Ericsson Hit Us - 2026 IndyCar Grand Prix of Markham Review

Just what IndyCar needed in their crazy gauntlet speedrun to the end of the season - An absolutely chaotic Markham debut weekend.

Dre and RJ Review what was a hectic weekend in Canada, a weekend that didn't even start on time due to promoter mistakes and the entriety of Friday being cancelled due to a lack of track barriers and tyres in place. Welp. 

Once we did get going, Marcus Ericsson would win his 5th IndyCar race via some stratgic brilliance in a sea of cautions -  Six of them in a 40-lap spell, including Mick Schumacher, polesitter Louis Foster and street king Kyle Kirkwood all in the wall for making key mistakes. It was a race that was surrounded by dramatics, and ended up in a brilliant stratregic convergence as Ericsson chased down his teammate Will Power, Alex Palou and Romain Grosjean in the closing laps when it mattered most. But was it enough to save a sketchy first running in Markham?
