Linus rounded off the last Indy Lights event before the summer break with another P4 finish in Sunday’s Race 2 at Mid-Ohio, leaving the meeting holding third in the drivers’ standings.
Starting the weekend finale in third, Linus maintained his position until shortly after a safety car restart, when he went deep into The Keyhole hairpin and dropped a place to team-mate David Malukas.
From there, the order remained unchanged, with Linus bringing the car home in fourth for the second day in succession.
Kyle Kirkwood and Danial Frost sealed a 1-2 victory for Andretti Autosport.
Kirkwood now leads the standings, 11 points ahead of Malukas and 25 ahead of Linus heading into the seven-week summer break.
