I believe there were more than one tire compound choice available. Leary even said in his interview they chose a soft tire and it hurt them. Don't see how Hoosier is to blame here.

The track took rubber coming off the corners which is why Leary got passed by Cottle. He tried to block and slipped out of the rubber. Think if most teams would have known it would rubber up like that we would have seen some different tire choices.
