Zilisk tried to fight back, but it was too late as van Gisbergen captured the checker flag.
Van Gisbergen said, “When the strategy went wrong, it was going to be a lost reason, but it worked well.” “Thanks to JRM, the car was a rocket.”
Talking more on the strategy, SVG said: “I knew what we were going to do, but when so many cars did not follow us, it was a little concern, but then we had a tire’s grip at the end. In fact, there was a good fight with everyone. I enjoyed it.”
He also praised the zilisk, “a great young driver … said … I knew it was my opportunity (to pass it) and took it. It was a terrible 1-2 for the team.”

There were no track-blocking debris during the race, but a lot of events. The van Gisbergen dominated from the beginning, but opted to go on an alternative strategy, in which almost spent it, stay out at the end of Stage 1. However, the caution of a debris with some laps to go to stage 2 before he could stop his prescribed later, forced his hand.
Van Gisbergen left the lead and came down to Pit Road for his alone stop of the race, which came to 19th place to resume. While Sheldon Creed claimed stage 2 wins, SVG quickly rose to 13th position.
As the last phase was going on, the creed remained under control, while the van Gisbergen reached the seventh position. When Thomas crashed in Annunjiata Turn 2, the caution flew once again. Taylor Gray tried to escape the rubble, but was pushed.
On the following restarted, van Gisbergen continued his further push as the zilisk race went into the lead. With some help of the creed, who pulled to him, SVG moved to second place with nine laps to go. She was more than 3.5 seconds from Zilisch, and when she began chipping on it, another precaution would bring the teammates of the team together for the final performance.
Andre Castro filled it into the tire, established the last restart of the race, where SVG forced its way by Zilisk. Van Gisbergen also earned a pole position for the cup race in Chicago, so he will try to complete the weekend sweep on Sunday.
