Aug 30 (Field Level Media) - ​An unrelenting rain system led to a red flag ‌on lap 90 of the Snap-On Makers ⁠and Fixers 250 ​in Milwaukee Saturday, ⁠and the cars couldn't ‌return to ‌the track.

Instead, the race is now ⁠scheduled to ⁠resume at 9 a.m. ET Sunday with the final 160 laps or end at 10:25 a.m. ET, whichever comes first. ‌The delay will ​now create a double-header -- the Snap-On Milwaukee Mile 250 will follow directly after the first race.

Pato O'Ward of Arrow McLaren holds the lead at the break. ​Felix Rosenqvist is in second, ‌while Alexander ‌Rossi ⁠is in third.

This is the second time a race has been postponed a day this ‌season. The Music ​City Grand Prix ‌outside of Nashville ⁠suffered ​the same fate in July.
