Paddock Buzz: Santino Ferrucci Continues Foyt's Recent Resurgence

INDYCAR Santino Ferrucci made his NTT INDYCAR SERIES debut in 2018 at Belle Isle Park in Detroit with Dale Coyne Racing. Fast-forward to Sunday's Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix presented by Lear, and Ferrucci delivered the best result of his INDYCAR SERIES career, finishing second in the No. 14 Sexton Properties/AJ Foyt Racing Chevrolet. 'Huge shoutout to this whole team,' Ferrucci said. This is the second consecutive week an A.J. Foyt Enterprises entry has finished runner-up. David Malukas secured second place in the No. 4 Clarience Technologies Chevrolet in the 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge on May 25. Ferrucci's podium finish on the nine-turn, 1.645-mile Detroit street circuit also represents the team's best road or street course result since Takuma Sato finished second in 2015 at Belle Isle. But Ferrucci admitted frustration that his task to reach the front was made more difficult because he qualified 21st Saturday. 'I struggled in qualifying,' Ferrucci said. 'I made a lot of mistakes. I was really hard on myself yesterday. I thought it was all on me.' Ferrucci steadily worked his way through the field during Sunday's race, but a pivotal moment came on Lap 67 when Callum Ilott crashed in Turn 1, bringing out a caution. Ferrucci had just made his final pit stop on Lap 65, and with many of the leaders still needing to stop, the caution allowed him to cycle to the front when they pitted under yellow on Lap 69. He held the lead until Lap 78 when Kyle Kirkwood made the race-defining move to take over the top spot. Kirkwood went on to secure his fourth career victory and second of the 2025 season, both coming on street circuits after also winning the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach on April 13. 'The pit stops were phenomenal,' Ferrucci said. 'The stand was amazing. Perfect strategy. I just got lucky with that yellow.' The result capped off a historic two-week stretch for A.J. Foyt Enterprises, marking the first time since 2013 the team has finished on the podium in back-to-back races. That year, Takuma Sato won at Long Beach and followed with a runner-up finish in Brazil. Frustrated O'Ward Still Gains Points Pato O'Ward turned a challenging weekend into a solid result by climbing 11 positions from 18th to finish seventh Sunday in the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet. 'We survived it,' O'Ward said. 'It's been the worst performance weekend I've probably ever had in INDYCAR, really. We legit qualified 18th on just pure pace. We've had other times where we've been back there, but it's always been because of an issue, or I made a mistake here and there. This one was truly where we deserved to be.' Despite his frustrations, O'Ward made the most of the race through smart strategy and tire management. He and Josef Newgarden were the only two drivers in the 27-car field to start the race on Firestone Firehawk primary tires, then follow with another stint on the same compound, opting for durability over early pace. O'Ward pitted on Lap 53 to switch to the softer alternate tires, but when the caution came on Lap 67 due to Ilott's crash, it allowed him to pit again with the leaders and return to the more durable primary tire. That strategic move kept him in the top 10 mix during the closing laps. The seventh-place finish gave O'Ward a much-needed 22-point gain on championship leader Alex Palou, who crashed in the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda on Lap 72. O'Ward heads into the Bommarito Automotive Group 500 presented by Axalta and Valvoline on June 15 at World Wide Technology Raceway second in the standings, trailing Palou by 90 points. 'That's a positive considering where we were starting,' O'Ward said. 