The conversation might not have even lasted 10 seconds. It was more of an exchange, really, but whatever Chip Ganassi said to Alex Palou after Sunday's, Aug. 7, 2022, race in Nashville was their first direct conversation since the reigning IndyCar champion said he was leaving the team. There's three races left in the season, Palou is in the thick of the title hunt and Ganassi is suing him. (AP Photo/Tom E.
