Road America IndyCar winner Alex Palou says runner-up Josef Newgarden has apologised to him for their collision in Sunday’s race.Chip Ganassi Racing’s Palou was running second to Andretti Autosport’s Colton Herta when he ran wide at Turn 5 just before half distance, allowing Team Penske’s Newgarden to get a run on him into the uphill left-hander at Turn 6.

I did that to somebody, I think it was St. Pete.