'There's plenty of racing to go. There's more championship left than what we've done. I think that there's a lot of points on the table, and you can't expect (Alex) Palou to be making a lot of mistakes.' Late Caution Costs Power Potential Podium Will Power was on track for a runner-up finish in Sunday's race, but late-race cautions and a challenging restart dropped him to fourth in the No. 12 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet. Power was running second on the primary pit strategy before the Lap 67 caution triggered by Ilott's crash. That yellow shuffled the field, as Ferrucci, Kyffin Simpson and Marcus Armstrong had already pit and cycled ahead. Power exited pit lane behind Kirkwood but rejoined the race in fifth. By Lap 77, the running order was Ferrucci, Kirkwood, Simpson, Power and Colton Herta. Power made swift moves to get around Simpson and Ferrucci just before another major incident on Lap 83 when Louis Foster suffered a mechanical failure entering Turn 3, colliding with Felix Rosenqvist in a frightening crash. Foster walked away uninjured, and Rosenqvist was seen and released from the infield care center following evaluation. The race was red-flagged with Power sitting in second, but that moment turned out to be his undoing. On the restart with 11 laps to go, his car struggled on cold tires, and he lost positions, first to Ferrucci, then to Herta – ultimately settling for fourth. 'My car was very tough on the restart,' Power said. 'We were as good as them once our tires were warmed up but struggled before. It was almost like I'm driving on snow.' While Power acknowledged he likely didn't have the pace to challenge Kirkwood for the win, he believes he could have held second without the late cautions. Still, the result marked a significant personal milestone, earning his 140th career top-five finish, moving him past Michael Andretti (139) and tying him with Al Unser for sixth on the all-time INDYCAR SERIES list. 'A little disappointed I didn't get a podium, but obviously results really matter for me at the moment,' Power said. Simpson Earns Career-Best Fifth Simpson is establishing himself on street courses in his second season in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. After earning a then career-best 10th-place finish at the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach on April 13, the young driver took another leap forward by finishing fifth in Sunday's race, his best result in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. The turning point came during Sunday morning's final practice session, where Simpson and his Chip Ganassi Racing team discovered Firestone alternate tires dramatically improved the performance of his No. 8 Ridgeline Chip Ganassi Racing Honda. 'We found that the alternate tire really made the car come alive,' Simpson said. Capitalizing on that knowledge, the team opted for two mid-race stints on the alternates, giving Simpson the grip and speed to move up the order. He made his final pit stop two laps before the Lap 67 caution brought out by Ilott's crash, which handed him crucial track position as others pitted under yellow. The strategy paid off, and Simpson stayed in the mix with the frontrunners for the remainder of the race, ultimately delivering a strong top-five result and building momentum as the series heads toward the summer stretch. Odds and Ends The last time prior to Sunday that three American-born drivers swept the podium in Detroit came in 1995 with Robby Gordon, Jimmy Vasser and Scott Pruett. The last time three Americans stood on the podium in any INDYCAR SERIES race was the second race in 2020 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, when Andretti teammates drivers Herta, Alexander Rossi and Ryan Hunter-Reay were in the respective podium spots. Graham Rahal finished fourth that day, too, giving Americans a lockout of the top four spots. Scott Dixon finished 11th, extending his winless streak to 19 races with his last victory coming here in 2024. This is the fourth-longest winless drought of his career, trailing 39 races between 2003 and 2005, 36 races between 2001 and 2002 and 22 races between 2021 and 2022. Kirkwood delivered Andretti Global its 76th career INDYCAR SERIES victory. Chip Ganassi Racing and Andretti Global have three podium finishes each since the series returned downtown in Detroit in 2023. Team Penske, A.J. Foyt Enterprises and Arrow McLaren each have one. Kirkwood has a 2.33 average finish on street courses this season. The race featured 261 on-track passes, a record for this downtown circuit and the second-highest total in the history of the event, including races on Belle Isle. The race also featured an event record 181 on-track passes for position. recommended

Instant Recall: 109th Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge

