Sunday 5th June 1994
The Rex Mays 200 Mile Race was flagged after 192 laps because of rain, with three Penske Racing Penske/Ilmor PC23s in front: 1st Al (Jr.) Unser, 2nd Emerson Fittipaldi and 3rd Paul Tracy! Fourth comes Michael Andretti (Ganassi, Reynard/Ford 94I), fifth Nigel Mansell (Newman-Haas, Lola/Ford T94/00) and sixth Robby Gordon (Walker, Lola/Ford T94/00). The 26 starters completed an incredible 4,782 of 4,992 possible laps (or close to 96 %!), when only one driver (Stefan Johansson) retired, and that in the closing stages of the race. The 42,254 spectators at the “Milwaukee Mile” must have witnessed more overtaking during that 97 minute race alone than in decades of Formula One Racing.
