Fourth Win of the Season
Palou won the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix NTT IndyCar Series race at the Detroit Street Circuit on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
Palou would start from the pole and control the early parts of the race. However, some differing tire strategies would shuffle things at the front during the middle portion of the race. Palou would stay within reach of the lead and soon back into it. Down the stretch the Chip Ganassi Racing star would hold off a strong Kyle Kirkwood who was on fading soft tires. The 3-second victory would give Palou his forth win of the season.