INDYCAR Can an Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge be predictable and unpredictable? Sunday's certainly was. Chip Ganassi Racing's Alex Palou was the heavy favorite to win the 109th Running, and he did. Perhaps his drive in the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda wasn't as dominating as his other NTT INDYCAR SERIES victories in recent years, but he executed in the closing laps like the series champion he is. He led the final 14 laps after passing Andretti Global's Marcus Ericsson approaching Turn 1 on Lap 187. Palou has been worthy of a place on the Borg-Warner Trophy almost since the moment he joined Chip Ganassi's team in 2021. That first year, Palou was leading two laps from the checkered flag only to have Helio Castroneves wiggle past. The next year, an inopportune mid-pace caution sent the Spaniard, who was leading, to 30th in the order. Palou scrambled back to finish ninth, and his story was similar in 2023 when he charged back to finish fourth after taking pit road contact from Rinus VeeKay. Last year he finished fifth. Palou's average finish in the past five '500s' is 4.2, and his mark in the six series races this year is 1.17. So, yeah, it's not a surprise that he drank the milk in Victory Lane. Other expected happenings on Sunday: Team Penske's Josef Newgarden of Team Penske drove like the two-time '500' winner he is. While forced to start on the last row due to penalties assessed in PPG Presented Armed Forces Qualifying, Newgarden astutely held back at the drop of the initial green flag and avoided Marco Andretti's spin, and he then marched forward. Many thought that if Newgarden could be in the top 10 by Lap 100, he'd been squarely in the hunt for the unprecedented three-peat. He was 10th. Newgarden was in sixth on Lap 132 when he realized something was amiss with the No. 2 Shell V-Power NiTRO+ Team Penske Chevrolet. A fuel pressure issue ended his day. Aside from that, it was the day everyone expected. The final results won't reflect how well 2022 '500' winner Ericsson drove in the No. 28 Allegra Honda of Andretti Global. He led 17 laps and appeared to have finished second for the second time in three years before his car failed post-race technical inspection. History will show him 31st of 33. Regardless, Ericsson showed that he continues to be one of Indy's best drivers of this generation. Like Palou and Newgarden, Arrow McLaren's Pato O'Ward and AJ Foyt Racing's Santino Ferrucci have been among the best finishers in recent '500s,' and they continued that Sunday. O'Ward finished third in the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet to extend his string of success to five top-six finishes in six races, and his 2023 race ended with a crash on Lap 193 trying to pass for second. Ferrucci finished fifth in the No. 14 Homes For Our Troops Chevrolet to notch his record-extending seventh straight top-10 finish to open his Indy career. AJ Foyt Racing continued its excellence in recent '500s.' In addition to Ferrucci, David Malukas finished second in the No. 4 Clarience Technologies Chevrolet as A.J. Foyt's team placed two cars in the top five for the first time since 2000 when Eliseo Salazar finished third with Jeff Ward fourth. As a whole, former Indy winners excelled. Ryan Hunter-Reay (2014) and Takuma Sato (2017 and 2020) combined to lead 99 of the 200 laps. Hunter-Reay, who led 48 laps in the Indy-only entry of DRR-Cusick Motorsports, fell out of contention when his No. 23 DRR CUSICK WEDBUSH SECURITIES Chevrolet, likely out of fuel, stalled on pit exit on Lap 169. Sato slid past his pit box on a stop at Lap 86 in Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing's No. 75 AMADA Honda. Sato finished ninth, Hunter-Reay 21st. Castroneves finished 10th in the No. 06 Cliffs Honda of Meyer Shank Racing w/Curb-Agajanian. Ed Carpenter Racing's Alexander Rossi also had a great chance to win for a second time, which is why he threw his gloves in frustration as his No. 20 ECR Java House Chevrolet caught fire on pit road. The unpredictability of Indy was on full display, especially early. The list of high-profile drivers who had early issues was lengthy. It started with Team Penske's Scott McLaughlin, who crashed his No. 3 Pennzoil Team Penske Chevrolet on the frontstretch warming his tires before the start of the race. He was devastated, describing it as a 'rookie' mistake. Also with early issues were Andretti (a Turn 1 spin in the No. 98 MAPEI/Curb Honda of Andretti Herta w/Marco & Curb-Agajanian), Chip Ganassi Racing's Scott Dixon (a brake fire in the No. 9 PNC Bank Chip Ganassi Racing Honda), Andretti Global's Colton Herta (a pit speed violation on Lap 61 in the No. 26 Gainbridge Honda). Herta finished 