Chip Ganassi Racing’s Alex Palou scored his first IndyCar win of 2023 on the Indianapolis road course and claimed the points lead as polesitter Christian Lundgaard fell to fourth.Palou's team played the tire strategy perfectly to allow the 2021 champion to lead 52 of the 85 laps, while McLaren team-mates Pato O’Ward and Alexander Rossi were able to pass Lundgaard's Rahal Letterman Lanigan car to complete the podium.
Jack Harvey had also passed Rosenqvist to run third, while further around the opening lap Rossi – up from 10Racing was interrupted by yellows flew retrieve the two Dale Coyne Racing cars of David Malukas and Sting Ray Robb which collided at Turn 7, allowing Scott McLaughlin and Romain Grosjean to pit for new front wings.
Lundgaard closed on Palou when his softer tyres started to go off, prompting Palou and fellow alternate starter Rossi pitted on lap 18. Lundgaard followed them in two laps later for a set of alternates, but emerged two seconds behind Palou, as Rosenqvist and O’Ward went two laps longer. Palou soon came back at Lundgaard, who had lost the lead by the time he came in for a second set of red tyres. O'Ward's undercut of both Palou and Lundgaard only gave him a temporary lead before both navigated a route past.
