Kyle Kirkwood was left settling for second after a run of cautions hindered a chance at victory in Sunday’s chaotic IndyCar Series round on the streets of Detroit.
The final stint saw the Florida native equipped with a fresh set of the softer alternate tires, opposite of race leader Alex Palou. With a sense of urgency to take advantage of maximum grip on the compound, Kirkwood, running second, managed to erase a 2s gap in roughly three laps before a caution came on Lap 66 of 100.