14th, Dixon 20th and Andretti 29th. Team Penske's top finisher was Will Power in 16th in the No. 12 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet. None of Roger Penske's cars led a lap, the second time that's happened in the past four years. Team Penske also was shut out among the lap leaders in 2022. Several teams had pit road issues, including Dale Coyne Racing's VeeKay (contact in the No. 18 askROI Honda), Rossi, Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing's Louis Foster (the rookie twice received pit road speeding penalties), DRR-Cusick Motorsports' Jack Harvey (the No. 24 DRR CUSICK INVST Chevrolet got flagged for speeding) and pole sitter Robert Shwartzman (the No. 83 PREMA Racing Chevrolet struck crew members). The post-race technical inspection failures of Ericsson, Andretti Global's Kyle Kirkwood and PREMA Racing's Callum Ilott. They had taken the checkered flag in the second, sixth and 12th positions, but they were dropped to 31st, 32nd and 33rd. There were many other highlights: Palou earned the first oval victory of his career, pushing his total number of wins to 16 to tie him with Dan Wheldon for 31st place on the sport's all-time list. Palou also has a whopping 112-point lead – a gap of more than two races' worth of points – on the field heading to this weekend's Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix presented by Lear as he pursues his third consecutive series championship and fourth in five years. FOX Sports earned impressive ratings, with more than 7 million people tuning in to the race. It's the biggest audience for the '500' since 2008. The sellout crowd that approached 350,000 was the second in modern '500' history, as IMS also sold all grandstand seats for the 100th Indy 500 in 2016. recommended

From crashes to triumph: The 109th running of Indy 500 in photos

The 2025 Indianapolis 500 delivered a thrilling race chock-full of drama from start to finish. In the end, Alex Palou passed Marcus Ericsson for the lead with 14 laps to go, and he held on for the win. It was Palou's first win at The Brickyard — and first win on an oval, period. Prior to his triumph, there were numerous wrecks, pre-race developments and sizzling passes in the latter half of the race. With that, here's a photo recollection of the 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500. Rain, rain, go away The 2025 Indianapolis 500 didn't start on time due to weather in the area. The pace lap for America Before the start of the race, the Indy 500 honored Memorial Day and the U.S. Army's 250th birthday with a helicopter flyover. McLaughlin's race is over very early Scott McLaughlin's day ended before it even started when he wrecked on the pace lap. McLaughlin called it "the worst moment of my life." Soon after, Andretti hits the wall On Lap 4 of the race, Marco Andretti hit the wall, literally. The son of Michael Andretti climbed out of his car and the 20th Indianapolis 500 race of his career was over in a flash. Pole-sitter Shwartzman's day ends after pit crew crash Robert Shwartzman, who started the race in first place, finished 29th after an issue on pit road in which his car collided with members of his team. Shwartzman said it was a "scary moment," though luckily no one was seriously injured. Another scary pit road incident Alexander Rossi's car briefly caught on fire in his pit stall, and luckily Rossi and his crew were fine. But at that point, Rossi, the winner of the 2016 Indy 500, had to call it a day. No "Double" for Larson Kyle Larson's car spun out of control on Lap 91 and hit the wall. Larson aspired to complete both the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, May 25, but he couldn't quite get it done. No three-peat for Newgarden, either Josef Newgarden's quest to become the first back-to-back-to-back Indy 500 winner came up short. To be fair, it's not an easy feat (just ask the Kansas City Chiefs). Ericsson gets passed for first place Ericsson finished the Indianapolis 500 in second place after being passed by Palou, the eventual winner, with 14 laps to go. Ericsson, the 2022 Indy 500 champ, said it was "pretty painful" losing the race. He's got milk Palou drank the ceremonial milk after his first win at the Indianapolis 500 — whole milk was his choice. Palou seals his historic win with a kiss Palou, who became the first Spaniard to ever win the Indy 500, participated in one more IMS tradition after celebrating his victory: kissing the bricks.
