On the opposite end of the spectrum was Alex Palou. One week after he snagged a victory at the expense of David Malukas and Josef Newgarden, Palou found himself on the wrong strategy in Toronto. A decision to start on primaries and push the first stint long paid costly for himself, Scott Dixon and Malukas.

The early pit stops has really mixed up the grid - Herta currently sits 15th while Pato is in 12th. Palou leads the field away off the grid, O'Ward gets ahead of Sting Ray Robb and leads the early pitters.
