IndyCar Series Detroit Grand Prix channel, start time, leaderboard, crashes, starting grid
The IndyCar Series runs the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix today, a 100-lap race on a 9-turn, 1.645-mile downtown street layout. Colton Herta won pole position here for the second straight year, and Scott Dixon and Graham Rahal were assessed six-position starting grid penalties for unapproved engine changes. Nathan Brown is your best IndyCar follow, and sign up for IndyStar's motorsports newsletter. We will have leaderboard updates and highlights throughout, so feel free to hit refresh. Row 1 1, Colton Herta 2, David Malukas Row 2 3, Kyle Kirkwood 4, Christian Lundgaard Row 3 5, Alex Palou 6, Rinus Veekay Row 4 7, Scott McLaughlin 8, Will Power Row 5 9, Marcus Armstrong 10, Christian Rasmussen Row 6 11, Graham Rahal (had 5th-best qualifying effort) 12, Marcus Ericsson Row 7 13, Louis Foster 14, Felix Rosenqvist Row 8 15, Alexander Rossi 16, Scott Dixon (had 10th-best qualifying result) Row 9 17, Callum Ilott 18, Pato O'Ward Row 10 19, Kyffin Simpson 20, Jacob Abel Row 11 21, Santino Ferrucci 22, Robert Shwartzman Row 12 23, Devlin DeFrancesco 24, Josef Newgarden Row 13 25, Conor Daly 26, Sting Ray Robb Row 14 27, Nolan Siegel Push-to-pass: 150 total seconds, in increments up to 15 seconds. Tire allotment: Five sets of primary tires (six for rookies) and five sets of alternate tires. Teams must use one set of primary tires and one set of new alternate tires for at least two laps in the race. Alex Palou, who has won five of the six races. Kyle Kirkwood has one win. Scott Dixon avoided the crashes and penalties on the tight downtown street course to come away with his 58th career win. From Nathan Brown, IndyStar Picking Alex Palou is so obvious that we're barring him from this portion of the preview for a while. Pato O'Ward sits second and Christian Lundgaard third in points, but they're more than two races' worth of max points behind Palou. Who makes a move in the points standings? Marcus Ericsson would have been 10th in points after crossing the finish line second in the Indianapolis 500, but he stands 20th after his car failed post-race tech inspection. He earned his lone podium finish in 2024 in Detroit, and with a similar performance this weekend, Ericsson makes up a lot of the ground he lost in the championship standings in Indy. Something you didn't see coming: At a track where he started on pole last year, but only finished 19th, Detroit seems like as good a track as any for Colton Herta to find some momentum. He sits just 9th in the championship standings with a single top-5 finish. However, the narrow streets of Detroit can be cruel, and somehow Herta and the No. 26 crew leave with a tough result unbecoming of the traditionally dominant street course program of Andretti Global.

Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix start time; what is the IndyCar schedule on the Detroit GP track?
The IndyCar Series completes a five-week stretch of on-track action with the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix, a 100-lap race on a 9-turn, 1.645-mile downtown street layout. Push-to-pass: 150 total seconds, in increments up to 15 seconds Tire allotment: Five sets of primary tires (six for rookies) and five sets of alternate tires. Teams must use one set of primary tires and one set of new alternate tires for at least two laps in the race. Alex Palou. Not sure there's much else to say, though Kyle Kirkwood beat him that one time. Scott Dixon stayed out of the way of all the crashes and penalties on the tight downtown street course to come away with his 58th career win. From Nathan Brown, IndyStar Picking Alex Palou is so obvious that we're barring him from this portion of the preview for a while. Pato O'Ward sits second and Christian Lundgaard third in points, but they're more than two races' worth of max points behind Palou. Who makes a move in the points standings? Marcus Ericsson would have been 10th in points after crossing the finish line second in the Indianapolis 500, but he stands 20th after his car failed post-race tech inspection. He earned his lone podium finish in 2024 in Detroit, and with a similar performance this weekend, Ericsson makes up a lot of the ground he lost in the championship standings in Indy. Surprising qualifying performance: Though Rinus Veekay has had some strong qualifying performances in his first year with Dale Coyne Racing, he hasn't been consistent. But in his first race weekend with Michael Cannon as engineer, Veekay narrowly misses out on the Fast 6, but sets himself up for a strong Sunday. Something you didn't see coming: At a track where he started on pole last year, but only finished 19th, Detroit seems like as good a track as any for Colton Herta to find some momentum. He sits just 9th in the championship standings with a single top-5 finish.

Who will win pole position at the IndyCar Sonsio Grand Prix at Indianapolis? Live qualifying updates today, 5/9/25
The IndyCar Series comes to Indianapolis Motor Speedway this weekend for an 85-lap race on the 14-turn, 2.439-mile road course that includes the front straightaway of the oval track. Qualifying is Friday, May 9, and the race is Saturday, May 10. Graham Rahal had the best lap over two Friday practice sessions, followed by rookie Louis Foster. IndyCar points leader Alex Palou, who was third overall, had the top lap in the first session. Nathan Brown is your best IndyCar follow, and keep up all month with IndyStar's motorsports newsletter. We will have updates throughout qualifying, so hit refresh like it's push-to-pass. The 27-car field is divided into two groups based on practice times, and the top six from each group advances to the second round. After a session with the 12 advancing cars, the field is halved to the Fast Six, where one final session will determine the pole position winner. From Nathan Brown, IndyStar Pole position winner: Colton Herta has been a bit of an under-the-radar storyline this year, largely due to race-day issues. Herta hasn't qualified worse than 4th through four races. Though qualifying hasn't been Andretti Global's strong suit recently at the IMS road course, Herta and the No. 26 team make it five straight Fast Six appearances, and narrowly edge Alex Palou, Christian Lundgaard, Pato O'Ward, Felix Rosenqvist and Scott McLaughlin.
