Driving a fifth car for Andretti Autosport, the 21-year-old Colombian qualified and finished second, beating his four team-mates, who include reigning champion Ryan Hunter-Reay.
Munoz currently leads the Indy Lights standings by 27 points, having won two of this season’s four races so far, driving for Andretti’s junior arm.
“Right now, let’s wait to see how the future will work for me,” said Munoz.
“Right now I’m thinking Indy Lights. I have to do my job and my job is that I’m still Indy Lights championship leader.
“This was my main goal since I started the year. [Indy] was one race more to have more experience and it came out really good, I think better than expected.”
He admitted to feeling some disappointment at not having a chance to try to pass Tony Kanaan for victory when a yellow came out on the penultimate lap.
“I really wanted to fight for the win. Maybe I could win, maybe not, but I really wanted to fight,” Munoz said.
“I have nothing to be ashamed of. To be second and a rookie is a great job.”
