TL;DR
Patricio O'Ward set the fastest time in the first practice session on the new 1.7-mile, nine-turn street circuit in Detroit, ahead of Scott Dixon and Alexander Rossi. The session was red-flagged six times due to various incidents, including O'Ward stalling after a spin-turn went awry. The new track features a split pitlane and caused bottoming and braking instability issues for drivers.
