Josef Newgarden (Penske) signed his third victory of the 2022 IndyCar season at the Road America Grand Prix this Sunday, June 12. Josef Newgarden, who set the second fastest time in qualifying the day before, was faster than poleman Alexander Rossi (Andretti, 3rd).
The winner of the 2022 Indianapolis 500 Miles, Marcus Ericsson (Chip Ganassi Racing) converted his eighth place on the grid into third under the checkered flag. The Swede thus recovers the lead in the Drivers’ championship, helped it is true by the collision suffered by the former leader, Will Power (Penske, 19th).
Contact between @12WillPower and @DevlinDeFran pushed the championship leader into the wall.
The No. 12 pits for damage.

In the French clan, Romain Grosjean (Andretti) reached the finish at the foot of the podium, allowing him to put an end to a series of poor performances. His compatriot Simon Pagenaud (Meyer Shank Racing) put on a show, but could not do better than a modest 12th position:
