Red Hot and Red Flagged – IndyCar at Nashville
With hot and humid conditions in downtown Nashville during an 80-lap race that was remarkable for its lack of yellow flags – which is why it’s called Crashville – Kyle Kirkwood in a Honda* won 2023 at the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix.
There were tire marbles all over the course just off the racing line because of the unexpected amount of green flag laps. “It was like going on ice,” said Felix Rosenqvist, (driver of the No. 6 Chevrolet) at Arrow McLaren.

“What an amazing job by everybody,” Palou said. Palou is known for his racing smarts and the ability to adjust to conditions to earn points. “They gave me everything we needed this weekend to win. I told you yesterday we had a really, really fast car. Our strategy changed a lot during that first yellow, but I’m so glad we got that No. 10 in Victory Lane. It’s been 138 days since Nashville (2024 season finale), and I’ve been dreaming about this every single night,” said Palou, a charming and thoughtful Spaniard. Continue reading →
