0:26Now PlayingPresident Trump kicked off IndyCar’s Freedom 250 Grand Prix near the US Capitol on Sunday by taking the first lap around the 1.7-mile circuit — before drivers blew way past the speed limit on the National Mall, thrilling hundreds of thousands of fans.
During Trump’s lap in “the Beast,” Air Force One flew over the course, capping off a series of flyovers, which included a B-2 bomber, to herald the big race. Afterward, the president and first lady Melania Trump then waived the green flag to kick off the race.
