The Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix lived up to its moniker with chaos, carnage and short tempers, with Alex Palou calmly navigating the 1.645-mile, nine-turn downtown street circuit to his fourth win of the IndyCar season.
After starting on pole in the #10 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda, Palou was in control throughout and led 71 of 100 laps. He also showed poise and remained unflappable during the final three restarts - Lap 71, Lap 75, and Lap 82 - when fending off Andretti Global’s Kyle Kirkwood despite being on the less preferred harder primary tire compound.
