Canadian James Hinchcliffe went from near the back of the pack to a season-best third place during Sunday's Big Machine Music City Grand Prix.
Canadian IndyCar driver James Hinchcliffe was stopped on the track 20 laps into the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix. By the end of Sunday's race, he was standing on the podium.
Chip Ganassi Racing's Marcus Ericsson and Scott Dixon were 1-2 followed by Hinchcliffe, who posted his first top-10 finish of the year and best result since Iowa in 2019. “It was eventful,” he added. “We were at the back, front, kind of ran a little bit of everywhere today, in the middle. ... We probably had a few too many yellows for what we would have wanted to put on a good show for everyone here.”
“As much as we hate that happening, I thought they were going to drive the field through pit lane, until we cleared up the traffic jam, we were going to be three, four laps down and kind of out of it,” Hinchcliffe said. “Credit to IndyCar for not eliminating all eight of us, whatever it was, that were stuck back there. We had no damage. We avoided all the carnage. The traffic just blocked.
