“I knew we had a chance,” Lundgaard said after the early contact  sent him to the back of the field. “I knew how this race panned out last year, and I knew it was all about just sticking in the race.

When the race resumed at 9:05 p.m. local time, track conditions had changed significantly because of the rain-cleaned asphalt. There was better adhesion with lower temperatures after sundown.
