The NTT IndyCar Series was under the lights at World Wide Technology Raceway on Sunday.

It would be Kyle Kirkwood who outlasted a wild night, that saw 14 different drivers lead the race.

It’s Kirkwood’s third win of the season, and his first career oval victory.

Second was Pato O’Ward who was able to narrow his deficit to points leader Alex Palou.

Palau was eighth on the night and now sits 77-points clear of O’Ward going to Road America.

Palau had previously led by more than 100 points.
