Kimball enjoys smooth day and sixth-place Road America finish
Via IndyCar.com
Charlie Kimball can rest a bit easier tonight.
The 32-year-old Californian put together a complete race to score a season-best finish of sixth place today in the KOHLER Grand Prix at Road America.
Plagued by a myriad of issues throughout the 2017 Verizon IndyCar Series campaign, Kimball has endured five finishes outside the top 20. Perhaps most notable came two weeks ago in the Rainguard Water Sealers 600 at Texas Motor Speedway, when he won the Verizon P1 Award and led 26 laps before a mechanical failure ended his night just 41 laps into the race.
With only a pair of eighth-place finishes entering today, the driver of the No. 83 Tresiba Honda for Chip Ganassi Racing looked relieved more than anything after the race.
“Yeah, it was a great race,” Kimball said.
