“We finished the race here in Detroit. There was a lot of chaos out there. There’s still a lot to learn. We struggled all race, but we moved up a few spots and brought the car home in one piece and that’s the positive to take away from today. Now I’m looking forward to the next one at Road America at a track I know and love.”

Detroit, MI (Sunday, June 4, 2023) – David Malukas (#18 HMD Dale Coyne Racing with HMD Motorsports) was running a strong race on Sunday at the Detroit Grand Prix but came up short when his day ended on Lap 87 after making contact with the Turn 9 wall.

“That wasn’t how I wanted to see our race end today. I feel bad for the Dale Coyne Racing with HMD crew. They’ve been working really hard, and I was looking forward to bringing the car home and really wanted to stay out of trouble today. That said, the car felt good, and we had a good race pace after struggling in practice this weekend. Now we get a weekend off to refocus and get ready for Road America in a couple of weeks.”
