Session Notes
- Practice 2, like the weekend's first session, got off to a late start with a green flag five minutes after the scheduled start time of 8:30 a.m. EDT. INDYCAR still allowed for the full one-hour window for the 45-minute practice.
- The amount of red-flag time from five separate on-track incidents totaled 25 minutes and one second, using up the 15-minute buffer and eating into almost 10 minutes of green-flag track time.
- Three minutes into the session, with only two drivers having turned timed laps, the No. 14 AJ Foyt Racing Chevrolet driven by Kyle Kirkwood got into the tire barrer in Turn 7 after making contact with the No. 18 Dale Coyne Racing with HMD Honda of David Malukas entering the corner. Practice resumed eight minutes later.
- Seventeen minutes after going green following the first red flag, practice stopped for the No. 48 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda of Jimmie Johnson which spun and stopped on course in Turn 2. The incident brought out a short two-minute red flag.
- At 9:10 a.m., the No. 4 AJ Foyt Racing Chevrolet driven by Dalton Kellett made hard left-side contact in Turn 13. The stoppage lasted for four minutes.
- Thirteen minutes after Kellett's crash, the No. 12 Team Penske Chevrolet of Will Power spun and stopped on course at the exit of Turn 12. The incident stoped track activity for three minutes.
- The session's final red flag, displayed three minutes before the end of the one-hour window, was for the No. 60 Meyer Shank Racing Honda of Simon Pagenaud which stopped on track in Turn 6. The session resumed with one minute remaining on the clock.
- All drivers involved in the red flags were penalized five minutes by INDYCAR, including Malukas.
- Alexander Rossi ended the session with a 1:15.8101 which proved to be the fastest lap.

Session Notes
- Practice 1, the first session of the final NTT IndyCar Series race weekend on Belle Isle, began two minutes later than its 3:30 p.m. EDT scheduled start time due to equipment that needed to be cleared.

- Practice was slowed by two red flags:
- Fifteen minutes after the green flag, the No. 4 AJ Foyt Racing Chevrolet of Dalton Kellett stopped on course in Turn 5 bringing out a short three-minute red flag.
- Fifteen minutes after the session's resumption, it was stopped for contact involving the No. 7 Arrow McLaren SP Chevrolet of Felix Rosenqvist in Turn 2.
- Both drivers who caused red flags were handed five-minute time penalties by INDYCAR. Simon Pagenaud was also penalized five minutes for being involved in the second red flag.
- At the conclusion of Practice 1, Kyle Kirkwood's 1:16.1345 was fastest overall.
