Despite missing the podium, Palou expanded his lead in the driver rankings to 133 points over Kyle Kirkwood. Palou is chasing his fifth IndyCar title.

Kirkwood went out in the 53rd lap when he pinged off the inside wall at Turn 3 and then collided with the outside wall.

Louis Foster was the fastest car in practice and qualifying, earning his first pole of the season.

Foster predicted pre-race that there would be “carnage” on the 12-turn, 3.52-kilometre road course around downtown Markham that runs between Kennedy Road, Enterprise Boulevard, Unionville GO tracks and Highway 407.

That prediction was prescient as Foster went out early on Sunday. He crashed in the 43rd lap when he clipped the inside wall after passing Ericsson then went nose-first into the outside wall of Turn 3.
