix. This highly anticipated IndyCar race is set to take over the streets surrounding the National Mall.
The event, which takes place on Saturday and Sunday, was initiated by President Donald Trump through an executive order issued in January. The president has heavily promoted the race, bringing significant attention to downtown Washington.
