Ericsson wins crash-filled race

Marcus Ericsson raced to his first IndyCar victory in the action-packed opener of the doubleheader at the Raceway at Belle Isle Park in Detroit.

Ericsson benefitted from the second red-flag stoppage, this one with six laps remaining when Romain Grosjean crashed in Turn 9. An earlier accident sent Felix Rosenqvist to a hospital

for overnight evaluation and caused a 78-minute stoppage to repair the tire barrier and concrete wall damaged when what appeared to be a stuck throttle sent Rosenqvist smashing into the wall. Later, Kevin Magnussen started from the pole in a Cadillac and Renger van der Zande closed out the win for the first overall IMSA victory for a Chip Ganassi car since 2015.
