President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will attend the IndyCar Freedom 250 Grand Prix Race today. The White House stated the president will lead the honorary lap in his motorcade ahead of the race.

Planners have prepared a racetrack through the streets of downtown Washington, D.C., going from the U.S. Capitol Building around the National Mall in a seven-turn race. The race will consist of 150 laps around the 1.7-mile track, passing landmarks including the National Archives, the National Gallery of Art, and the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. Practice laps were run through the course on Saturday.

The IndyCar race is the culmination of the Freedom250 celebratory events commemorating the United States’ semiquincentennial anniversary.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

• For President and Mrs. Trump as they participate in the semiquincentennial event.
• For the president and members of his Cabinet to seek the Lord’s direction as they set administration policies.
• For the safety of the race car drivers and the spectators as the Freedom250 Grand Prix runs.
