Ericsson strikes late to win chaotic Indy Markham debut

Marcus Ericsson claimed his first victory of the 2026 NTT IndyCar Series season in a chaotic inaugural Indy Markham, becoming the first IndyCar winner at the new circuit following the championship’s move from Toronto.

The Swede pulled clear to win by 7.620 seconds, with Grosjean securing second. Will Power completed a remarkable recovery from last on the grid to finish third. Álex Palou took fourth after an eventful race, while Pato O’Ward recovered from 23rd and opening-lap contact to complete the top five in a dramatic first IndyCar race at Markham.

Lundgaard secures second in Mid-Ohio despite struggles
